“My friends and I have shared experiences where we would see fashion items used for events, shoots, or personal occasions only once. We thought that these pieces deserve more than one wear,” says Maica Tady when asked about the humble beginnings of Vestido. “We thought our rental service would offer a solution to give girls access to more options that wouldn’t break the bank while also unloading their closets.”

What started as a small idea turned into something outstanding, which helped many girls find a sustainable solution to getting dressed and becoming more mindful. Vestido has become more than finding a look or fixing a fashion emergency.

“We’re thrilled to know that the Vestido experience plays a part in making [customers] feel their best,” says Tady. “Some magical moments we’ve shared in the studio have been watching women see themselves in a new light and build their confidence to try things they never imagined themselves in.”
