The concept of curating a capsule wardrobe is nothing new, but now more than ever, the notion of having a reliable collection of items seems timely, especially since so many brands are breathing new life into even the most mundane closet essentials. There really isn’t anything more luxurious right now than slipping on an expertly crafted cashmere knit, a perfect white T-shirt, or a tailored pair of designer jeans.

If you’re keen to stay in the know of what everyone is wearing to stay chic on the streets, you might have noticed the abundance of less-is-more outfits taking center stage. Even glorious fashion houses that are known for their maximalist approach to design are leaning into the minimalist magic of simplicity with understated luxury items rounding out their collections. After all, practicing self-restraint—while sometimes difficult—is one of the most luxurious things one can do.

As the season’s temperatures continue to drop, now’s the time to hit refresh on your approach to getting dressed. What’s the easiest way to streamline your daily routine? Crafting a capsule wardrobe filled with timeless pieces you’ll gladly wear over and over again. Brands like Loulou Studio are really making it easy by doing all the work and providing a reliable selection of neutral heroes. Similarly, Toteme has earned a spot on our list of must-have closet essentials, thanks to the label’s ability to skip trends and hyper-focus on timeless uniform-worthy designs. On the affordable side of the spectrum, look to labels like Everlane and Cos for everyday dressing at a fraction of the price. Ahead, we’ve gathered more tried-and-true pieces from various brands, so that you can easily craft your dream capsule wardrobe.
