Abstract

This research paper excavates the factors which play a vital role in the organizational planning of the wardrobe. There are a few problems that are faced by individuals every day when it comes to managing their wardrobe. Some have difficulty in styling themselves while some people waste ample amounts of time in identifying outfits and selecting the best for a particular occasion. These problems may lead to frustration or might be the reason why people end up being late for occasions. This study broadly examines the difficulties that are faced by the individuals. This study also suggests an idea to reduce the time spent on the wardrobe and to maximize each individual wardrobe arrangement and styling potential. It aims at introducing some popular wardrobe management apps such as stylebook, purple outfit planner, Closet+ and Stylicious which can develop more effective relationship between people and their wardrobes. These apps can help to construct and deconstruct their clothing, follow new trends and get suggestions from experts on various issues. The study found that 53% of respondents are able to organize their wardrobe, but they would like it to be more detailed and adequate. It is also found that the individuals are not able to keep track of outfits which they are wearing. The paper finds that the majority of people are not aware of any existing wardrobe management apps, but it is also found that Stylebook is the most popular choice for the people who are aware of these apps.
