Ahh, ski wear. Is it just us, or does it seem mad expensive and… a bit of a pain? If you’ve been before, pulling out all the old gear you haven’t seen for years might well give you the ick. Or if it’s your first time on the slopes, you may not want to invest in a jacket, salopettes, goggles and all the rest of it, only to decide you don’t actually love skiing that much after all.
But don’t despair, ski bunnies – and don’t cancel that ski trip either! Because we have some very good news to share… You can now rent your entire ski wardrobe from some of the best designer brands out there.
If you’re dreaming of a pair of Celine ski goggles, Chanel mittens, the ultimate Perfect Moment ski suit, a pair of classic Moon Boots – or, y’know, all of the above – you’re in for a serious treat. All of the coolest, most covetable designer ski looks can now be (temporarily) yours for a *fraction* of the usual price. Ideal if you want to channel Kylie Jenner’s iconic Chanel snow moment, or go a lil’ more 80s with a Princess Diana-inspired ski look.
There’s some outrageously chic ski wear available on our fave rental platforms, including HURR, Selfridges and By Rotation. ByRo even has its own dedicated ski edit on the app, which has tripled in popularity in the last year, with ‘Rotators’ listing an increased number of gorge ski pieces from their wardrobes. Those Celine goggles? Yours for £15 per day! A liquid metallic Prada ski jacket? Rent it from just £49. It’s a dream come true, tbh.
We’re not surprised that the most popular brands on the app are the big fashion girlie faves – we’re talking Moncler, Goldbergh, Cordova and even Perfect Moment, which has also launched its own rental in partnership with My Wardrobe HQ. So you can now take that celeb-loved scarlet ski suit you’ve been lusting after away with you – without going broke.
Another great thing about the new age of ski wear rentals? It’s more sustainable, too. A recent report showed that fashion rentals reduce CO2 emissions by up to 41% compared to the old-school buy and keep system – and we can’t really argue with that. And with the UK rental market value expected to reach £2.3 billion by 2029 (according to GlobalData), now’s a great time to get in on the eco-friendly action.
“We are constantly innovating and looking for ways to reduce our impact on nature,” says Perfect Moment co-founder and creative director, Jane Gottschalk. “Introducing rental is the next phase in our commitment to sustainability and the environment.”
And all while offering an option that saves us all money and looks *way* more chic than the options we could afford to buy for ourselves? See ya on the slopes!
