If shifting through piles of clothing and choosing an outfit tends to give you major headaches, a capsule wardrobe might be the answer.
“A capsule wardrobe makes sense for everyone, since many people wear only five per cent of the clothes they own,” says Berlin-based personal shopper Andrea Lakeberg, in Germany. For many of us, it is that one jacket, that one shirt or blouse, that one pair of trousers which we really like to wear.
A capsule wardrobe is built precisely around those favourite items and can be easily created by following five simple steps.
1. Clear things out
Every capsule wardrobe starts with clearing things out. The easiest way to do it is by removing all your clothes from your wardrobe. Sort out anything you no longer like, items which do not fit, as well as anything that is damaged. Only put back the clothes you wear regularly.
