Travelling made easier with Garde Rode

Garde Robe has given new meaning to the concept of “travelling light”.

Members of this unique New York-based concierge service have been storing their clothing, shoes, personal effects and toiletries with them for some time now. And recently, Garde Robe expanded its services to Tokyo.

How it works is that members store their apparel and personal items with Garde Robe, which are delivered to the hotel where they are staying in ready-to-wear condition. These allows clients to travel without the hassle of waiting in baggage claim lines. At the end of the trip, these are retrieved by a Garde Robe representative for inspection and cleaning if required.

To simplify the garment request process, all stored items are professionally photographed and catalogued onto a secure “Cyber Closet”, which clients can access 24/7 at www.garderobeonline.com. The company will also pack and ship garments worldwide.
