5 key pieces for your spring capsule wardrobe

A tight edit of timeless staples that, you guessed it, won’t ever date, a capsule wardrobe should be looked at as a solid investment – into a series of pieces that you’ll love for a lifetime. 

This considered approach not only makes your day-to-day, season-to-season dressing simpler, it’s also better for the planet; consciously purchasing classic designs means you aren’t impulse buying trend-led styles that you might only wear once (before they end up in landfill). 

Are you ready to build your ultimate love-forever wardrobe, complete with seasonal adjustments to suit the weather? Let’s get set up for spring.

The white T-shirt is a true workhorse: the most dependable of wardrobe essentials, thanks to its endless styling potential. Opt for a classic silhouette made from breathable cotton – beautifully light, durable and versatile.

The beating heart of laid-back style, denim also has the capacity to look smart and chic. This is what makes designs cut from this fabric true wardrobe mainstays, whatever the season. A good pair of jeans and a denim jacket are capsule wardrobe essentials – each can be styled and worn in a multitude of ways. 

Whether worn together or individually, expertly tailored trousers and a blazer have the power to make you look instantly more put-together. Suitable for both business and pleasure, choose neutral tones that are easy to style with other items. 

Do-it-all tote bags are the perfect day-to-night companion. Roomy yet refined, they are a practical and accommodating everyday bag (not least because they can hold everything you could possibly need).

A classic trench coat is an ageless addition to your capsule collection. Perfect for elevating spring outfits, it can be layered up and down – depending on the weather – making it the perfect transitional piece. A tried-and-true fashion staple that you’ll wear time and again.
