Eshita Kabra Davies hasn't just built one of the first peer-peer fashion lending companies, she is on a powerful mission to drastically change social norms. By Rotation gives you the opportunity to rent outfits and accessories you may never have ad the budget to buy from new. Not only do customers have the perks of renting luxury garments, but clients can benefit from a pretty healthy secondary income. Its a win-win. Your fashion choices really can be categorised as investments. Eshita didn't just do this for the reasons above though, she wants to take on social responsibility when it comes to waste and sustainability. 92 million tons of textile waste are generated every year worldwide, and this number is expected to increase to 134 million tons by 2030. In 2018, around 1,000,000 tons of clothing were thrown away in the U.S. alone, with a large portion being from fast fashion brands. Peer to peer lending makes perfect sense and gives us the ability to all take responsibility for the planet.
