Creating a Capsule Wardrobe: Five Silk Essentials from LILYSILK’s Fall 2022 Collection

When it comes to practicing conscious fashion, a capsule wardrobe is a great way to invest in quality pieces, easily style looks and save time getting dressed.

But what exactly is a capsule wardrobe? A capsule wardrobe is a collection of essential clothing pieces that can be mixed and matched to create multiple looks. The key to a successful capsule wardrobe is to choose timeless, versatile pieces that can be dressed up or down depending on occasion, and pair well with a variety of items in your wardrobe.

The Perfect Fall Layering Piece: Meet the ‘Shacket’

Our Myrtus Jacket blends the classic style of military-inspired fashion (take note of the functional pockets and a buckled belt at the waist) with the tailored softness of silk charmeuse.
