How to Pack a Designer Capsule Wardrobe for Fall
What makes this capsule special is that everything goes together. The browns, beiges, and dark denim create a neutral foundation, while the herringbone, argyle, and flannel textures add visual interest without clashing.
You can mix any top with any bottom in this piece, and it works because it’s intentional dressing. Pack the blazer and travel jacket as your outer layers. You can build three or four outfits around the flannel wide-leg pants, jeans, and a skirt.
The bag can hold your essentials, hoops will finish every look, and the pajamas make you feel at home wherever you’re staying. A great capsule wardrobe gets you excited to get dressed. These pieces do just that. They make you feel pulled together without trying, expensive without being flashy, and exude quiet confidence. That is luxury dressing.
