Rent the Runway, fashion's answer to Netflix, is launching a wedding section. It doesn't debut until January, but their current partnership with OneWed.com offers a bit of a preview—wedding guests can get 10% off dress rentals, and the bride herself can earn freebies on clothing and accessories. For bridesmaids, this could be a godsend: If you've ever had to spend a chunk of grocery money on a dress you'll never wear again, you''ll recognize the appeal of a gown you can return once the party's over.
