NEW YORK, Aug. 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Rent the Runway, (www.renttherunway.com) the leading online destination for designer dress and accessory rentals, announced today its largest marketing partnership to date – a landmark program in which L'Oreal Paris will become the Presenting Sponsor of RTR On Campus, the Company's brand ambassador program.

"Our mission is to empower women everywhere to feel their most beautiful and self-confident," said Jennifer Fleiss, Co-founder and Head of Business Development at Rent the Runway. "We are thrilled to be partnering with L'Oreal Paris to bring this mission to life by giving women access to the complete head-to-toe look, while also offering our RTR On Campus representatives increased experience in the marketing and entrepreneurial fields."

"At L'Oreal Paris, we are committed to helping every woman embrace her unique beauty while reinforcing her sense of self-worth," says Kristen Comings, VP, Media, Digital, Content and Consumer Promotions at L'Oreal Paris. "Our Rent the Runway partnership builds on this philosophy and provides a new generation of women with the tools they need to look and feel beautiful. Through compelling brand experiences, we hope to inspire these women to embody our iconic philosophy Because You're Worth It."
