Capsule wardrob, what is it? How to build your own? A 2023 look on sustainable fashion.
Introduction
A capsule wardrobe is a fixed-size collection of versatile, high-quality clothing that can be combined in various ways to produce numerous outfits.
The goal of building a capsule wardrobe is to reduce the time you spend getting dressed in the morning and eliminate stress when shopping for clothes.
Think about how many different combinations of clothing pieces you've worn over the past year: if it's more than 10 or 15, then your closet probably has too much variety—not good!
What is a capsule wardrobe?
A capsule wardrobe is a fixed-size collection of versatile, high-quality clothing that can be combined in various ways to produce numerous outfits. It's a style of dressing that focuses on simplicity and versatility.
A basic capsule wardrobe contains 20 to 40 pieces, including jeans or trousers, tops (T-shirts or blouses), dresses and jackets for both day and evening wear as well as shoes or boots.
Why should you build your own capsule wardrobe?
Save money.
Look good.
Look more stylish.
Feel good about yourself for saving time and space, reducing stress, and looking great!
How to build a capsule wardrobe?
To start building your capsule wardrobe, you need to consider a few things.
Firstly, what is the color palette of your capsule wardrobe? It can be an entire rainbow or just one shade.
The second thing to consider is silhouette - do you want to stick with classic pieces like jeans and T-shirts or do something more adventurous like jumpsuits or dresses?
The third step is choosing a theme for each season in your closet; this will help narrow down the number of items needed for each season. For example: if winter has specific themes such as "formal" or "athletic", then those categories would have their own separate sections within the wardrobe (and therefore wouldn't be used during any other season).
The fourth step would be choosing fabrics based on weather conditions; wool coats work well in cold weather whereas linen shirts are perfect for hot summers days!
Finally comes accessories like shoes bags etc., which also helps define style preferences even further by selecting certain styles over others based on personal taste rather than availability/price point alone."
How to maintain a capsule wardrobe?
Keep it in a dry, temperature-controlled environment.
Avoid direct sunlight and exposure to water, as this may cause fading or discoloration.
Don't overstretch the garment by pulling on it too hard; this will lead to permanent creasing and damage your clothes faster than normal wear would do so on its own!
Wash all garments using cold water (this is especially important for any items that have been dyed), then dry them on low heat only--never hang-dry!
A capsule wardrobe is not just about having fewer pieces; it's also about having only the best quality items in your closet that work togher with each other in perfect harmony.
If you buy clothes that last longer, you'll end up spending less money over time because they won't need replacing as often--and that means less waste for our planet!
Conclusion
A capsule wardrobe is a fixed-size collection of versatile, high-quality clothing that can be combined in various ways to produce numerous outfits. It's great for people who love fashion but don't have the time or money for it, or for people who adore minimalism and/or sustainable lifestyle.
