Jenny Fleiss, Rent the Runway co-founder and head of business development, commented, “We’re thrilled to be working with such an iconic hair brand to bring our customers the best of both fashion and beauty. Great hair inspires confidence and empowerment in a woman just as a fabulous dress does, so we are eager to bring women professional products and expert tips that will help them look and feel their best from head to toe. Not to mention, we are big fans of Wella’s products and services ourselves!”
The year-long collaboration launches in September and will include product sampling, how-to video tutorials with Wella Professionals’ Celebrity Stylist, Andy LeCompte as well as integrated social media content, including contests and live chats. Each month, content will be refreshed on RentTheRunway.com so consumers can get up to the minute hair tips, trends and advice to create their very own red carpet look. Additionally, as part of the sampling program, Wella will be offering Rent the Runway customers in-salon incentives and in-store coupons and will also take part in local Rent the Runway events for the duration of the partnership. All of these elements are designed to teach women how to choose products and styles that will help them achieve a look best suited for their designer dress rental.
