Stylist Artem Chizhov from the CDEK.Shopping service has named the essential clothing items required in a wardrobe, in comments provided to Lenta.ru.
Chizhov explained that conscious consumption has returned to replace fast fashion. While trends previously changed almost every month, more brands now focus on durable clothing with neutral designs. He noted that this capsule approach uses a few items that easily combine with each other for work, leisure, and travel.

The stylist stated that a jacket in black, dark blue, gray, or beige is the primary item needed in a wardrobe. He said it can be worn with jeans, dresses, skirts, or classic trousers. Chizhov also recommended a white or light blue shirt, alongside a T-shirt made of thick cotton in white, milky, black, or gray.
Essential clothing items and fit
In addition, Chizhov recommended classic trousers and properly fitting jeans. He specified that baggy jeans serve as a universal option because they fit most body shapes well. He explained that baggy jeans add volume to the lower body and visually reduce the shoulders to balance proportions.
To complete the selection, the stylist highlighted knitted jumpers, trench coats, straight-cut wool coats, simple jackets, and small neutral bags without logos. Separately, observers for the Who What Wear portal listed the main trends for the upcoming autumn in July.
