A capsule wardrobe is very convenient, ergonomic and versatile. It allows you to keep your closet in order, wear absolutely everything that you have (moreover, on a regular basis!), and be on the same page with fashion trends. The advantages of the capsule are that you can create an infinite number of looks from a small set of clothes and accessories, because the elements of the capsule wardrobe are sure to fit together. Thus, you save both time on creating new looks and money on buying new clothes, shoes and jewelry. It’s a perfect solution!
What has to be included into the capsule wardrobe 2022 and how to compose your capsule, taking into account the specifics of the individual style?
CLASSIC CAPSULE CONCEPT
The very word “capsule” already suggests that it is something small and compact. It is the same with the capsule wardrobe: in its standard form, there are only about 40-50 items of seasonal women’s clothing, shoes and accessories. Yes, these are not 28 dresses on hangers that you wear every six months – here you need to think carefully about which models, colors and textures to include in the short list of a new wardrobe. On the other hand, you will immediately feel the lightness and optimization among your clothes: it will be easy to choose looks, and combine wardrobe items with each other, and pack a suitcase on vacation, and save money.
WHAT TO INCLUDE INTO THE SUMMER CAPSULE?
Summer clothes for a capsule wardrobe should include both basic models and something specific for this season in accordance with the current trends. For example, for the current summer, the capsule can include an A-line dress, a light top with straps, a sundress with a flying skirt and slits at the waist, light palazzo trousers, an oversize shirt, straight jeans, a sports crop top, an oversize suiting jacket, a dress with a flare skirt and ties, a linen short skirt or shorts. As for the colors, choose basic colors combined with pastel shades of blue, yellow, peach, lilac and mint, as well as emerald, blue and fuchsia.
SUMMER CLOTHES NOT ONLY FOR SUMMER
Do not forget to think about the clothes that can be used in the looks of the autumn and spring season, so as not to make a separate capsule for the colder season. For example, you can integrate a silk midaxi skirt or a slip dress with straps for looks with a sweater, a turtleneck and high boots into the autumn and even winter wardrobe. If you decide to buy suiting palazzo trousers for the summer capsule, they will also work for colder weather – just make sure to choose a neutral color and a slightly thicker material. Jackets made of eco leather can also be used in looks for any season: they will be useful in the wardrobe all year round.
