Imagine a shop where, instead of buying clothes, you borrow them. Welcome to LENA, the fashion library in Amsterdam! In this unique “library,” it’s possible to refresh your wardrobe with stylish and original pieces without the environmental impact of fast fashion. With a vast collection of dresses, tunics, blouses, and jackets, LENA allows its members to experiment with their style while contributing to more sustainable fashion.
Elisa Jansen, co-founder of LENA, has always been passionate about reusing clothes. With her two sisters and a friend, she launched this initiative in 2014 to offer an alternative to textile overconsumption. With over 2,000 pieces available online and collection points in several Dutch cities, LENA offers an innovative, eco-friendly, and accessible shopping experience. Each member, for a membership fee of 10 euros, can borrow quality clothes from sustainable brands, with flexible and advantageous pricing.
