Rosie De Malmanche: Founder of Online Rental Store, Our Closet
Manage episode 420953159 series 3577101
Founded in 2018 by Rosie De Malmanche in Australia, Our Closet offers an endless closet at your fingertips. Rosie was renting out her extensive wardrobe as a way to make some extra money when a few of her friends started asking to rent out their clothes as well and she saw an opportunity to create a platform where clothes could be rented in a safe and secure way whilst still being available for the owner to wear too.
Our Closet is a way to make some money back on your purchases which rent for around 20% of the purchase price, rent them out 5 times and you’ve made your money back. Rent them 6 times, you’re making money!! It is also an opportunity to rent a gorgeous designer outfit for a fraction of the retail price, take that killer Insta snap and move on to the next outfit, which helps cut down on the fast fashion going straight to landfill.
Before buying a new outfit, Rosie wants us to consider: Will I wear this again? Would someone else want to wear it? For this price, could I rent something from my favourite luxury designer instead?
