Governance
We’re committed to being transparent about our progress, and report against our Impact Strategy goals annually.
Being an agent of change is part of the fabric of Rent the Runway: we built a more sustainable business model for fashion by encouraging customers to buy less and wear more. We believe in the power of our platform to radically alter the trajectory of the fashion industry, and unlike most in the space, our ESG initiatives complement – rather than compete with – our bottom line.
