Comments on: How To Simplify Your Closet With A Minimalist Wardrobe https://www.thegoodtrade.com/features/how-to-build-a-minimalist-wardrobe/ Thu, 05 Jun 2025 21:26:06 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.3 By: Anonymous User https://www.thegoodtrade.com/features/how-to-build-a-minimalist-wardrobe/#comment-10439 Thu, 05 Jun 2025 21:26:06 +0000 https://www.thegoodtrade.com/how-to-build-a-minimalist-wardrobe/#comment-10439 Absolutely loved this article! The step-by-step approach makes the idea of a minimalist wardrobe feel so much more approachable and less overwhelming. I really resonated with the reminder that it’s a journey, not a race—giving ourselves grace is so important when making these kinds of changes.
One thing that’s helped me stick to my minimalist goals is investing in a few high-quality basics that I truly love and wear all the time. I’ve found some great pieces from Urthwear—their organic, toxin-free materials and timeless designs make it so easy to build a wardrobe that’s both sustainable and versatile. It’s amazing how much more I appreciate each item now that I’m focused on quality over quantity!
Thanks for such a thoughtful and encouraging read. Excited to keep simplifying and curating with intention!

Over the years that got most donated as I lost almost half my weight. Now that I’m on my own most of my clothes no longer fit yet again and I am purchasing what I want for the first time as an adult and focusing on comfort and color

Thanks for reading, Lupe! We all have to start somewhere, and I’m consistently having to check-in with my closet, donate a few items, and remind myself of my minimalist wardrobe goals. It’s a journey. xx

Hi Amis – thanks for sharing! I recommend starting here for sustainable clothing brands:

And so many links to follow up on. There goes my day! hah! I took a deep dive into finding what clothes best complement my rectangular body. I am only keeping or adding clothes that truly look good on me. I also chose a color scheme and am only buying clothes within these colors: black, navy, denim, olive drab, khaki, white, red, and peach. I’m curious to see how I’ll feel about this in a year or two. Perhaps you could compile all your recommendations of vendors of sustainable clothing?

I truly believe this also applies to all other aspects of our life and especially within our interior spaces. The impact of having a minimalist aesthetic on life will and does make you feel clearer with overwhelming positive benefits on many levels.
Kayti Christian love your work 🙂

Thanks
