Capsule Wardrobe: How Many Outfits Can You Make Out of 12 Items?

Building a Capsule Wardrobe for Women

The answer lies in your creativity.

I found 12 classic pieces of clothing I felt would make a great start to creating business capsule wardrobe. I also kept a color theme of just three colors: red, white, and black (okay, the jeans are blue!) for the women’s capsule. Building your base wardrobe around classic pieces and a color theme makes it easy for you to shop and also mix and match. I always say start with three colors first when building your wardrobe. Then as you advance, you can add in more pattern and a few other colors. So let’s see this in action now!

12 Key Pieces for Capsule Wardrobe

I know you are on the edge of your seat waiting to find out just how many outfits you can make out of these 12 items! Is the answer 30? Is the answer 60? Warning! Math problem alert! I placed a number to the right of each section of the total number of outfits created for that section. Below you will see the variations I created. I did add in a belt for fun. So just think of how these basic outfits can look even better by adding accessories such as jewelry, scarves, hats, handbags, and shoes!

So here is the final answer of how many outfits you can make out of just 12 pieces: 91 outfits!
