Yee Capsule

The Yee capsule is an example of a capsule wardrobe we created for our client Kevin Yee; a 62 year-old graphic designer from Sacramento with a sharp eye and great style. 

When I first met with Kevin on zoom - from his home in Sacramento - I could immediately tell: 1) he is an expressive dresser with a unique sense of style 2) he has an athletic physique (especially for his age - can you believe he’s 62?!) and 3) he has a keen eye for design and is particular about the details of his garments including fabric, cut, and drape. 

One of the first thing’s Kevin mentioned on our call was that he has two special events coming up this Spring/Summer; a niece and a nephew each getting married in outdoor venues. And while Kevin already has a closet full of designer clothing (like Tom Ford suits) he finds the slim off-the-rack fit doesn’t work well for his body (since he’s been putting on some muscle in the gym) and the dark muted colors don’t showcase his creative sense of style or colorful personality.

So, right away I knew his capsule was going to include two lightweight suits with unique colors, textures, and/or patterns. From there, it was simply a matter of adding options that he can pair with both suits (and suit separates) to get the most outfit options out of them.
