Rent Your Christmas

Words & Edited by

The festive season is a magical time, but the amount of stuff can be overwhelming. So this year we’re looking for ways to make the holiday season more sustainable, and renting is one of the smartest solutions. From party outfits to tableware and the tree, read on for your little black book of Christmas rentals.

Rent Your Outfit

In time for party season, you can now rent from an edit of hand-selected dresses, jumpsuits and suits directly from MATCHES. Choose from designers including The Vampire’s Wife, Saloni and 16 Arlington. If you need to finish the look with a new accessory, MATCHES also has a selection of party bags, or head to Anya Hindmarch, where you can borrow a new or archive piece.

If you’ll be hitting the slopes for the holidays, did you know you can also hire your skiwear from MATCHES or John Lewis, who have a range of retro-style ski suits?

Rent Your Table

For the most elegant Christmas table, make Maison Margaux your go-to. Hire everything from table linens to glassware, napkin holders and vases. Mix and match your favourite pieces to create your own tablescape or simply choose from their ‘Rent The Look’ section, where nineteen different combinations have been curated for you.

Rent Your Tree

Many farms will let you pick the same tree year after year (and name it!) so you can watch it grow with your family. Try London Christmas Tree Rental, Rental Claus and Green Elf Trees, who, as well as offering rental trees, will also deliver sustainably grown British cut trees, all while making a donation to a charity of your choice. Even better: they'll remove it for you in January and replant, compost or repurpose it.
