Keeping it Capsule: Keys to Creating a Sustainable Wardrobe

The capsule wardrobe has long been a favourite with fashionistas everywhere, but it is a techniques which can prove especially useful for fashion fans who are keen to keep it green.

Putting together a capsule wardrobe is the practice of choosing select style items which can not only be worn in different combinations to create a range of different looks, but also tend to be more classic in style. That’s not to say that building a capsule wardrobe means missing out on every passing trend – it simply required a little more consideration. After all, not many of us can afford to splash out on a whole new wardrobe of clothes with every trip to a Rush London salon, or with every event we may be asked to attend. Therefore, having a basic capsule wardrobe to work with can be financially beneficial, as well as a offering a sustainable approach to fashion.

Green fashion can reach beyond simply wearing eco-friendly fabrics and reworked vintage. Choosing to wear pieces which you are going to be able to wear for a long period of time can be one of the best ways to prevent fashion waste. Consciously putting aware a capsule wardrobe is one way to achieve this. Making careful clothing choices isn’t something which should be strictly limited to holidays, when you might be somewhat restricted by suitcase space. Creating a capsule wardrobe for the entire year can be a great way to move the move towards a greener approach to fashion.

With a collection if mix and match items that transcend passing fashion fads, you can still create looks which are very much tailored to your own personal style, without ending up with a pile of discarded items over just one season. These are just a few of the reasons why more and more green-thinking fashionistas are keen to keep it capsule.
