Philadelphia fashion bloggers and other fashion personnel gathered on Thursday, August 23rd at the stylish XIX Bar on the 19^th floor of the Hyatt at The Bellevue armed and ready for a night full of cocktails and fashion. Hosted by Rent the Runway, and online site being dubbed as the “Netflix for Fashion,” this event was dedicated to local fashion lovers to unite and enjoy an intimate evening in one of the top 10 markets for Rent the Runway.  Cobblestones and Stilettos, Philadelphia Weekly Style Blog, Philly Style, Skinny Minority, Stylish Thought, and The Buzz Klub were some of the celebrated bloggers and print media present at the event.
 
A little more about the company itself, Rent the Runway was founded by Harvard Business School duo and entrepreneurs Jenn Hymann and Jenny Fleiss to fill the void for fashionistas on a budget. Rent the Runway delivers designer fashion to your door for merely 10-15% of the retail price. You can easily log in, browse their huge selection of designer clothing (and accessories!) and rent the dress of your dreams for only $50-$200. They’ll even ship out two sizes so that you are guaranteed the best fit, and you’re able to keep the items for up to eight nights. The best part is that once you’re done with your dress, simply send it back in a pre-paid package and they’ll take care of the dry cleaning! Rent the Runway is the online closet perfect for all women to still look fashionable at events like graduations, weddings or even a girl’s night out on the town – for only a quarter of the price! And with thousands of dresses from popular designers such as BCBG, Shoshanna, Kate Spade, Vera Wang, and Moschino to choose from, what’s not to love about Rent the Runway?
