ShoponPickle

Pickle is a leading peer-to-peer rental marketplace that makes items from your community’s closets available for rent on demand. With simple listing processes, flexible pricing and rental periods, an extensive selection of apparel, and convenient delivery options, Pickle makes it easy to keep items in rotation, explore different brands and styles for less, and earn passive income on items already in your closet. Founded in 2021 and headquartered in New York, NY, Pickle is on a mission to unlock the billions of underutilized goods in people’s homes and make them more affordable, accessible, and circular.

I'm excited to share that I've been busy helping grow Pickle, as their Director of Operations!

Pickle is using the power of technology to make high-quality fashion more accessible, affordable, and circular, and it’s been rapidly scaling across the US (hence this very delayed post 😅). 

Just like Airbnb opened up and connected our homes, Pickle is doing the same for our closets: you can rent a Retrofète dress or Prada handbag from someone else’s enviable closet uptown for the weekend and, on the flip side, list an item you already own, making yourself a nice little side hustle by renting it between wears (check out TechCrunch's feature for more: https://lnkd.in/gFEC8zq6).

So far this year, I've personally rented Cult Gaia and Alemais dresses for a beach vacation, a (faux!) fur coat for a themed dinner, a Reiss dress for a work event, and another Alemais stunner for a birthday celebration, to name a few. I have 11 (!!) weddings this year, so I'm looking forward to being able to save $$ without compromising on style.

At Uber, we were laser focused on creating magical experiences (get ride with a click of a button?!), and it's a similar mindset that's led to Pickle taking off so quickly.

The access to incredible pieces at affordable prices - with same day delivery (!!) in our core cities has created nothing short of magic.

👉 To my friends in the US - with summer vacations and wedding season picking up, it's a perfect opportunity to try out Pickle. I'd love to hear what you think! I've added a (free ☺️) download link to the thread ⬇️

PS - We're also hiring! If you know any NYC-based (or willing to relocate) Senior Engineers with founder or early-stage experience, DM me! It's an incredible opportunity to work on a transformational product with the best team. JD in the thread.

A big congrats to our co-founder and COO, Julia O'Mara, for being recognized by Inc. Magazine in this year’s #FemaleFounders list. Congrats to all of the inspiring women whose innovations and ideas are shaping the world.

NBC News' Zinhle E. visited our West Village store and sat down with our founder, Julia O'Mara, for an inside look at the fast-growing world of peer-to-peer clothing rental through Pickle. She went behind the scenes to see it come to life with our community, visiting Ellen’s apartment where she’s built a thriving side hustle renting out items from her closet, and tagging along with Blake as she picks up the dress she rented for her birthday.

A big thank you to Zinhle and the rest of the NBC crew for spending the day with us, and to our community who opened their personal doors to the world of Pickle (Pickle closets: @blakeevinn and @ellen)!

Excited about our new partners, team members, and growing community!

🎉A big day for Pickle: we’re opening our first storefront! 

On Saturday (Dec. 9), just in time for the holidays, we’ll officially open our store doors, bringing our online brand, shopping experience, and vibrant community to the physical form. From in-house stylists to a rotating selection of in-demand styles and brands to a content creation studio, our store will make it even more convenient, fun, social, and valuable to rent from each other. 

Thank you, WWD, for spotlighting our new home in Manhattan’s West Village
