Basic & Capsule Wardrobe Planning

Studies show that we wear only 20% of the clothing in our closet.

A ‘basic’ wardrobe consists of acquiring appropriate garments that will provide you with confidence and class, within your profession and lifestyle. The basics depend on the needs of the individual and his/her industry.

A ‘capsule’ wardrobe consists of the preplanning and purchase of separate garments based on their ability to coordinate with one another. With prudent shopping you can create 35 or more, different “outfits” with as few as 12 garments.

The capsule wardrobe benefits; you will need less clothing, which is cost, time and space efficient. If you travel frequently, a week of traveling is simplified when as few as 4 to 5 pieces can create multiple outfits. The capsule wardrobe works with business casual guidelines.


Body Type & Individual Style

Individual colouring, height, weight, and proportions are unique qualities that contribute to the diversity in human form. Learning your body type and understanding your unique “style”, provides vital information so you can reveal your best features. You will learn which styles, fabrics and accessories work best for your personality and your proportions.


Closet Audit & Management

The first place to shop is your own closet. Knowing your best colours, styles and fabrics enables you to select flattering garments and you will understand why you wear only 20% of your clothing. The 80% will be re-assessed for your best styles, colours and fabrics. With modifications in linear proportions, your rarely worn clothing may be transformed into “new” figure enhancing outfits.

Following the audit, our closet management provides tips to:

Ease congestion and maintain good condition of your garments
Understand which hangers and closet accessories are best
Hang garments for crease resistance and durability
Arranging garments for ease in sight and selection
Plan a new closet system specifically designed for your needs


Personal Shopping

You have now experienced some of your best colours, styles and fabrics. Organized and prepared with your body type, personality, measurements, closet contents, and budget, we create your shopping list and make an appointment to go shopping.

Your most flattering clothing is selected and taken to the fitting room. Seeing what works best for you and why, will support your shopping proficiency when you are on your own.

Whether your budget allows you to purchase a complete wardrobe at once, or you start with the purchase of the basics and gradually add on, your wardrobe and/or capsule plan can be followed in all seasons of the year.

You will never again say, “I have a closet full of clothes and nothing to wear.” - Imagine a closet that contains only the clothing and accessories that you love to wear!

“As you clothe yourself each morning, you build the small dwelling that you will inhabit for the day.”
