51 of the Best Stores to Shop When Building a Minimalist Wardrobe

There’s a confused idea sometimes that a minimalist wardrobe is boring, inconspicuous, and difficult to style in an individual way.

But that’s so far from the truth. 

With a minimalist wardrobe you play with fabrics and timeless colours, you mix elegant with masculine, luxury with casual, you play with contrasting styles, and you add accessories that bring even more character to an outfit. 

And a minimalist wardrobe also shares your personal style, a part of your personality, exactly as you’d like it: subtle, but confident.

A minimalist wardrobe does not mean a wardrobe filled with nothing but boring basics.

It means a wardrobe of clothes that rise above trends, that can be styled with many other pieces you have, can be dressed up and down, and that remain relevant for years.

My last blog provided steps on how to go about a closet clean out when preparing to create a minimalist capsule wardrobe, plus the basics to include. 

This follow-up is to share the best brands and stores offering the styles you’ll need and want to continue building this wardrobe. 

I’ve shared stores from around the world, including affordable and luxury, new and pre-loved. 

All so good! 

Unfortunately there aren’t yet enough sustainable brands to meet all of our needs and styles, so I've shared some here that are still ranking at below average standards.

However, one of the benefits of a minimalist wardrobe (and a capsule wardrobe) is that you’re buying pieces that won’t date and can remain relevant in your wardrobe for years, or be passed on for someone else to enjoy through pre-loved fashion.


Keep scrolling to find the minimalist clothing brands and stores that most suit you and your lifestyle, as well as support the minimalist wardrobe you’re creating.
