The sun shining in the azure blue sky, the thermometer rising and leaving a warm veil on the skin, the sound of the waves mixed with the sound of cicadas… Summer vacations are coming, and with them summer getaways in postcard-like settings<\/strong>. With such beautiful landscapes at our fingertips, it’s no longer the mythological or Italian boot landscapes that make us dream, but those of our not-so-distant south. Dare to leave at a moment’s notice, from 3 days to 3 weeks, with just a carry-on bag<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discover all our tips for creating your capsule collection<\/strong>, which will dress you in the creeks<\/strong> from dawn to dusk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is a capsule collection?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You may have already heard the term capsule collection<\/strong>? This concept, specific to fashion and developed by many brands at some point in their history, now extends to many other fields. To the point of finding capsule collections of champagne… But, let’s get back to the point and its definition. A capsule collection is the creation of a line of clothing and accessories<\/strong>, with only a small number of pieces<\/strong>. These collections are often co-created in limited series between an artist or personality and a brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Minimalism in the wardrobe<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Very present in the fashion world since the 2000s, this idea of a capsule collection has also made its way into our wardrobes. Approaching a minimalist style<\/strong>, by choosing only a few pieces that can be combined into multiple looks<\/strong>, this fashion trend aligns with the current desire to consume less<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We stop accumulating<\/strong> 15 similar tops and 20 jeans, half of which have never had the chance to be worn. The same goes for those shoes that were only worn once at Baptiste and L\u00e9a’s wedding, and the tons of jewelry that rival the stocks of the Man\u00e8ge \u00e0 Bijoux. We choose timeless pieces<\/strong> that enhance us, and if possible, we prioritize brands with responsible practices. And with these few pieces, we have plenty of outfits, and goodbye to the hours spent not knowing which pieces to wear from the mountain that is our wardrobe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can therefore have a capsule collection per season<\/strong>, which takes over from each other throughout the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to pack your suitcase in record time?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The concept of a capsule collection is also highly relevant for another context: vacations<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indeed, we all know the ordeal of packing our suitcase to go on vacation<\/strong>… At first, we say to ourselves, “Just a few pieces will be enough.” We know very well that every year we bring way too much, and in the end, we spend our time in flip-flops and a swimsuit…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And then, we remember that cute little crochet cardigan<\/a>, which would be perfect for a dinner at the restaurant, even if we know it will stay under our arm… Oh! And that little straw beach bag<\/a>! Even though we can’t fit our phone in it, it would still look great in a photo with our bohemian dress<\/a>, well, one of the 5 we brought!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, you can’t hide anything from us, we know exactly how suitcase preparations go… But what if a capsule collection could be the solution to being trendy this summer<\/strong>, all with just a small suitcase? By choosing only a few pieces, you’ll have trendy outfits ready to wear, and with a non-negotiable space-saving benefit<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
