"I was in a pinch for a last minute kilt hire after being let down. Rathbones team saved me in a pinch, turning a delivery around in about 36 hours. Super helpful whoever supported me on Facebook messenger. Kilt fitted a treat and looked very sharp. Thank you"
"I was a bit worried about the measuring bit When the suit was delivered being extra tall I went into my default of “its not going to fit” mode like I do on he high street or other mail ordering. I was pleasently surprised that the suit fitted really well and it did cross my mind if I could buy it I extended the hire for the next weekend for another event and just in the process of hiring another suit for my third event of the month, hiring with confidence this time."
"Like a lot of people, I don’t know my exact dimensions, especially when it comes to black tie. I originally ordered a 38R jacket, but thought it might not fit. Rathbones were amazing and brought the delivery forward so I’d have time to swap the jacket and sure enough, what I really needed was a 36S. The replacement arrived with plenty of time and the fit and quality were all perfect. Considering the amount of time and effort they spent dealing with me I’d say it was great value for money and the returns process was super easy with reusable boxes and DPD. I will definitely be back if I ever get invited to a do this fancy again!"
"Everything as described. Delivery process pretty easy. Suit decent quality. The trousers arrived as 34, but were 32 at best. I had to urgently request a second pair (Very fast, but another £8. 5), and was told the website does suggest you order a size up. Gut feeling is you should get 34's when ordering 34. . . Jacket and waistcoat as ordered"
"I was worried what I would get but was amazed at the exceptional quality and the fitting of my wedding suit. It looked fantastic on me and everyone commented on how it looked tailor made. Customer service was top class too."
"Ordered a rental tux for a summer ball, unfortunately it didn’t fit very well, but the wife got on the case and with 24 hours we had a different size and only paid for the additional postage. Excellent service and great business model for people who don’t necessarily fall into the traditional tick box for sizes. I’ve ticked ‘runs small’ but that may not necessarily be accurate."
"We hired morning suits for our wedding. The try on service is super convenient and we were able to send the try on suits to each of the groomsmen at their own address. The quality of the suits is great. They are much nicer than other morning suits we had seen on suit shops on the high street. Delivery is also very quick. We didn’t have any issues with sizing but they offer to send different sizes if you have issues when the suit arrives. The trousers have an adjustable waist which is really helpful. We would definitely recommend Rathbones for wedding suit hire. The process couldn’t have been easier and the groom and groomsmen photos have come out looking amazing!"
"I rented this suit for Royal Ascot ladies day and it was amazing. It came on time, beautifully packaged and it fit like glove first time! It was comfortable not too hot in the heat and just made me feel like the best dressed in front of the royals. Got so many comments from friends and family on how fab my suit was. I have a wedding coming up and will definitely be using this service again !"

"This suit provided exactly what I needed to be able to attend Ascot in the Royal Closure. I had previously ordered a try on suit to be sure I got the correct size, so was a bit surprised how big the trousers were when the rental arrived. I had to double check they were the same size as the try-on, but apparently they were. I had the waist adjusters pulled to the maximum adjustment, so they pretty much stayed on the day."
