This week's guest is Eshita Kabra, the founder of By Rotation, the world's first social fashion rental app. The idea for the platform came during Eshita’s honeymoon, when she realised that with every purchase she was adding to the incredible amount of textile waste that is damaging our planet, She started to reconsider her relationship with fashion and the idea for By Rotation was born. The platform now allows users to ‘rent’ their designer wardrobe out to others - meaning people can access items they might not usually be able to afford, whilst reducing their impact on the environment.
