Creating a Capsule Wardrobe!

Summary: The purpose of Creating a Capsule Wardrove is to teach students how to craft and hone their personal style. A capsule wardrobe is an edited, seasonal mini wardrobe containing a limited number of pieces that can be combined in different ways with the idea that all the items can be intermixed and reworked in pairings with other items. Students will learn to maximize, edit, and reuse items in their own closet as well as add new and vintage/used/upcycled clothing to their wardrobe. Students will learn how to put looks together, which materials are more sustainable, and how to shop on a budget. Students will have a number of behind-the-scenes and hands-on experiences at all angles of the fashion world, including meeting with stylists, bloggers/influencers, and owners of businesses. At the end of the week, students will present their capsule wardrobe, highlighting a curated head-to-toe look based on what they’ve learned throughout the week of experiences. The featured look will be worn/displayed in a presentation or fashion show.
