Last night, we hit up Junoon in New York's Flatiron district for a preview of Bibhu Mohapatra's capsule collection for Rent the Runway. As guests sipped on cocktails and sampled Indian delicacies, we got to feeling nostalgic about a time when videos were the main item we rented—and we had to haul ourselves over to our local Blockbuster to do so. In the gallery above, check out what happened when we asked guests to name the last movie they rented from an actual store. —Shannon Perry
