- Rent the Runway is a fashion company that allows customers to rent and return designer clothing.
- It recently renovated its New York City headquarters, and Business Insider got a look inside.
- The offices have a meditation studio and lots of places to try on clothes.
Rent the Runway has been working to democratize fashion since 2009. The startup allows customers to rent articles of clothing from more than 450 designers, with tiered monthly subscription services and items that start at $30 for a four-day rental.
Last November, the startup reached $100 million in annual sales, and this year, it's celebrating its eighth anniversary with the opening of a freshly renovated Manhattan headquarters.
The nearly 40,000-square-foot space is adorned in pink wallpaper, and its perks include a meditation room, photo studio, and fitting room for employees to change into their own rentals.
"Even though we're 1,200 people it still feels like it did in the early days when we first founded the company," co-founder and CEO Jenn Hyman told Business Insider.
She added: "That entrepreneurial spirit, the warmth, the friendships, are all there. We wanted the office to reflect that energetic entrepreneurial spirit."
