About Loaner
Own the moment,
not the dress.
Loaner is a boutique dress hire studio. We buy the designer pieces you’d love to wear once, keep them in flawless condition, and hire them out for a fraction of retail. Better for your wallet, your wardrobe and the planet.
- 01
Find the dress
Browse the collection online and filter by your size, colour and occasion. Every listing shows real availability for your event dates, so you’ll never fall for a dress you can’t have.
- 02
Try it on (optional but lovely)
Book a 30-minute studio session ($15) and try as many dresses as you like. We’ll be honest about fit — we’d rather you look incredible than hire the wrong dress.
- 03
Book & pay securely
Choose your hire dates, pay online with Stripe, and you’re done. The price you see is the price you pay: hire fee plus a refundable bond.
- 04
Wear it like you own it
Collect your dress steamed and ready (or have it delivered). Dance, dine, be photographed relentlessly.
- 05
Return without a chore
Drop the dress back by your return date — that’s it. Dry cleaning is on us, and your bond comes straight back once the dress is checked over.
The fine print, kindly
Life happens — read our returns, cancellation and damage policy so there are no surprises. Spoiler: we’re reasonable people.
