Can I order for a future event?

On Hirestreet you can only book in-stock styles, but you get to keep them for the next 21 days.

If your event is happening within the next month or so, place your order today. If your event is in a few month's time, add your favourite styles to Saved Items. Come back the month before the event to place your rental order.

Please note, though, Accidental Damage Cover doesn't protect against loss, theft, or unrepairable intentional damage.

Rental FAQs

I'm new to renting - how does it work?

We love that you are thinking about making your first rental order.

Firstly, decide what you'd like to rent by adding items to your wish list and using our personalised edit to find something right for you.

We recommend hiring outfits early if they are in stock, as popular items get booked out very fast - and even if your event is in a weeks' time, it just gives you plenty of time to try on and style! At the moment, you can rent an item with us for up to 21 days from the order date.

Once you have selected your outfit(s), you are ready to check out.

We hope you love your first rental!

Do I need to keep outfits for the full rental period?

We understand that if you have an event, you may not need your items for the full 21 days, but customer feedback told us that you loved having the extra time with your outfits (to have the comfort that they fit and to have extra time to style)

Can I cancel my order?

Orders are typically dispatched the day they are made, so if you wish to cancel your order please get in touch straight away. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to cancel your order if it has already been processed and packed.

Can I amend my order?

Orders are typically dispatched the day they are made, so if you wish to amend your order please get in touch straight away. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to amend your order if it has already been processed and packed.

My outfit arrived with tags on - can I remove them?

Yes, please feel free to remove any tags or ribbons attached to your outfits when they are delivered.

What is Accidental Damage Cover?

All orders placed after 24th April now include Accidental Damage Cover as standard.

This covers any repairable damage that happens during your rental period. If your rental is damaged during your rental period and can be fixed by our team when it's returned - your accidental damage cover will cover the cost of this fix. 

Please note, accidental damage cover does not provide cover against loss, theft or damage beyond repair. If your item is returned in an unrepairable state, we will be required to charge a replacement fee.

We strongly advise against using body tape and safety pins to alter garments, as this can often lead to irreparable damage. 

Please do not permanently tailor your rental.
