How to Use Nuuly to Build a Capsule Wardrobe

Want to build a capsule wardrobe but not sure where to start? Wondering why the “perfect” white tee is $277? Renting is a great tool for paring down your closest to a few versatile pieces that you can wear again and again—a.k.a. a capsule wardrobe.

Here are some ways Nuuly can help you on your capsule wardrobe journey:


  • Use the 333 method. See how many looks you can create w/ 3 tops , 3 bottoms and 3 pairs of shoes. Coincidentally, 3+3=6, which is the number of items in a Nuuly (you’re on your own for the shoes)

  • Rent a capsule closet for travel. Fill your suitcase w/ clothes from Nuuly + don’t worry about storing them when you get back

  • Try out essentials to make sure they’re really essential . For instance, dedicate one Nuuly to finding your new favorite pair of jeans . Sit squat stand lunge LIVE!

  • Already have the basics? Use Nuuly to layer in trends + statement pieces. Don’t worry, if you don’t like it in a month, your capsule is still pristine

  • Make informed (+ budget friendly) purchases. Love something you rented + want to add to your capsule wardrobe? Buy it at a discount. Subscribers can also purchase from The Thrift Shop , where everything is at least 65% off + ships free in your next Nuuly
