Apps like Depop and Poshmark
The closest apps to Depop and Poshmark are Vinted and Mercari, which work the same way: you list a piece, someone buys it, you ship it. e.closet is different in one way that matters for dresses: you can rent your clothes out instead of selling them, with 0% seller fees, so a formal dress or a designer piece earns every time it's booked instead of once.

Why rent instead of sell?
Resale gets you one payment, usually well under what you paid. A dress you wore once to a formal, a wedding or game day is exactly what other women are looking to wear once too. On e.closet:
- You set one flat price for each rental length (2, 4, 5, 7, 14 or 30 days). Formal pieces typically rent for $35–$70.
- You keep the full price. e.closet charges 0% seller fees; renters pay a small service fee at checkout.
- You choose how it gets there: local pickup, shipping with a prepaid label and tracking, or a same-city courier.
- You can still sell it. A listing can show rental prices and a sale price, so someone can rent it or buy it.
Which app to use
- Selling everyday basics or bundles: Vinted or Mercari.
- Vintage and streetwear: Depop.
- Mall and designer brands, if you don't mind the 20%: Poshmark.
- Formal dresses, wedding guest dresses, game day outfits and designer pieces: rent them out on e.closet first.
