West Elm and Rent the Runway Team up for Decor Flexibility

Two well-known names in fashion and decor, Rent the Runway and West Elm, have announced a partnership that may change the way people decorate their homes, just as Rent the Runway changed the way many women fill their closets.

Rent the Runway is a subscription-based service that allows members to rent name-brand clothing, ranging from casual to cocktail attire and handbags. Items can be kept for an evening or for as long as they spark joy.

West Elm is known for its high-quality furniture and decor items with an emphasis on fair trade and sustainability. The two are teaming up for the first time, introducing the flexibility of renting to West Elm customers, and opening up the world of textiles to Rent the Runway members.

West Elm products will be available to Rent the Runway members with Unlimited ($159/month) subscriptions. They will be available in the form of 26 different bundles of bedroom or living-room items, such as quilts, decorative pillows, throws, and shams. The bundles can be selected just as clothing items are, and can also be swapped out whenever the mood strikes, at no extra cost. The partnership begins this summer and you can get more information when it’s available on the Rent the Runway website.
