This company allows you to share your clothes with its online community. Here's how it works: browse through thousands of designer gowns from lenders, then receive a rental within 2-3 days. Afterward, Style Lend handles the dry cleaning and the return shipping. Right now, gowns from Alice + Olivia, Dolce & Gabbana and Nicole Miller are up for grabs.
