Rent or buy pre-loved for an occasion?

  1. 1

    What you're left with

    A rental goes back after the event. A pre-loved piece is yours to wear again, and if you don't, you can list it on Phir Se and sell it on.

  2. 2

    Fit and alterations

    Rentals usually can't be altered. A piece you own can be tailored to fit you properly, which matters most for fitted gowns, blouses and sherwanis.

  3. 3

    Cost over time

    Renting can cost less for a single night. Buying pre-loved costs more up front, but you can wear it again and recover part of the price by reselling it.

  4. 4

    Timing

    Pre-loved pieces ship across India in about 2–9 days, so leave time for delivery and any alterations before the event.
