(FOX Providence) - For brides to be one of the hardest parts of planning a wedding is finding a dress for her and the bridesmaids.

A.J. Nicholas from Rent the Runway joined The Rhode Show to show an easy, chic and fun way to dress your wedding party.

RenttheRunway.com is Netflix for fashion. You can rent the exact same looks you see on the runway and red carpet for 10% of the cost.

Here's how it works: You pick the dress you love on RenttheRunway.com . They ship it you in two sizes to ensure the perfect fit. Then, you return it in any mailbox – and they handle the dry cleaning!

Here are some bridesmaids trends from The Rhode Show and also on RenttheRunway.com

Badgley Mischka

  • The first bridesmaid dress featured is by Badgley Mischka. This dress retails for almost $400 but can be rented for only $100 on RenttheRunway.com .
  • In addition to this strapless style, we also carry the dress in scoop neck, one shoulder and a full skirt style to accommodate all bridesmaids’ body types.
  • It’s also available in multiple colors – navy, gray and lilac – with optional embellishments you can rent such as jeweled belts and sashes (rental: $20, retail: $110).

Nicole Miller Gown

  • The next style is for a more formal wedding.
  • Gowns are becoming increasingly popular as bridesmaid dresses and navy is a big trend for spring.
  • The Nicole Miller dress retails for $450 but can be rented for only $100 on RenttheRunway.com.
  • It could also double as a great option for prom!

Nicole Miller Dress

  • The last bridesmaid dress style featured is the least traditional style and most fashion-forward.
  • This metallic crinkle dress by Nicole Miller retails for $400 but can be rented for only $100 on RenttheRunway.com.
  • This style is great for a city bride who wants more edgy, stylish bridesmaid look.

Lilly Pulitzer

  • In addition to bridesmaid dresses we also have styles from over 120 top designers on RenttheRunway.com.
  • These dresses featured on The Rhode Show are from Lilly Pulitzer who we’ve just added to the site – they’re renting so quickly it’s hard to keep them in the warehouse!
  • These rent for as little as $40 and would cost about $250 to purchase.
  • Plus, we offer free styling consultations so you know what accessories to pair with your dress!

You can also rent gorgeous accessories from RenttheRunway.com to go with your dress.
