My Take on THE CLOSET: The Best Clothing Box of 2024?

Like everyone else, I sometimes buy clothes and wear them just once or twice before giving them away or reselling them. Until recently, I found that rather frustrating because I really love switching up my style and trying out new outfits, but it can be costly and lead to waste.

A few months ago, I came across the concept of the Le Closet box, which offers not to buy your clothes, but to rent them instead! Curious about this system, I decided to give it a try by ordering a box filled with clothes and accessories. I even repeated the experience afterwards and I’ll share what I thought about it!

What is Le Closet?

💖 I loved it

• The ease of ordering,
• The variety of choices,
• The great condition of the clothes received,
• The option to buy a piece we truly love to keep,
• The reusable "package" bag for sending and returning,
• The savings made thanks to the Closet box!

❌ I didn’t like it as much

• Some clothes are often out of stock,
• Clothes sometimes arrive wrinkled.

How Does Le Closet Work?

Le Closet is a unique clothing subscription box. It's a service that allows you to receive parcels of clothing that you select yourself from a wide range of brands curated by Le Closet.

The difference with other subscription boxes is straightforward: the outfits you select are for rental! This means you can return them whenever you want, whether you no longer like them or they don’t fit you anymore.

How do you choose your clothes and accessories?

Le Closet operates like a huge shared wardrobe: as a subscriber, you get to choose from thousands of clothing items and accessories from top brands.

Le Closet offers you:

• tops,
• dresses,
• jackets,
• sweaters,
• skirts,
• pants,
• jumpsuits,
• shorts... ,

You can also rent many accessories such as:

• jewellery,
• scarves,
• bags,
• belts,
• hair accessories,
• pins,
• sunglasses...

👉 If you find a clothing item you like but it's out of stock, you can add it to your wishlist. This way, you'll be notified when it comes back in stock!

What are the clothing sizes available at the Closet?

Le Closet rents outfits from size 34 (XS) to 50 (5XL), which caters to various body types.

When you sign up, you'll be asked to provide your measurements so that we can recommend clothes that fit you well and are flattering for your body shape.

Which brands will I find in the Le Closet selection?

Le Closet brings together over 50 brands, both well-known and lesser-known. It always offers quality and original clothing. The service provides a rental selection of outfits suitable for various occasions: going on holiday, weddings and cocktails, pregnancy and nursing, responsible fashion...

Here are a few brands from the more than fifty available in the Le Closet catalogue

How Often Can I Receive a Le Closet Box?

When it comes to subscriptions, the number of monthly boxes is unlimited. This means that you can receive multiple boxes each month if you wish: the price will be multiplied by the number of boxes you receive.

Where should I place my order?

You can do it directly on the website or by downloading the Le Closet app, which is available:

• On Google Play, for Android users,
• On the App Store, for iPhone users.

👉 This app truly helps you save time! I often use it whenever I have a few minutes, whether I'm in a waiting room or on public transport, to add clothes to my wishlist or browse through collections.

Who is the Le Closet box for?

Le Closet is an ideal option for many situations. The concept of being able to rent clothes is really practical, as it helps avoid buying items that you wear only a few times.

For All Body Shapes 👩

Whether you're looking for XS or 5XL, Le Closet offers a wide range of clothing suitable for all sizes. This makes it easy to dress up without spending hours searching for flattering outfits. You shop online: if the clothes don't fit when you receive them, just return them!

For Your Professional Wardrobe 👜

Need a smart outfit for a job interview? You can rent one from Le Closet. This service is also perfect if your job requires a specific dress code (like in service, sales, or public interaction) and you need to refresh your wardrobe regularly.

For Expecting Mums 🤰

During pregnancy, your body goes through rapid changes, and you might find yourself frequently buying maternity clothes. The Closet offers a collection specially designed for expectant mothers, so you can feel beautiful every day without breaking the bank on suitable outfits!

For Your Evening and Cocktail Outfits 👗

When you're invited to a party, a wedding, or a christening, finding the perfect outfit can quickly become a headache. What's more, it’s such a waste, as often, that outfit ends up sitting in your wardrobe for years after being worn just once! Renting your outfit through Le Closet is a brilliant idea to save your money and time.

👉 Since I’ve been invited to several weddings this summer, I really enjoyed being able to shop at Le Closet and find stunning outfits, which I could return afterwards. This has saved me from wearing the same dress to every party this summer!

Going on a Holiday 🌴

Are you on the lookout for a suitable summer outfit for your holidays? With its "Vacation Ready" collection, Le Closet invites you to enjoy the pleasure of switching up your style for a few days or even weeks!

What is the price of a Le Closet subscription?

Le Closet offers 3 different subscription plans:

The "Initiated" offer at S$39.99 per month is designed for those who want to try out Le Closet, with two clothing items and one accessory in each box. If you find this service appealing, I recommend the "Committed" offer, which includes 3 clothing items and 2 accessories per box, for a total of S$49.99 monthly.

Lastly, if you prefer to receive only clothing, you can choose the plan "The Fashionista", which includes 4 pieces of clothing per box for a total of 59.99 SGD per month.

👉 Personally, I opted for the $49.99 monthly subscription, and I’m quite happy with it. This way, I can regularly get new clothes!

Discover Le Closet's Special "Maternity" Offer

For Expecting Mums, Le Closet offers a special collection featuring maternity wear, and here are the prices:

The maternity subscription from Le Closet helps you save costs during pregnancy by avoiding the need to invest in maternity clothes that you'll only wear a few times. For S$49.99 per month, you can enjoy your pregnancy in style without the stress!

What Does a Le Closet Package Look Like?

Are you unsure about ordering Le Closet and want to see a sneak peek of a box? The video below shows you what to expect when you receive your first package:

This unboxing video shows that the clothes are clean and well folded. They are sent in a cardboard box, or more recently, in a reusable pouch that you can keep for returning the clothes of your choice to the Closet. These clothes are in like-new condition: if any clothes come back damaged, Le Closet removes them from the rental process.

👉 Personally, I’m quite happy with this packaging and the overall functionality of the Closet. However, I’ve noticed that sometimes the clothes do get a bit creased in the new soft packing pouch.

Can I give a Le Closet gift card? 🎁

Who should you give a Le Closet gift card to?

Depending on the chosen amount, it can also be a group gift from a bunch of friends or colleagues to celebrate a new chapter in life (like moving house, getting married, or starting a new job...).

In any case, this is a very versatile gift that will suit everyone, regardless of their style and body shape! 😉

My Verdict on the Le Closet Box ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I first heard about the Le Closet service on social media. I really liked the idea, but I never had the courage to give it a try until this spring.

After two years affected by COVID, I was fortunate to have a summer filled with celebrations and weddings. For all these events, I needed dressy outfits, and I really felt it was a waste to buy dresses just to wear them once. So I remembered about Closet and decided to give it a try.

I'm a size 46, so I was a bit worried about not finding any nice chic clothes on the site. However, I was pleasantly surprised and managed to pick a dress and a jumpsuit that I really liked for my first order. I also chose a clutch that matched both items.

The clothes I received were packed in a reusable bag, which I could keep to return them after wearing. It included a mid-length Ichi dress and a fuchsia pink Make my Lemonade jumpsuit.

I was surprised by the quality of the clothes, which looked brand new. The suit wasn't pressed very well, but I think that was due to the shipping.

In the summer, I returned the dress and ordered another package from Le Closet, which included two more dresses that I’m thrilled about. I was a bit disappointed that many of the clothes I had added to my wishlist were unavailable when I wanted to place the order. But there are plenty of options online, so it wasn’t a big issue!

✅ To sum it up, I'm really happy with my experience at Le Closet, and I recommend it to anyone looking to change up their style, rent clothes for a special occasion, or even for everyday wear! It's a reliable service, so don't hesitate!
