Every rental comes with our Fit Guarantee. If your item doesn't fit, notify us within 12 hours of delivery with the security tag still attached, via WhatsApp on 079 393 4213 or email cole@stylerotate.com. We'll arrange collection, and once the item is returned and audited, you'll receive a cash refund, less delivery fees.

How To Rent

Choose your rental start date on the calendar (the day you'd like your item to arrive) and select a 4-day, 8-day or 16-day rental. Bookings must be placed at least one day in advance, and weekends are greyed out as we don't deliver on Saturdays or Sundays. If your rental ends on a weekend or public holiday, we'll collect on the next working day.

How do delivery and returns work?

Delivery and return collection are both pre-booked for you, so there's nothing to arrange. Your rental arrives ready to wear, and when you're done, simply repack it in the same box, garment bag and hanger it came in, attach the return waybill, and have it ready for collection on your final rental day. See full shipping info here.

What's covered, and can I cancel?

Every rental includes snag & spill insurance, covering minor damage like small marks and broken zips (specialist stain removal is charged separately). Plans changed? Cancel 5 or more working days before your start date for a full refund, a reschedule, or a gift card. See our full Cancellation & Flexibility Policy for details.
