About Dressr
60+ fashion brands, 3500+ beautiful pieces, and one rental platform.
Meet Dressr, the force behind the fashion rental revolution in Europe.
50+ conscious fashion brands, 850+ beautiful styles, and one rental platform - that’s our way of contributing to a more sustainable future of fashion.
Our story
Dressr was founded in 2021 by Caroline Cecile Baeten with the goal of finding more sustainable ways to enjoy fashion. Following her own transition from sales seeker to conscious consumer, Caroline started Dressr to make this journey easier, more enjoyable and more accessible at a large scale. Fast-forward 4 years, Dressr now works with more than 60+ brands and a fast-growing rental community.
Since our inception, Dressr has built an impressive proposition and platform that creates a win-win for renters and brands. Members get to enjoy the freedom of a seemingly-unlimited wardrobe without the cost, ecological impact, and hassle of ownership. And brands get a helping hand to reduce their footprint, receive valuable quality & rental data on their products, and get remunerated for every item rented.
From personal styling sessions to keynote speeches and workshops for local businesses, the Dressr team is active on all fronts promoting rental as a better, more sustainable way to enjoy the beauty of fashion.

Sustainability
Dressr plays its part in the future of fashion by unlocking the sustainability benefits of rental for brands and fashion enthusiasts. To us, ‘sustainable’ in fashion is about improving garment quality, minimizing waste, solving overstock issues and maximizing use-per-garment. Fashion rental with Dressr ticks all of these boxes.
Whether you rent with a membership or just once for a special occasion, the ecological impact is fundamentally different compared to traditional purchasing. In a research collaboration with the independent Flemish research organization VITO, we demonstrated that items rented on Dressr had significantly higher use-per-garment than traditionally purchased items. Many of our members, like Helena, also stop adding new clothes to their wardrobe altogether after joining Dressr, which decreases the demand for new item production.
Through Dressr’s one-time-rental option, renting instead of purchasing occasionwear leads to big sustainability wins for fashion. Annually, millions of items are bought for weddings, events, and holidays and only worn once, creating a massive pollution and waste footprint. Renting makes the purchase and production of these items obsolete.
Our showroom
The Dressr Showroom is open by appointment on Wednesday & Thursday between 15h–19h, and two Saturdays a month between 10h–17h (see calendar).
Curious about that new item from your favourite brand? Or want some styling support from an expert? Join us in our showroom in Mortsel for an engaging fashion experience. And follow along on Instagram to be the first to know about special events.
We look forward to your visit!
Workshops
At Dressr, we believe that fashion is more than just clothing, it’s an expression of who you are. We also believe that everyone deserves to feel confident and comfortable in their own skin, and that starts with knowing how to show off your body type.
Our interactive workshops, held in our Antwerp showroom, are designed to help you discover your unique style and learn how to dress for your body type, so you can feel confident and comfortable every day. Our team will teach you how to accentuate your best features and create a wardrobe that works for you. You’ll have access to hundreds of beautiful pieces from more than 60+ brands and the expertise of the Dressr team at your fingertips to make you feel like a million bucks!
