Dress for success: 3 benefits of fashion rental for self-employed professionals

Few career tracks are as competitive as the self-employed route. Chances are, the last thing you want to be doing is worrying about dressing the part – especially if you spend most of your time typing away behind your desk.

However, how you present yourself can play an important role in landing you that next client, and research has actually shown that proper business attire can result in better work performance. What if we told you that you could have a collection of professional pieces ready for any occasion without spending hours shopping?

At Dressr, we have helped a lot of our members – many of them self-employed professionals – build the ideal professional wardrobe with fashion rental. For each membership term, you’ll receive an invoice from us, which we’ve see many of our members pay for through their business – that’s not only a great bang for your buck but it also makes perfect business sense.

That’s just one of the benefits of choosing fashion rental as a self-employed professional. Let’s get into it.


3 reasons why you should opt for fashion rental if you’re your own boss

From saving money and looking out for the environment to the convenience of having your pieces delivered directly to your doorstep, being your own boss while dressing the part can go hand in hand. Here are 3 reasons why fashion rental is a win-win for self-employed professionals.

Renting is business-friendly 

Now, let’s find out why renting your business attire is not only a way to keep your wardrobe looking fresh, but also a smart choice that aligns with your professional goals. Depending on the circumstance, a fashion rental membership can be a clear business expense. Many of our members have processed their Dressr Rental Memberships via business invoices, saving on a rotation of business pieces through reclaiming VAT and tax reductions.

Whether you’re attending an event, working from client offices, or running your own store, it’s a great way to dress for success without breaking the bank.

Save money on the power suit with one-time rental 

Do you have a particular business occasion coming up? Maybe it’s an important client pitch, a photo shoot or networking event, and you want to make a great first impression. You’re not alone in wanting to avoid spending a small fortune on a piece of clothing that you may not have the occasion to wear again. 

In that case, Dressr’s one-time rental option is perfect for you. You can choose an item (or several!) from the collection to rent once and wear for the occasion, then send it back after 10 days, allowing another self-employed professional to impress. Many of our members use this option for specific work-related events and pay for the rental through their business.

Dress the part without the hassle

As a self-employed professional, you’re already juggling enough stressors – from getting yourself out there to ensuring that the opportunities keep rolling in. The last thing you should worry about is how to dress the part.  

With a Dressr fashion rental membership, you can conveniently browse our entire collection online and select from high-quality, unique designer pieces that will help you look professional – whether you’ve just started your self-employed career or are already a seasoned pro. And all that without having to leave the comfort of your home. Enjoy a rotation of business attire and reinvent your professional persona every month (or whenever you’re ready for something new).
