The New "Swanky" Collection of Rental Drapes Debuts at Rent What?

Theatrical drapery rental supplier Rent What? Inc. has announced the addition of a new collection in its specialty drapery series. Called "Swanky," the company says it epitomizes the splashy, glittery, sexiness of Las Vegas couture. As company partner Megan Duckett describes the collection, it's "jewelry for the stage."

The initial offering in the new "Swanky" collection of rental drapes is a linear mobile of 420 mirrored plates randomly suspended on invisible threads. As the lighting changes, or as the free-hanging mirrors rotate, the effects range from glitzy gold bijou to moody blue lounge.

The debut of this new drop is on the current concert tour of Grammy-winner John Legend, running through September.

"We're especially excited about this latest addition to our Specialty Drapery Series," said Duckett. "Our new mirror drop represents a creative drapery approach that's less fabric and more 'bling.' We're envisioning a whole range of products in the "Swanky" collection that staging and set designers will most certainly want to exploit, that goes beyond the expected."

Other collections in the Rent What? Specialty Drapery Series include: Silver Satin, Rockin Red, Delightably White, Industrial Textures, Timeless, and Traditional and Starlight LED.

"We want to expand our clients' notions of what's possible," added Duckett. "That includes making available for rent new products they may have never dreamt about. Being of extreme service means doing everything we can to help our clients deliver amazing shows...and that means pushing the boundaries of what rental drapery companies have to offer."
