Jay CongerGUEST
These are very, very important.
Jay CongerGUEST
There's this wonderful story of the two entrepreneurs behind the business called Rent the Runway.
Jay CongerGUEST
They have their MBAs.
Jay CongerGUEST
They have this vision, which is we are going to create a business where you can rent designer dresses for evenings, for proms, for being invited to a ball or charity event.
Jay CongerGUEST
Running small prototype pilots is very powerful.
Jay CongerGUEST
So in the book, I talk about Rent the Runway, which is based, I think, in Manhattan, where you can rent designer dresses.
Jay CongerGUEST
The two entrepreneurs who started that, by the way, were Harvard Business School grads who had no, let me say that again, no experience in fashion.
Ben BrooksHOST
It was not their thing that they were tastemakers of fashion.
Julia MeadowsGUEST
And so I started this blog to kind of track my journey on how to find the brands that are ethical, how to style them and kind of morphing that into secondhand.
Julia MeadowsGUEST
And then when I became a mom and I was, you know, doing all these other subscription services like Rent the Runway and HelloFresh, I was like, you know what? This would be so much easier if we could do this as a subscription model and solely basis on secondhand.
Julia MeadowsGUEST
And that's it.
Julia MeadowsGUEST
And then just kind of teach people how to style themselves through secondhand, through all the trial and error that I went through and just giving them that like kind of sneak peek into what having a stylist is like, because that's really a luxury item for a lot of people.
Nishtha TripathiGUEST
And I could see and I was again, like another realization there, like the fashion startup.
Nishtha TripathiGUEST
So I had seen Rent the Runway becoming very successful in New York when I was coming back.
Nishtha TripathiGUEST
So they used to do fashion rentals.
Nishtha TripathiGUEST
Like, you know, very expensive dresses, you can rent it out because why buy it when you're going to wear only two or three times? And I felt that was a perfect use case for India also.
