ABOUT MY CHANNEL:
Hello there! My name is Fernanda and I started putting together Capsule Wardrobes for Project 333 back in 2015. Since then, I have completely rearranged my closet and now have a minimalist wardrobe, and I dress from a base of 15-piece capsule wardrobes every season that I put together with a simple capsule wardrobe formula. If you're looking to learn how to out together a capsule wardrobe, how to style few pieces for many different occasions, or how to include color and bold prints into your wardrobe, then I'm here to help!

Finally! Someone who doesn't buy bunch of clothes every week just to show in a video. The pictures are enough!
It’s so hard to find modest tops and dresses right now, everything is cropped, backless, strapless, bra-style, has cutouts or bra-unfriendly spaghetti straps, it’s not my best year for summer shopping. Linen shirts, skirts, pants and normal dresses to the rescue!
I have always dressed modestly. Thank you for this! It’s so hard to find fashionable clothing that isn’t cropped, doesn’t have spaghetti straps, etc. I’m not afraid to shop in the older women’s sections of stores… lol. My grandma has always been my style icon and she was always modest.
Dressing modest because you don’t feel like shaving 🙋🏽♀️ yeah that’s me lol
The rayon/viscose/lyocell/modal fabric family is greatly undervalued, it’s so cool and breathable that it’s used to make athletic clothes that actually cool the body down. It also has many silk-like qualities, like soft hand and drape, resiliency and wrinkle resistance. I love it woven on its own, knitted alone or with a little elastane, and blended with cotton, linen, silk, and even wools. It’s not a synthetic, which are made from plastic, it’s made entirely from natural plant fibers like wood and bamboo. Very cheap viscose can, like other fabrics, be limp or shrink, higher quality and greater thickness are definitely worth it in any fabric.
Such a video exists??????? I have yet to watch it but I just can't believe this. This is exactly what I needed
Thank you!! Love all the colors, and I appreciate how inclusive you were with the possible reasons for wanting to dress modest. Me, I just don't like shorts because I don't like the feeling of the back of my bare legs touching whatever I'm sitting on lol XD
Thank you for this! I dress covered for religious reasons, but I still get ideas from all your capsules!
I'm glad the videos are helpful! Do you have any other tips for staying cool while covered up? You probably know better than I do!
@@vazq_Fernanda I’m used to it, lol, but light colored clothing!
Thank you!
Thank you! As a mom of 3 little kids it’s so much easier to dress modest and not worry about a wardrobe malfunction when carrying/playing with them. This was great!
I didn't think of that, so true! I should put together a 'mom of little kids' capsule with practical, unfussy, easy to care for clothing that still makes you feel cute.
This is a big reason as a teacher I warm modest dressing. I need to bend over a lot and a short or even knee length dress is too much trouble.
THANK YOU, you are the only video i've found like this, i only wear skirts and 3/4 to full length shirts may God bless u
One actually stays cooler outdoors in long pants and sleeves in light-colored cotton or linen clothing than with bare skin, which soaks up the sun’s heat. Dark linen dresses or separates are great for after sundown.
You have a lot of really insightful comments! Do you have a channel? Would love to see these ideas in fashion. I am very fair and have to be careful in the sun.
I got a white linen scarf from H&M recently that is perfect to add modesty or sun protection without overheating. Sometimes I just use it to protect my décolletage from too much sun, even with sunscreen, this is usually the oldest-looking part of the body as we age. It’s very lightweight, too, for travel in conservative countries. Most women my age have really leathery, wrinkly, spotty chest skin because they were sun worshippers when young. This is preventable.
Linen culottes (or a linen-cotton mix culotte) are a great summer staple. Highly recommend!
Thank you *so much* for doing a modest summer capsule wardrobe with no short layers! It’s often so discouraging when all the summer clothes depicted are incredibly short, which is not helpful if you have modesty code / values, or a professional dress code, or are a mom trying to keep up with little ones without having a wardrobe malfunction! I have had my share of oopsies that I do not want to repeat. It’s so stressful to constantly be pulling at hemlines and checking yourself while wrangling kids.
I hadn’t thought about modesty for traveling but you are totally right about the Middle East! 💗
I really love rayon/viscose/ modal for the summer, because I find linen harder to care for (ironing/steaming) so I reach for it less, and rayon has become my best friend in summer. 💖
Those are definitely the most breathable fabrics!
I love belts and woven, braided, or perforated leather ones, or straw or cotton ones, are just that bit cooler for summer.
I'm not necessarily concerned about modesty beyond being office appropriate, but this capsule is definitely giving me some ideas. I do need to get a few new pieces for when my remote work ends, but in my office the air is either super hot or super cold inside and there is a huge benefit to having clothes that can withstand both. In particular, I'm really getting to be a fan of linen clothing.
I hear you, I wouldn't describe my style as 'modest' either, and I have trouble with the word, but I wasn't sure how to describe it otherwise. But like I said, I am having trouble dressing not showing my shoulders, I never realized how much I like to have them bare!
I love linen, partially because i's ok if it's a little wrinkled. 😅 I like getting a pass!
Love it! I just figured out I'm an autumn, and we are starting autumn here in Brazil next week... I can totally see myself using this capsule wardrobe for this season with a little adjustment in the colors. Thanks so much for this video!
One of my favorite videos you have done (and I have watched them all)! So much inspiration and offers the ability to adjust with short sleeves, shorter skirts, etc. to have so many options. I know others have also requested an office, business casual capsule, and I am hoping for that too, as we are going back to the office soon and after being home for a year and a half I feel like I am starting from scratch again!
Ok perfect! I don't have many formal work clothes but let me see if I can get a sponsor to help me out so I can put this together for you.
This is exactly what I've been looking for !
That's a very pretty, thoughtful and versatile wardrobe. And it's colorful too!
It's easy to take your formula and adapt it for our needs/preferences/style/what we already have or have available.
I also like that we can get inspired from it for all seasons too.
That's what I really wanted! I want anyone to feel confident that they can build a wardrobe that mixes and matches and works for them, because it is possible! Regardless of taste, measurements, lifestyle, etc.
This was so good to see. Please do a office workwear capsule.
YES!!! this would totally work!!! LOVE THIS idea!
you're so cute and charismatic.. and your advice are incredibly helpful. thank you 🤲🏻🤍
What a refreshing video!
All great options fun and bright. Thanks
Great video with so many applications! Love the shopping links too - really simplifies finding the pieces to the puzzle.
I had so many more options, but LTK only lets me do 16 at a time!! 😤 I had for all budgets and sizes, I'm gonna have to update a bit later!
Loved this video, great job!
This is a good capsule for moms; too. Especially with very active toddlers!
I would imagine that comfort is key in those situations!
Love to see you have included a beautiful bird print top from my super all time favourite shop: Boden. Here in the UK we love their bold and colourful prints and excellent quality. Quintessential British style!!! 😁
Interesting that you should note that because Boden ended up being a GREAT source for this capsule! I wasn't super familiar with them before but I found a ton of great options on their site.
A really useful video! Thank you!
Great video! Thank you!🎉
This was GREAT ☺️ I like you explained why you chose each piece too
Means a lot from THE QUEEN OF MODEST CAPSULES herself!
Love it! I'm currently in the US, so I can wear shorts, etc. But I live in West Africa and have to wear long skirts. I found myself nodding along to a lot of your points, like the type of material is key. Thanks for putting the capsule together.
Right, I remember we talked about where you live before! I feel like you probably have some really good tips for this!
Thank you so much for this video ❤️❤️
Of course! Thank you for requesting it! I hope it was helpful!
This was an excellent video for me because I'm uncomfortable showing my body skin so I loved this video. I'm mature and have recently lost a ton of weight so have heaps of loose skin that I like to keep concealed. Thank you for these ideas.
Of course! We should wear whatever makes us feel our best, whether that's covered or not!
Whilst i like wearing shorts 2020 got my legs all :$ (completely a personal thing...wear shorts if you wanna...I just don't wanna!!) I am calling this part of my life the culotte years and loving it!! Looking forward to watching your ideas on how I can keep cool in the heat!
Girl, I hear you!!! My clothes got so much wider and looser in the last year, and I am coming to terms with the fact that a lot of my pre-pandemic pants are just too tight now. I'm in the process of looking for clothes that flatter my new body, it's an ever-changing thing! But yes, those culottes have come in VERY handy!
My legs are good shape-wise, but at my age (close to 50), blood vessels are showing either in blue, or by bulging. I know ladies who thump their noses at this- hey, go ahead and wear shorts if you like! :-) _I_ just _don't_ like to. Cheers for culottes, and lightweight palazzo pants. ;-)
Loved this! Thank you.
My pleasure!!
Love your videos!
I love your comments! 🥰🥰 Your support means a lot!
Nice video! This can also work for hot days, where you have to survive the arctic winds in the air-conditioned office too. :)
THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
This is a great wardrobe. It is great to have more ideas of what to match, especially during vacation. No matter what I pack, it always seems to be the wrong thing??? Thanks for this Fernanda.
Hi Shirley! Have you seen my capsule wardrobe formula video? I feel like that will give you a good idea of how to pack a capsule that makes sense. Also, I have a video coming up on packing soon, so make sure you're subscribed!
I do not dress modestly much of the time, but I do work in a somewhat conservative field (education) and often travel to places where women show a lot less skin than I. I am very mindful of how appropriate my clothes are anywhere I go. One of my favorite items to have, especially when I travel: really large silk-like scarves. I use them to cover my hair, shoulders, and/or legs as needed. I liked this video, Fernanda, it shows one can look both "current" and "lively" even when not showing every inch of one's body.
That's a really good tip! That could have been a special item, easily. Thank you for sharing! Are you still traveling now even in the pandemic?
@@vazq_Fernanda No, I'm not traveling just yet, mostly for the sake of others. I'm fully vaccinated, but since I'm back to working in person and interacting with hundreds of people a day, I want to limit my fellow human beings from any chance that I might've picked up the virus and unwittingly transmit it to someone who's not had the shot. I partook in a "non-essential" activity for the first time yesterday, after refraining from such things for 15 months! (I went to see "In the Heights", which I had enjoyed on stage and was curious to see in theaters. If you like musicals, I recommend---Latino immigrants in New York...what we embrace, what we give up in regret...)
OH MY GOD. It's my favorite musical. I first saw it in 2010 when I was in college, I was a theatre major, and it was the first time when I felt that I could actually work in the industry, cause there were not many roles for hispanic girls in the big shows at that point. I've seen the movie a few times already! Did you like it?
@@vazq_Fernanda I didn't want to make assumptions that you would like it, but YES! I'm from the Caribbean (PR) but have been away for 25+ years, and have no family here...the second I saw the Cafe Crema on the shelves in the bodega, my eyes welled up. This movie was the BEST way to come out of pandemic isolation.
You look like a Spanish princess 👑
Appreciate this! Formal wear while living in a tropical country is so hard to shop for!
Where do you live?
You have some lovely picks here, especially the pink trousers. I recently needed to add a few things to my wardrobe, and I was inspired by your culottes video to add some… I love them!
I saw the most wonderful pair of PLEATED culottes today! I didn't know you could do that, but they were amazing!
Oh Fernanda, this capsule was so well thought out and resonated with me so much. I like to cover my upper arms because I'm a little older and the very harsh Australian sun, can be brutal (often 46°c). I love the maxi shirt dress and jumpsuit and thinking seriously of introducing these items into my wardrobe for next summer. Both would get a lot of wear. Many of the other pieces I can shop my closet for already 😃. What a fabulous innovation those interchangeable heels are too! Thank you, so inspired 💗
I hear you!! I live in Utah now. The high desert sun is extreme and I need my shoulders and upper arms covered!
Great topic and examples 🙌
I'm glad you like it!
@@vazq_Fernanda Compared to “shopping my own closet” for pieces similar, yours is so much more colorful and the colors go well with each other 👏!
Mine is just white and black with the exception of an maxi skirt that’s orange 😂 all solids, no patterns, not even stripes, especially the bottoms - no wonder it looks boring 😂 although I do have some one piece dresses with patterns - not as versatile though. Needs work 😆
But that's how we start! My first capsule was a total mess, the pieces didn't match nicely and had no interesting pieces. It takes time to get it right! But if you start by shopping your closet and identifying the holes, then you can be conscious about filling them and not buying more of the same.
@@vazq_Fernanda Yeahhh, I’m coming verrry slowly around to the capsule principle of lower limits than I have as I work on the project of wearing all my pieces 😱 but not quiiite there yet 😹 we shall see - it is taking me a long time to wear everything I have 😹
Progress, not perfection! You'll get there, and you'll find your own sweet spot eventually :)
Thank you for this video. There are not many videos on how to keep covered up and cool in summer. I personally prefer to cover up for many reasons - heat rashes, dry skin, eczema, to protect my skin from the sun and also I just like too. I have never felt the desire to show my legs, arms or shoulders. However my main issue is how to mix and match and what to put together. This video is perfect.
Ok good to know! I'll see if I can make a followup next summer with different pieces.
Linen! It’s soft, smooth, breathable and cool.
What a great packing list too! I’ve been searching RUclips for modest summer packing list that is stylish for a 55 year old. Headed to Lebanon in July and nothing on RUclips that is stylish, age appropriate and modest.
Oh this is perfect then!!! I have a video coming soon on packing a capsule wardrobe, I hope it comes out before your trip. Have fun!!
Old video, but a great one, and a new subscriber because of it 🥰🙌
Thank you for sharing!
I dress modestly as a part of my faith. I am Apostolic Pentecostal, and only wear skirts and dresses, no jewelry or makeup either.
Add in crutches, extreme hiking, 5”3/160cm, and petite, but with blessed parts it can be so hard to get dressed, but I have some tricks. 😆🙌💪🏻 (Yes I am the neighborhoods tiny mascot, everyone knows who the one with the crutches and skirt that walks and walks 😆 I have a child diagnosis in my hip, and have had a total hip replacement for 2,5 years ago, and it didn’t go well, but I love walks so I make the best of it. Just explaining because I easily gets questions and me and my crutches are doing well together, 5 years in 🥰)
I will stop babbling and share my tips 😆🙈
I love a good A line flowy skirt, but the wind loves it too 😆 I always wear a hair elastic on my wrist. If the wind is nuts, I take the extra fabric and put the elastic around. It looks a little like a knot, and that has been in fashion for some season ago, but I have done this for years. I also wear a slip, that help with not clingy fabric. Using a little fabric softener with water in a spray bottle can also help with the clingy situation.
Since I am petite I buy higher tank tops at the kid section at H&M, I know others buy at the mens apartment, and other again that uses it backwards so it is lower in the back. Many tops today have lower backs, so that don’t solve the problem for me though, and I like a higher back too.
I do use a good bra, that is a priority, and I love a light pink/nude color tank under more lighter fabric and a dark for “lining” under darker fabrics. I do wear some more sheer fabrics now after I found my tricks with the right color “lining” for different color tops. I have two that cover most of my tops, one black and one light pink. When you don’t see the lining and the contrast with skin/clothing I feel more covered. I don’t wear total see trough, just some more sheer/lighter weight once’s.
Buy the summer clothes in others seasons. I want mid calf, long sleeves, no cleavage, no backless, not clingy, but not a potato bag either, and finding that in tropical summer can be hard. Just look at the fabric and colors. Also buy the leggings in other seasons. Last summer there was 3 months with only 2 2pk leggings to find at 3 different stores if H&M’s, none online either. It was either to tick, or with feets/socks.
Biker shorts can help with both modesty, clingingnest, and not getting your tights rubbing against each other. With the trend of more miniskirts I find these very accessible in different fabrics, much more then the leggings..
A light weight fall/spring scarf can be used as a jacket for colder evenings. Even a poncho for those that like that. I find it sometimes hard to find the right jackets. I do have the rain gear and for wind, winter, and more dressier, but when I need something between, a large scarf is my go to. Nice to wrap around your shoulders.
A stitch or two, or a safety pin can help with all from to much cleavage for your comfort, fixing a slit, and so much more 🥰
Last one, if you don’t want to use a hair tie for the flowey skirts, a longer jacket or cardigan can help with holding it down. I have a trench coat for that. It’s easy to look a little frumpy, but it can be pulled of 😊
Thank you again 😊
Love from Johanne, Norway 🇳🇴
I love the tip of buying summer clothes in other seasons and paying attention to fabrics - this makes so much sense! Thanks for the detailed response, I love having you! 🥰
@@vazq_Fernanda Your welcome, and thanks for responding! I don’t except that, especially from larger channels, and older videos 🥰
I try to get back to everyone, but it's not always possible. I do my best to stay on top of it!
Do you have a dress code at work or at school? I have never had one at work, but I do have an interview this week and I realized that I don't own any clothes that properly cover my shoulders that I could wear to it. 😬 Funny how this video lined up with my life!
Wow this is a really nice capsule. I love the sandals and how you succeed at throwing a playful element in a versatile capsule.
Please, please, please post an updated 2022 Modest Summer Capsule Wardrobe with links!!!!!
Are you in summer now? Or you mean summer in the northern hemisphere?
💚 linnen 💚 cotton 💚 hemp 💚
Well done 👌🏻 I love your colorful examples 😊 For the people who struggle with mixing patterns: choose only tops with patterns or bottoms with patterns and solid shoes, accessories and jackets. It could be easier to mix and match 🤗
This is a great tip for those new or careful with pattern mixing! Thank you for sharing!
I appreciate this as someone recently diagnosed with Lipedema who has to wear medical compression leggings year round. I live in AZ and it gets hot so I have been worrying about how I'm going to look nice without overheating and still covering these unattractive leggings.
I had to wear compression stockings a few years ago, and wore mostly maxi skirts or coulottes or wide linen trousers
Loose natural materials will be key - it can definitely be done!
Just went to AK, going to Hawaii and Israel soon!
NICE!!! I'm jealous! Enjoy your vacations!!
🙋🏻♀️I don’t like shaving my legs. But I’m also married and have a mom-bod. 😅 (Diastasis recti makes people ask if I’m pregnant when I’m not, I’ve had it since I had my 2nd child who is now 8, so I like to wear flowy clothing that hides my mid section.)
Apart from any other reason, it just feels nice , specially in the summer, to have a long skirt swishing round and also to know that nothing shows that one would rather not flaunt . More exposed flesh certainly does not mean more sexy or any cooler - just the opposite in my opinion.
I agree that more skin does not equal sexier, but I don't necessarily feel that being completely covered is always sexier either. I think it's more about attitude, but also, FIT!
Was not impressed with this one. But think I need a boho white dress! Just didn’t like the pastels I guess and the shoes with anything other than the pink pants. Hated the linen print shirt.. I really liked some of the other ones you have done colorwise
Thanks for the color! I am so tired of the nothing but neutrals mind set. So blah and would get old very fast! My closet contains every color of the 🌈
Neutrals are super trendy right now, but I feel like they don't suit everyone well! I prefer color too!
Dressing modestly due to sun yeah that's me
Interchangeable heels!? Wuuttt!?!?
I KNOW! There's a couple of companies that do this now but these are the only cute shoes I've seen.
Omg, this is surely the best idea!
Erm… anyone else loath those all in one outfits (top and trousers in one)? They look great, for sure, but going to toilet in a pain in the ass!! Haha
For sure it's more difficult to go pee in those, but they are SO COMFORTABLE! You can't beat that!
Or dressing nicely for church.
True! Though this is too casual for that, no?
Wonderful, at age 61, I don’t want to show much leg above the knees, just an inch or two, but mostly I wear midis and Bermudas. I have great legs, they look exactly as they did 40 years ago, a genetic characteristic, but I don’t think mini-skirts or short-shorts are appropriate for my age. They look a little sad, like the wearers are really desperate to look younger. Dressing like a teenager at this age doesn’t fool anyone, it just looks pathetic. At home, anything goes, of course, and bathing suits excepted, too, not that I ever wear mine, I’m not a water or sun loving person. Modesty is not just for religious reasons, I’ve been a modest dresser all my life, just from personal preference. My super-sexy body attracted too much unwanted attention until about age 45-50 as it was, the last thing I wanted was to tart myself up!
Totally agree. Especially if you are 5'9 and curvy with a bigger butt. I don't like to be leered at in public and if I dress form fitting it feels like I am inviting it no matter what. People assume that you want the attention if you dress a certain way, let's be honest.
You forgot age. Most older women do not want to show arms, especially upper arms and legs.
It's true! I don't want to say that you may want to cover up because of age, because I don't believe that we HAVE to cover up as we age, but it's definitely a good reason to do it! Whatever makes people comfortable!
