What is a capsule wardrobe?

The term has come to refer to a collection of clothing that is composed of interchangeable items only, to maximize the number of outfits that can be created. The aim is to have an outfit suitable for any occasion without owning excessive items of clothing. This is usually achieved by buying what are considered to be “key” or “staple” items in coordinating colors. 

Why do I need one?

There are many different reasons why people choose to refine their closets. However, overwhelmingly people who have adopted the capsule wardrobe report feeling more confident in their choices, needing less time to get ready in the morning and having more mental clarity to devote to other decisions throughout the day. 

Am I going to have to completely start from scratch?

Not unless you want to. The best capsule wardrobes make the best of what you already have and build around that. At the heart of a good capsule, is stewardship and sustainability. Starting from scratch is only necessary if you feel that you could benefit from a full overhaul.

Will building my capsule cost a lot of money?
