It's 4pm on a Thursday and I'm walking to the nursery gates dressed in a Burberry trench and carrying a Gucci handbag worth £490.
Using the new service, you can buy a bundle of credits that lets you rent a selection of pieces — as opposed to the more traditional rental model, where items are borrowed on an individual basis — from premium brands including Ganni, Jacquemus and Sandro for up to a month. The eco benefits of renting clothes chimes with my own endeavour to have less wasteful shopping habits, too. With 92 million tonnes of clothes going to landfill every year, borrowing something satisfies the desire for a new fashion-fix, safe in the knowledge it can be returned, then go on to be worn again and again rather than ending up in the bin.In theory it sounds great.
Keen to keep deliveries to a minimum I'd selected managed pieces from Hurr, which meant they all arrive together in the post in two reusable boxes, wrapped in tissue paper and pristinely clean. It's worth noting that peer-to-peer rentals will arrive separately, unless borrowed from the same person. EXCLUSIVEREAD MORE: Does my bottom look big in this? Good! M&S launches its £15 padded pants tomorrow. JULIA LAWRENCE put them to the test... and found they made her 50-something bum look decades younger Advertisement Also in my Hurr bundle is the aforementioned Gucci handbag, which I wear every day, making the £87 eight-day rental fee feel worth it , especially as it gets me several compliments from the nursery mums.
