His & Her wardrobe & organization tips

What Principles Should be Followed While Designing the Internal Layout of a His and Her Wardrobe?

• The wardrobes for a man and a woman should be tailor-made with the accurate dimensions of their largest or longest clothing. This is done to have a benchmark on the standard dimensions of wardrobe.
• One must measure the maximum length of the clothes that they wish to hang (especially when it comes to women’s apparel that can tend to be long - such as saris, dresses or gowns) and then decide the length of the vertical or the hanger sections of the his and hers wardrobe.
• A cool way to share a common wardrobe is to have subtly demarcated zones in the his and hers wardrobe, with maybe an internal partition or even with sectional drawers between both the zones. This would help in designing the wardrobe for maximum efficiency.
• A great tip would be to also sort your drawers according to the steps you take for getting dressed.
• Always plan some space between the wardrobes for a calm divide in the his and hers sections of the wardrobe and less elbow-bumping.

What are the Basic Measurements of a His and Hers Closet?

The most obvious answer is that the internal layout of a his and hers closet or his and hers walk in closet should have dimensions that at least make all the clothing and accessories easily accessible and visible. Let’s get into granular detail on these.

His Wardrobe

• The bare minimum vertical height required for his wardrobe for hanging formal shirts and trousers is at least 40 inches.

• You can always introduce a shallow pull-out drawer or a tray with inserts (i.e. square dividers) in his wardrobe, for keeping his ties, belts, cufflinks, sunglasses, watches or even his socks well-organized. This sort of an arrangement will enable him to have a full view of all the contents of the drawer.

Her Wardrobe

• The vertical clearance required for hanging women’s clothing like gowns, kurtas or long dresses usually ranges from 66 to 72 inches. You should always use velvet-covered (i.e. velvety) hangers for her dresses and saris in her wardrobe. This should also be the case for her silks and fine fabric pieces, such that they won’t slip or wrinkle.
  

• It is our strictest recommendation not to store her footwear in open shelves within the wardrobe. Unlike the western nations, in India, any type of footwear is highly prone to trapping a lot of dust and bacteria from the outdoors. Keep her shoes in a separate cabinet or dedicate a lower drawer for her shoes.
  
  
• While undertaking his and her wardrobe design, definitely create a separate compartment for her handbags and purses. Make sure that these handbags are always stored in an upright position. In order to determine the height of the shelf you’d use for storing her handbags, measure the maximum height of the largest handbag she possesses.
