'Lavish Labels (Borrowed)!' Lends Luxury Clothing for Style on a Budget

— March 21, 2012 — Luxury
'Lavish Labels (Borrowed)!' is the fashionista-on-a-budget's little secret for staying on trend -- without having to remortgage her house to afford it.

The Beverly Hills boutique has a small and intimate showroom that provides one-on-one service for those looking to get a great look they can borrow for a few days at a fraction of the retail cost.

Each item averages about $100 US and can be kept for up to five days. Some of the designers available include fashion icons Badgley Mischka, Diane von Furstenberg, Betsey Johnson and L'Agence.

Busy jet-setters who are only in town for a few days or travelers cursing their airline for losing their luggage would also benefit from the 'Lavish Labels (Borrowed)!' service. The clothes available are fashion-forward, easily accessible, professionally cleaned upon return, and don't require being steamed to remove all of the wrinkles that have accumulated from being crammed into a suitcase.
Trend Themes
1. Fashion Rental - Opportunity for businesses to offer high-end fashion items for short-term rentals, enabling customers to stay on trend without breaking the bank.
2. Luxury Borrowing - Growing trend of borrowing luxury clothing and accessories for special occasions or everyday wear instead of buying them, creating a more affordable and sustainable fashion consumption model.
3. Convenience Services - Increasing demand for convenient fashion services that cater to busy individuals, such as jet-setters and travelers, by providing access to fashionable clothing without the hassle of luggage or maintenance.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion Retail - Fashion retailers can explore the opportunity of offering rental services for designer clothing to tap into the growing market of budget-conscious consumers who still want to experience luxury.
2. Sharing Economy - Sharing economy platforms can disrupt the fashion industry by providing a platform for individuals to rent out their high-end clothing and accessories, revolutionizing the way people access luxury items.
3. Travel and Hospitality - Travel and hospitality businesses can partner with fashion rental services to enhance the customer experience for travelers, providing them with fashionable alternatives to cope with lost or delayed luggage.
