How a Capsule Wardrobe Can Perfectly Accentuate Your Custom Closet

Darria Deatherage • Feb 15, 2023

Do you have a custom closet but still struggle with clutter? If you can’t seem to find enough space in your custom closet no matter what you try, it might be time to implement a capsule wardrobe.

But just what is a capsule wardrobe, and how can you put it to use in your closet? Don’t worry, we’ve got all the info you need to know.

Here are some of the benefits of capsule wardrobes:

Easier Mix-and-Matching
Reduced Crowding
More Folding Space
Simpler Outfits
Neater Closets

Now that we know a little about what a capsule wardrobe is and how it works, let’s get into the details and see how you can revolutionize your custom closet with one of these.

Easier Mix-and-Matching

Before we can get into all the ways a capsule wardrobe can help you out, it’s best to get a working definition in place. A capsule wardrobe is another word for a collection of clothes you’ve curated to include articles of clothing that pair well with each other.

With that in mind, it’s easy to see why a capsule wardrobe can help you mix and match your clothes and find new combinations that you know will always work. You can group tops, bottoms, and shoes that would always look great together, and just pick what you need before heading out the door!

Reduced Crowding

When you’re able to section off your closet by separates and those that belong in the capsule wardrobe, it’ll help cut down on clutter and make it easier for you to find what you’re looking for in a pinch.

For added convenience, you might even consider putting in a double hanging rod in your custom closet. With this one simple and inexpensive addition, you’ll have double the hanging space in your closet, and it’ll be that much easier to keep clothes separate as needed.

More Folding Space

Just because a capsule wardrobe lends itself well to hanging space doesn’t mean that you can’t also take advantage of any additional folding room you might have too. This gives you the chance to incorporate multiple capsule wardrobes to suit your needs.

For example, maybe you can put together some cooler-weather clothing and use your hanging space to keep them all together, then store a warmer-weather capsule wardrobe in your custom drawer system. The possibilities are endless, and you can easily switch anything around to suit your wants and needs.

Simpler Outfits

If you struggle with getting out the door on time, a capsule wardrobe can make that possible for you. Instead of having to try on several items and scrutinize whether those garments go well together, you can pick just from items that you know will go well together no matter what. No more running late because you can’t decide what to wear.

And this doesn’t just have to apply to going out, either. As the pros at Better Homes & Gardens point out, you can just as easily put together a capsule wardrobe of robes and other comfy clothes to make chill time even more stress-free.

Neater Closets

Instead of watching as your custom closet slowly spirals out of control, putting in a capsule wardrobe or two will create a positive spiral that will make it that much easier to keep everything else tidier too.

Once you’ve established a system for grouping together clothing items (and finding a place for everything), you’ll have an easier time finding a place for all of your shoes, scarves, accessories, and everything else.

Conclusion

If your custom closet is constantly cluttered, it might be time to try out a capsule wardrobe. It can help you get not just your clothes in order, but everything else in your closet too!
