现在谁还敢穿租来的衣服,住共享民宿?过去十年风生水起的共享经济如今遭到了疫情的巨大冲击。就连共享经济最早的两个上市公司优步和来福车也同样面临疫情的考验。 Photo by Lauren Fleischmann on Unsplash Kim Timko used to rely on Rent the Runway for dresses for weddings and parties, outfits for date nights, and professional clothes for her job as a lawyer in New York. She said the clothing-rental service is "a nice way to have expensive clothes without having to buy." 在纽约当律师的金姆·蒂姆科过去曾在租衣平台Rent the Runway上租过婚礼和派对礼服、约会装及职业装。她表示服装租赁服务是“不用买就能拥有昂贵服饰的一个好办法”。 But weddings have been postponed, parties canceled, and Timko is working from home during the coronavirus pandemic. Like many others, she has put her Rent the Runway subscription on hold. She may even cancel it. 但是现在婚礼被推迟了,派对取消了,蒂姆科在新冠疫情期间也都是在家工作。和许多其他人一样,她已经暂停向Rent the Runway缴纳会员费。她甚至可能退订会员服务。 She said renting expensive clothes just isn't worth the money right now — or the risk of getting the virus — as unlikely as that may be. 她表示,现在租昂贵的衣服不值当,还有感染病毒的风险——虽然这不太可能。 |
