I've recently created my own capsule wardrobe video with all my findings after years of growing towards it and yet I still learned a lot of new things here! What a journey right? Thank you Daria, enjoyed watching!
thank you for your useful thoughts and tips. i still struggle with creating the "one capsule wardrobe" because i have so many items, which i really love but they don't fit with each other (colorwise). so my status quo is: i have a matching summer wardrobe and a matching winter wardrobe. :D
That’s super normal! That’s how everyone starts 😉 To create a capsule, every new purchase should be as versatile as possible. It might not fit to all your clothes but at least to most of them. And like that, by carefully selecting your new purchases you will get to a versatile capsule wardrobe.
Really helpful information. Many years ago I had a colour consult which was a good starting point to determine which tones look best on me. Then (back before the internet -haha) I went to the library and found a great book about colour capsules for wardrobe. That made me see the possibilities and how to get maximum wear from basic pieces. Now that I am retired, I no longer have the need for a larger wardrobe (working clothes), but find I still enjoy putting together pieces that are harmonious. And of course learning to dress a more mature body takes another shift in learning.....Thank you for sharing your insights with others!
Really useful tips! I follow your channel from some time, but I am still fighting with my cluttered/not totally matching pieces closet. For sure I understand more how clothes schedule can work, but I have still long way to go 😅 I hope to see once such an organized wardrobe as shown by you examples 😍 Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
I'm struggling with my wardrobe due to Covid weight gain. It's a bit frustrating/depressing. I can't wait till the semester ends, so I can retake the Wonder Wardrobe classes again. I definitely need to reassess my style preferences and body shape.definitely
Yes, I gained a bit of weight too and some older clothes don’t fit as well as before. It is frustrating at times but I am trying to stay positive and be ok with my new found curves 😊 we can’t possibly keep the same weight forever so small changes will appear all the time. 🤷♀️ Anyway, I’ll be happy to see you back in the classroom soon! We can discuss it further than.
This video was interesting. It reminds me a lot of the Dressed method. :) It's a beginner sewing book but the first part is all about planning a conscious capsule wardrobe and is very interesting.
Cute! I’ve never heard of them but it looks like they offer sewing patterns for basic items. Have you tried their patterns? Are they good? I have lots of student that sew their capsules too, I’d like to share the link with them. ☺️
This is really cool. It changes how I see my current wardrobe. No wonder I struggle with what to wear, the problem isn't as much lack of coordination as genuinely not having enough clothes for the activities and weather that I see most often. One thing I feel people don't discuss often when planning capsule wardrobes is laundry interval. I think it should be one of the pillars. I don't mind re-wearing the same outfit however many times, I mind not having enough time to do laundry between wears. I would never wear tops for more than a day without washing. I do a load once or twice a week, either darks or lights at a time, then the time it takes to dry... The three month plan helped a lot with mapping that out, though.
Wow, this is very helpful! Have been thinking about a capsule wardrobe for ages but didn't know how to do it. My wardrobe is a mess! No complete outfits, no idea what my style is...nightmare 😔
You're probably still experimenting with your look. It's hard to settle on a style when you're in that process! Some questions that might help are: What job do you have, or are you still in school? What items in your wardrobe make you feel uplifted, confident? How do other people respond to different clothes? Another thing; since you don't have complete outfits, it sounds like you are missing some basic items. I handle that situation by purchasing the most basic style of the missing item in the most basic neutral color that will go with many other things I already have. Like a white button-down dress shirt. A black blazer. Black dress pants. For women, also a basic black skirt and a basic little black dress. Think simple, no frills, because you need to fill in the empty spots in your wardrobe plan. Some people are so attracted to color that they don't buy any neutrals, and so nothing they own goes with anything else. Or their style choices are so erratic that none of their tops go with any of their bottom pieces. That's where simple, neutral basics come in.
@@edennis8578 Thank you for the extra help! I have realised that i don't really follow trends and want stuff that i can wear over & over again but with a little bit of extra pizazz to it now and then so whatever that is, it's my style. I am seriously lacking in basics though. I will be scrutinising my wardrobe with the above considerations in mind & will get out of this 'nothing to wear' rut! Thanks again for your reply 😊
My capsule moodboard featured in your video! I am so honoured and excited! Thank you, Daria! ☺ I am so grateful for your WoW course. I have learnt so much. 🙏
All great, but then I cannot find anything I like in shops :( It looks like one season there is quite a lot of colors and styles I like...and then some other season almost zero :/ Because they have to change styles every year... right now all are like from 80's and 90's and almost nothing i like in shops :/ I know what I want to buy but if I find a style I like I never can find color/shade I want or size.
I buy my clothes online. It took some trial to find online brands that fit me and have good quality, but now I can find almost anything I want, in the color I want, in my size. In years when something comes into style that's normally hard to find, I stock up. Colors are especially hard for me, so when I have the opportunity to get it, I buy it. If I don't, that color might not be available for 20 years. Not kidding. I've experienced that.
My personal style is essentially built around statement pieces and my looks are based on silhouette so I am really not a candidate for a capsule wardrobe but I’m interested in the concept. I’m hoping it might give me a couple of tips to be a bit more ruthless with a bit of a declutter before I move house 😂
My capsule is also based around statements. I usually have around 1-3 basic items only. So it's not a problem at all. A capsule wardrobe doesn't mean you clothes or silhouettes should be boring it's just what most people do. You can watch any of my capsule videos and see how you can express any style and use any colours and still have a versatile capsule.
You said, you can sell the clothes you don’t wear. Any suggestions where to sell it and who will buy it? It looks like people do not buy second hand clothes in our days. Thanks
Not sure where you are (Canada?) but the secondhand clothing market is booming right now and LOTS of people are buying preloved clothes! Look for local consignment stores, try Poshmark Canada, eBay, Mercari, Depop, Vinted (as another commenter mentioned above). Good luck!
Oh it depends on your skin undertone, hair colour and eye colour. But mostly they are either Winter or Autumn types just because most of their features are dark.
@@ji8198 People usually gravitate naturally to colors that look good on them. What colors do you find yourself attracted to? What colors make you look healthier? I'm a Spring, so my colors are all over the place, from cool to warm, but I know that I can't wear dusty pink or dusty purple; they make me look dead. I need clear colors with no grayness. My pinks are best when they're a little bit toward peach or coral. No bluish pinks. It's trial and error, mainly, if you can't get a color draping in person. Really, just take photos of yourself wearing different colors. You'll see what looks good on you, and it works better than just looking in the mirror.
What about laundry? A lot of the outfits mix n match the same items - which is the point, and can look totally different - but don’t you end up doing laundry way more often?
@@wonderwardrobe yes. I wear a lot of black, I am 59. My best color is khaki. My veins are blue, natural color hair color is dark brown. Favorite color is pink. Soo frustrating 😫
It’s hard to say without seeing you. I can only help you with it if you take the Colour Harmony class or the full Wonder Wardrobe course and do a proper colour test.
What about a woman who doesn't work in an office (say, a house wife, a mother, a writer, or whatever), who would like to dress elegantly but doesn't like the office style?
@@wonderwardrobe Thanks Daria, I'll check that out. I discovered your work only yesterday! So far I noticed that so many capsule wardrobe teachers take for granted that women work in an office! It is annoying to me!
@@mariondapsance7803 feel you, I'm à gardener so I work outdoors with dirt and manure lol so I don't necessarily get to wear regular clothes on the daily but I love fashion so I have too many clothes. Idk how to work it out :(
This is the first capsule wardrobe video that actually gives me how to figure out how to decide what capsule(s) to do.
Besides your very valuable suggestions regarding wardrobe: you are the most uplifting person on the www in these dark times. Thank you for that!
Aww thanks 😅 I try my best even though it’s not easy atm
100% true
This was helpful, concise, and fun. Your videos just get better and better! Cheers Daria!

The laundry is not complicated if you have enough clothes. I usually have at least 10-12 tops per season. This way I only do laundry once a week.

You are amazing at breaking down the basic concepts and much more generous with information. That’s empowering ‼️
I liked that you include hijabis in this, I'm subscribing + that was so useful ❤️
You are wearing my new favorite wardrobe color. I have added some inew items to my closet this year
Lovely clear video. Thanks, Daria.
Nice! Love it too, so fresh 🥰 how do you match it?
@@wonderwardrobe with Navy, white or just monochromatic. 😊
My short:
1. Count outfits in 3 months
2. Personal style
3. Color analysis
4. From you already have
GENIUS!

I'm finally going to start my capsule. Btw will an olive undertone always be either a summer or winter?
Nice! Have fun! No, you can be any type, you need to look at all your features, it’s very important.
I only wear skirts or midi dresses would the same principles apply. I feel like a pair of jeans is not like a jean skirt help
This was so helpful
I am working on identifying my colors and i suspect i am a “bright winter” Where can i find clothing that suits a bright winter?
Thank you so mucg
Very helpful, thank you
Wonderful video
Hey, the pink clothes storage bag at 9.08 is custom made? It is really nice😊

How can we purchase the colour clothing cards according to our season?
You can purchase colour palettes here: wonder-wardrobe.com/color-palettes-matching-outfits
The warm colors are sold out. Do you know when they will be available?
They will be available in the end of next week.

I am interested in buying any books that you have written/published on fashion -Kathy
I keep trying & failing at the capsule thing.
Do you know why you fail? What is the hardest thing?
You said, you can sell the clothes you don’t wear. Any suggestions where to sell it and who will buy it? It looks like people do not buy second hand clothes in our days. Thanks
Depop and vinted are just a couple
