Where to Begin Creating Your Capsule
Wondering where to begin with creating your capsule wardrobe, we’ve crested some simple steps to help you begin the process and to cleanse your wardrobe ready for a sustainable wardrobe.
Follow these steps and share how you get on!
3. Repair - After pulling out the pieces you wear on a regular basis and the pieces that make up your capsule. Look through your wardrobe to see if there are any pieces that you love but aren’t wearing due to damage or in need of alterations or professional cleaning. Put these items to one side and book these items in to be fixed.
4. Monetise - With what you are left with and you don’t feel the love for, work out if these items are in a sellable condition. Use different platforms to sell these pieces on and to give them a new home. If they aren’t sellable, look at alternative options such as clothing banks to donate these too. With your pieces that are more for occasion, look to see if you can monetise these by renting them out on relevant platforms.
1. Make time - Dedicate an afternoon to this, as I’m sure many of our wardrobes are overfilled and it can feel overwhelming to know where to start; it is best to make sure you have a few clear hours set aside to really get stuck in and start the process.
