Wardrobe Edit

Overview

The main aim of a wardrobe edit is to declutter the clothing and accessories you currently have and gain access to an easy-to-wear, simple-to-coordinate and fuss-free wardrobe.

This is often a sensible first step in the styling process. Waking up and working out what you’re going to wear shouldn’t ever be a concern or stressful.

We’ll start with a phone/Zoom consultation to help me get a better understanding of your lifestyle and style preferences. We’ll then move on to your wardrobe in person, and work out what items are functional and work for you now and which items you may decide to sell or give to charity/recycle. It is likely that we will also have a selection of clothing that may require alterations for our required fit.

Wardrobe Editing Process

01

Reuse

We look at what you like, why, and what we should keep. We’ll create outfits from your clothes, photograph looks, have a mini colour consultation and organise your wardrobe more effectively for daily use.

02

Repair

It’s highly likely you have some fantastic pieces in your wardrobe and the only thing that stops them looking great on you is the fit. Fit is king, so we will discuss best fit and decide what we send for alterations. 

03

Recycle

What has reached the end of the road clothing wise, or what just doesn’t do you any justice? We’ll make two piles and look at what we should send for recycling and what can be loved by someone else.

What Do You Get?

"My wife purchased me a "wardrobe edit" with Nick as a surprise gift. I was a little sceptical at first & didn't know what to expect. I am pleased to say that the experience was very well done & in fact really enjoyable. Nick was great; full of knowledge, personable & had loads of cool ideas for mel."

Top 5 FAQ's - Wardrobe Edit

There are a number of benefits to us going through your existing wardrobe first

  • Clearing out the clutter before adding new pieces
  • Working out where the gaps are in your existing wardrobe
  • Identifying some of the things that may not be working for you day to day
  • Ensuring all your existing clothes fit you correctly and pointing out what alterations could be made to them to make them work better for you
  • Help to create outfits out of existing clothes you have

It’s important to be able to make the most of your existing wardrobe. A wardrobe edit usually helps in allowing to you piece items together that you wouldn’t have before and really helps to identify where the main gaps are in your wardrobe meaning the personal shop can be a lot more focussed and key results driven.

A major advantage is you’ll also learn and understand why certain pieces work well for you and others don’t. It will usually come down to fit, but often it is colour too. We’ll look into whether we can rectify any current issues.

I definitely don’t recommend this. Both exercises can be a good amount of time and effort and to do both properly there wouldn’t be enough time. I like to leave 3 days to 2 weeks between both sessions because this space allows good processing time after the initial edit and often brings renewed focus and ideas you’ll share with me prior to the shop.

If it’s in your wardrobe usually we can cover it time permitting, there are also a lot of accessories you might want to bring into it such as watches, ties, pocket squares, scarves, wallets, bags, sunglasses etc.

Yes, many clients have wardrobes spread over different locations. If we establish it’s worthwhile looking at them all it’s no problem. There may be a fee involved to cover the cost of travel or time in addition, but that is all.

Usually I don’t, but I can help you arrange a collection or advise on ways you can have them recycled or donated. If you have clothes you want to sell, I can also advise on this.
