Yes. We understand sometimes you need a piece longer than a 10 day period. If you need an extended rental time please reach out to our team at hello@theafterwhite.com and we will do our best to accommodate a custom rental duration.
This is what our insurance is for! Please do not attempt to dry clean any items yourself - we leave this to the professionals to ensure each piece looks brand new for it's next wearer. We highly recommend opting in for our rental insurance to cover any small accidents such as spills or stains.
Nope! Shipping (both ways) and rental insurance is included in our rental prices!
Our rental insurance covers any reversible small accidents or normal wear and tear (minimal staining, a loose button, small rips). It does not cover any damage that would deem the item unwearable, or that would cost a substantial amount to be fixed. It does not cover lost items. If an item is damaged beyond repair you are liable for paying the full retail value of that item.
As the pieces curated for our rental selections are generally sold out or speciality small batch designs we currently do not offer these pieces for sale. We may be hosting a sale on pieces that are being removed from our rentals collection in the future, you can sign up for our newsletter to be the first to know!
No. We accommodate for shipping times when sending out your rental. If you rental arrives a day or two early it does not reflect upon your rental time, and you have a few extra days with your dress! All rentals MUST be shipped out before noon on the last day of your rental period, or you are at risk of incurring late fees.
Simply pack up all items in the reusable garmet bag your order arrived in and affix the prepaid returns label included. You can then either drop it off at your nearest UPS location or schdule a pickup. Please note that rentals need to be dropped off or picked up by noon on the last day of your rental period. Items sent past this date will be considered late and you will be charged a late fee(s).
If your rental is returned late you will be charged a $50 late fee per day. This fee will be charged every day until your order arrives back in The Afterwhite studio, or up until the full retail value of the item is reached.If an item is not returned it will be considered stolen and lost item fees will apply.
If you've lost or not returned an item, it will be considered stolen and you will be liable for up to 200% of the retail price of the item.The items available for rent on our website are often sold out in all retail stores and no longer available from the designer. This has led to some people renting an item and not returning it, or saying it is lost, so that they are able to obtain something they want to keep. This, along with loss of earnings from potential future rentals, is why there is a fee of up to 200% of the retail perice for lost and unreturned items.
We do not accept order cancelations on rentals at this time. If you need to change the date or item please reach out to us at hello@theafterwhite.com and we will do our best to accomodate.
