How to Plan a Historical Capsule Wardrobe

A historical capsule wardrobe might truly be an answer to making historical fashion more convenient for everyday wear. This video focuses upon how to plan your own historical capsule wardrobe. While I myself do not have a historical capsule wardrobe (yet), I do have over two years of experience wearing historical clothing daily, so these were the tips I could devise to get started with making your very own.

Because I primarily only wear 18th and 19th century fashion, I do use many examples from these periods, however, these tips could very well be applied to any era of dress, whether that be more masculine or feminine fashion. A more historybounding capsule wardrobe plan could also be created using these pointers.
