WHAT IS RWSB?

RENTING WITH SB (RWSB) is Hamilton's destination for designer dress rental — making it easier to wear the dresses you love, without having to own them.

Founded in Hamilton, New Zealand, RWSB has been operating for 5 years, bringing a carefully curated collection of designer dresses to customers across New Zealand.

Our collection features some of the biggest names in fashion, including Bec + Bridge, Shona Joy, SIR the Label, Paris Georgia, Ruby, Aje and many more.

WHY RENT?

Let's be honest — how many times do you actually wear a dress?

You find the dress, wear it to your event, take the photos, and then it sits in your wardrobe waiting for another occasion that may never come.

We think there's a better way.

Renting allows you to wear something new and designer for a fraction of the cost of buying it, without the hassle of:

  • Spending hundreds on a dress you'll only wear once;

  • Trying to resell it afterwards;

  • Dealing with the uncertainty of whether you'll actually be able to resell it; or

  • Having another "one-wear" dress sitting at the back of your wardrobe.

Instead, wear it, love it, return it, and move on to the next one.

DESIGNER DRESSES, WITHOUT THE DESIGNER PRICE TAG

RWSB gives you access to designer pieces that you may not otherwise purchase outright.

Whether you're looking for a dress for a school ball, wedding, birthday, hens party, races, graduation, holiday or your next big event, our collection is designed to give you more options without the commitment of buying.

Our easy online booking calendar means you can secure your rental months in advance or, for those last-minute invitations, book as close as 3 days before your event, subject to availability.

RENTING WITH PURPOSE

We believe renting is a more considered way to enjoy fashion.

By sharing garments between customers, a single designer dress can be worn time and time again instead of being purchased for one occasion and left sitting unworn.

We also make conscious choices within our own business wherever possible.

Our courier bags are compostable, while our custom RWSB packaging bags and information cards are reusable from customer to customer.

It's our little way of making the rental process more sustainable from the moment your order leaves us to the moment it comes back.

SO, WHY RWSB?

Because we believe you shouldn't have to buy a new dress every time you have somewhere to go.

More designer. Less commitment. More outfits. Less wardrobe clutter.

That's RENTING WITH SB. 🤍

Wear it. Love it. Return it.
