Capsule Wardrobe

Essentials. Basics. Wardrobe fail-safes. Whatever you call them, these pieces are the foundation of any capsule wardrobe. They’re the most versatile garments in your closet, meaning you’ll wear them over and over again, paired many ways. They make you feel the most comfortable and confident and you’ll always find yourself turning to them season after season, so keep your focus there.

Once you have the staples, you can build on your wardrobe, choosing pieces that add texture and interest and that you can rotate season after season. When it comes to layering, strategy is the name of the game. Our top tip? Get in front of the mirror and start experimenting to see what works for you. Layering is a chance to be creative with your look. And the best thing about layering (apart from how good it looks when you get it right), is that as we move into warmer months you can peel garments off, and throw them on again as it cools down.

The final step is to put your own stamp on it. Pick a few “finishing touches” at your discretion. The key is to go for accessories that fit your lifestyle. For us, the more practical, the better. Bags that fit everything you need, shoes that work for all parts of your life, headwear that goes wherever you go. It doesn’t matter what you choose, as long as it’s your choice. That, in the end, is the true purpose of this guide: to provide you with the things you need and ultimately inspire you to style them however makes you feel authentically you.
