Minimal Wardrobe (Part 3 of 3)

After finally putting my ideal minimal wardrobe together, I was curious to find out how it aligned with my actual wardrobe.

It has taken me months to get to a point where I can see what my minimal wardrobe would look like. Through that time, I thought colour, function, style, and silhouette.

After I started thinking about my functional wardrobe, I came across the concept of a minimalism in relation to clothing. Pinterest searches returned mostly black and white outfits (which looked a bit boring to me) but also the concepts of the Parisian Closet or French Wardrobe, and Capsule Wardrobe. 

The minimal concept, I came to understand, didn't mean just owning less stuff. In fact, some contemporary takes on minimalism advocate it's about having less stuff you don't need (examples here and here).

In that context, one of the ways it can be used is to guide the choice of items. For instance, using the same colour palette when making a new purchase, thus creating consistency across the wardrobe and ensuring the new piece works with what’s already in there.

There also seemed to be instances where the minimal concept was used to justify buying a bunch of new stuff every season (a capsule for each season, for instance). This bit aside, I was curious - What would my minimal wardrobe look like? and How minimal would it go?
