for awhile I've subscribed to @RenttheRunway. Pay a flat fee, wear as much fancy designer fashion as you want. I mostly rent stuff for work so I was going to pause my membership since I won't be in the office for awhile, but then I figured, why not have a little fun?
plus it's a service I love and I can afford to keep supporting them, so seems like the right thing to do. So! They have a lot of black tie and fancy stuff that I've never had opportunity to rent, so I thought, let's do that now!
For the rest of the time I'm working at home, I will be renting ball gowns, sequined dresses, all the fancy stuff I would never have the occasion to wear, and I will be sitting around wearing it while I work from home
And of course I will share pics with all of you. :) I've decided on various themes for each week and we will start with Classic Black
Today I’m wearing a super poofy ball gown by Monique Lhuillier, which retails for $700. This thing is so poofy I can barely walk in it. Sorry the pic isn’t great, it’s dark and gloomy here so I had to brighten it a bit so you could see the glory of this gown :)
Ready for some #quarantinefashion? Today I’m watching a data science webinar in a fully sequined dress by Parker that retails for $450, shoes by Nine West. Also a friend suggested #slayathome as the hashtag for this project :)
We made it to Friday! Today’s #quarantinefashion is this simple but elegant gown by Halston, which retails for $450, with my Louboutins, one of my most prized possessions that were my gift to myself after finishing my PhD (with photobomb by Ophelia) #slayathome
this week I wore $1600 worth of fashion (which is more than 10x what I pay for @RenttheRunway for a full month!). Next week's theme will be Heavy Metal, when I will be wearing all metallic dresses :)
Ready for week 2 of #quarantinefashion? This week’s theme is Heavy Metal - all dresses will be metallic, starting with this one by David Meister, which retails for $725. I am deeply in love with this dress #slayathome
I think I have a new contender for fave #quarantinefashion. Check out this stunner by Badgley Mischka, which retails for $880. Perfect for black tie events and data science conference calls #slayathome
Since some have asked, yes I do wear the dresses most of the day. 8-11ish work in sweats, then take dog for walk. After dog walk put on the dress and wear it until the next dog walk around 4ish. I do wear them on conf calls but we’ve been asked not to use video so no one sees

Perhaps you're thinking right now, oh no, it's nearly 1 pm and we haven't had a #slayathome post yet! never fear, there will be #quarantinefashion a little later today. I washed my hair during the lunch hour, bc what even is time now, and it needs to dry for a bit :)
I feel like today’s #quarantinefashion is just ok, but I might like it more if yesterday’s hadn’t been SO awesome. This dress by Hutch retails for $450 and has a very high slit that I’d be scared to wear in public
#slay at home

Today’s #quarantinefashion brings back the poofy gown. It’s hard to tell, but the design on this Aidan Mattox gown, which retails for $300, is all metallic thread. Worn with some shoes I love that I bought in Paris years ago #slayathome
As it happens, I got another exciting package today :) if this tweet gets 1,000 likes, I will take my #quarantinefashion to the streets and skate around the neighborhood in this dress

Closing out Heavy Metal week of #quarantinefashion with another dress I’m in love with. This super shiny dress by Alice McCall retails for $600 and is a great match for these shoes I bought in France (please kindly ignore my lack of toe nail polish) #slayathome
This week I wore $2955 worth of fashion, which is more than 17x what I pay for an entire month of @RenttheRunway! Sneak peek for next week: the theme will be Lady in Red :)
Realized I didn’t add yesterday’s time the thread so here it is https://twitter.com/lisafederer/status/1247170975176830976?s=21 https://twitter.com/lisafederer/status/1247170975176830976
Today’s #quarantinefashion makes me feel like I’m in a James Bond movie and I should be in a casino doing some espionage. It’s an amazing gown by Chiara Boni that retails for $1090 #slayathome
