Generally, holiday party dressing means being as fun and playful as possible. Sequins? In the immortal words of Hilary Duff, why not! Velvet? ‘Tis the season, after all! Ridiculous ruffles? Go ahead, unleash your inner little fancy bitch!

But not all shoppers gravitate toward the same trends while hunting for festive attire. Rent the Runway’s lead data scientist crunched some numbers to reveal the most-rented looks in ten cities across the country, spotlighting trends that earned the highest proportion of rentals in each.

West Coast Rent the Runway users are big on sparkle and showing skin, it seems; 20 percent of orders headed to Seattle contain sequins, while 8 percent of San Francisco-bound orders feature gold items and 16 percent of Las Vegas shipments contain minidresses.

In Texas, drama reigns supreme; 5 percent of Dallas rentals include off-the-shoulder silhouettes, while 30 percent of Houstonians go for floor-sweeping gowns. The most popular styles in the Windy City feature long sleeves, while in Miami, partygoers prefer to keep things white hot.

On the East Coast, meanwhile, partygoers prefer more prim and proper looks. In New York City, tea-length dresses comprise 7 percent of all rentals, while in Washington, DC, 18 percent of orders feature full skirts. And in Philadelphia, 20 percent of rentals contain lace looks.
