What is a capsule wardrobe?

To provide a bit of context, the term emerged in the 20th century. It’s true that we’ve been hearing about the capsule wardrobe on social media, in magazines, and it’s a practice widely embraced by fashionistas and even seen on fashion runways, we’ve already noticed this trend. When this concept started to gain popularity, it was clear that it would be the answer to the big question: “What should I wear today?”

Why is having a capsule wardrobe useful?

The trend of building a perfect capsule wardrobe is a practical and ideal way to create basic everyday outfits using classic, simple pieces—and most importantly, to become increasingly conscious, responsible, and sustainable consumers. Investing not only in clothing but also in quality accessories is a way to support the environment through the slow-fashion movement.

How to choose the right accessories for your capsule wardrobe?

The person who popularized this now-common term was the designer Donna Karan, who claimed that a good capsule wardrobe consists of around 30-40 pieces, including shoes, bags, complements, and accessories. All these items are characterized by minimalism, simplicity, and quality. The idea is that every wardrobe essential should be timeless, never go out of style, and be useful for both summer and winter.

What accessories should you include in your capsule wardrobe?

We completely agree with choosing basic, classic pieces for our wardrobe. But when it comes to leather bags, shoes, and accessories, we believe that if clothing is important, a good complement is essential.

Our products meet the requirements of maximum quality because they are made from leather. The timelessness of our models—be it flats, classic leather Mary Janes, or sneakers—makes them a perfect choice.

The essential pieces for your capsule wardrobe this spring/summer season

A staple we can’t go without is a basic white shirt. The perfect solution to the “What should I wear?” dilemma, it never fails… We don’t know if it’s because of its timelessness, romantic style, or the details on its sleeves, but we absolutely love it. We know it’s perfect for pairing with any suit trousers, bell-bottom jeans combined with Ameliè heeled ballet flats, a Gabi ballet flat, or even a pair of jute espadrilles.
