Roxy Lehmann - founder, Dress for a Night

Roxy is the founder of Dress for a Night, a dress rental business that was created after a realisation of not wanting to spend a fortune on a dress you would wear once, and knowing the impact of fashion on our beloved environment through the cycle of waste.

When Covid hit and all events across Australia were cancelled, Roxy's business was driven into a minus on the balance sheet. But through her entrepreneurial spirit and driving nature as an innovator, they were able to enable a try on service and enhanced their digital capabilities to reach more people across Australia.

Through her daily practices of meditation, 10 things she is grateful for and reflecting each night on one favourite thing of her day, Roxy has been able to enable the best version of herself, as a woman, a business woman and leader.

The last few years have shone a stronger light on sustainability, packaging waste and plastic elimination in the business which has addressed individual business contributions to being the change.
