Rent the Runway, Jenn Hyman and Jenny Fleiss

Jenn Hyman and Jenny Fleiss
Website: Rent The Runway For those who don’t: have a red carpet wardrobe [Photo via] Similar to the Gilt girls, Jenn Hyman and Jenny Fleiss also turned their Harvard Business School friendship into a business venture. They solved the problem that every girl comes across, having a closet full of clothes but nothing to wear. The two women set exclusive relationships with high-end fashion designers and retailers to revive the business model blockbuster used with newly released movies. They created a community of rental dresses, aided by superb customer service and continual updates. In addition, designers that have offered their styles to the website have reciprocally seen a growth in sales.
