Rent the Runway

The Mrs. Carter World Tour is shaping up to be quite the fashionable affair. On top of Beyoncé's custom costumes, designed by the likes of Kenzo, Emilio Pucci, and Givenchy — and her tour's eponymous line of concert-inspired tees — Rent the Runway is honoring her tour by debuting a boutique of dresses and accessories, specially curated by Beyoncé herself. Dresses by Nanette Lepore, Moschino, Versace, and Erin Fetherston — just to name a few — and a colorful lineup of sparkling baubles have all become Beyoncé-approved must-have items to style the perfect night out. Shop the entire selection online, and see our favorite items from the boutique, here in the gallery.

If you don't yet have a Rent the Runway account (it's free!), then now is the perfect time to sign up. That's because one of our favorite veteran designers, Donna Karan, has designed an exclusive capsule collection for the retailer that debuted today. The line features three gowns and one cocktail-perfect dress, which retail for $1,995 to $2,995 — but rent for $275 to $400. So you can get all the sophisticated glamour of Donna Karan's exclusive collection without committing to the big-ticket price — that's what we like to call smart shopping. Head inside for a complete look at Donna Karan for Rent the Runway, then start borrowing the one(s) that speak to your style.

That's a wrap on the 2012 award season! We're still basking in the excitement from the huge Oscars weekend that closed out more than two months of red carpets, parties, and star-studded events. We blew out our award season coverage more than ever and we had some help to look the part from our friends at Rent the Runway and RevolveClothing.com over the weekend. Rent the Runway dressed our PopSugar and BuzzSugar editors for Oscars night in designers like Narciso Rodriguez, David Meister, and Halston Heritage. The morning after, we were up bright and early to share all the insider details from Hollywood's biggest nights and we were decked in cute tops thanks to Revolve. Check out what we wore!

Big thanks to our friends at Rent the Runway for getting our PopSugar editors red carpet ready this award season. We were decked out in gorgeous gowns, fabulous minis, and showstopping sparkly numbers for the People's Choice, Critics' Choice, and Golden Globe awards so far. In designer labels ranging from Proenza Schouler to Milly, we were ready to make this our best award season yet. Check out our Rent the Runway picks in dresses and jewelry and don't forget to check out the site before your next big event.

Today, Rent the Runway announced their official partnership with our sister site Shopstyle, so we immediately had to test Jenny Fleiss and Jennifer Hyman — the founders of RTR — on their style savvy. Their credentials are impressive: after graduating together from Harvard Business School they hatched a little business we know today as Rent the Runway, which operates like the Netflix of designer fashion. Hundreds of covetable dresses that would be way out of many people's reach are now for rent, which means designer fashion just got way more attainable, and getting the perfect outfit for a special occasion got way easier. Still, what is the perfect outfit for those special occasions? We asked Jenny and Jennifer to create outfits on Shopstyle to reflect the perfect outfits for the following events: black-tie, summer wedding, and cocktail party. To see their choices, keep reading.
