5 pieces you need to build an ultimate capsule closet

Posted in

‘Capsule closet’ is a term that was first put together in the 1970s by Susie Faux who used it to describe mix and match basics. More than 50 years later, it evolved to include those must-have staples without which your closet is incomplete. 

In today’s fashion world, a capsule wardrobe refers to a collection of classic staples that work together and allow room for versatility. With just a few limited pieces, you can create look after look without worry.

Whether you’re looking to upgrade your essentials or simply becoming a more efficient packer, having the skills to build a capsule wardrobe can come in handy. From the classic white shirt to the smart yet stylish blazer, we’ve curated a list of 5 essential garments you need that’ll last you a lifetime. It’s time to Marie Kondo your wardrobe.

White Blouse

Wear it to work or a coffee date, a white top is faultless and is the first building block of your entire look. This classic style has endless styling potential which makes it a must-have in any closet. Never look out of place with this investment piece.

Silky Dress

A dress that slides, glides and stuns? A satin smooth statement dress is a versatile piece to own. For evening events, style it with strappy heels and drop earrings to add glamour to the look. Throw on a denim jacket and jewelled flats for a more laid-back approach.

Midi Skirt

Falling halfway between your knee and ankle, midi skirts always bring chicness to any look. Style it with boots, sneakers or flats, this silhouette is feminine, elegant yet fun. Pro tip: Pair your favourite midi skirt with a wide belt and a skin-tight top to highlight your curves.

Printed Pants

An instant outfit booster, printed pants are a fun addition to your capsule closet. From pretty paisley patterns to monochrome prints, these bold bottoms can quickly steal the spotlight. Choose a classic flare silhouette and pair with a solid shirt or top.

Breezy Kaftans

The last few years prove that the kaftan is equally stylish at a sunny beach, your comfy home, or a European holiday. There is no other garment more instantly comfortable, stylish yet sophisticated than this one-piece. Whether you’re attending a destination wedding, garden party to just enjoying a lazy Sunday, this billowing silhouette will soon be your favourite.
