I just counted all my dresses…

[sunlightdancing]

And I have almost 60! I knew I had a lot but I’m still shocked at the total.

That does include some dresses which may only get worn once every couple of years (wedding guest / ballgown / cocktail / funeral attendee type dresses) but most are more everyday or work type dresses which tend to be worn more frequently.

I’ve just gone through them all with the aim of being totally ruthless and sending any I no longer like to the charity shop. At the end of this process I’ve managed to get rid of a grand total of…one dress 🤦‍♀️

In my defence, I think almost half of them are second hand and some are over ten years old, but I still like them and they still fit so it seems silly to get rid of them.

AND I only have two pairs of jeans and no other trousers except sports leggings. I guess I’m just a dress person.

How many dresses do you own? Please tell me I’m not the only one??

I have 3 dresses, 5 pairs of jeans and two pairs of trousers. (One funeral one casual). I can’t imagine owning so many clothes, it must be like living in a shop! You can’t ever say you don’t have a thing to wear.

That sounds lovely! Keep them all!
I'm definitely not in your position but would love to be, and why on earth would you throw away good clothes that still fit!
They'll all get their turn eventually.

How big is your wardrobe???

I belong to a FB group and a lady there has about 1200.

3
one that I keep to wear as a wedding guest (and is probably in a bundle on the wardrobe floor)
A denim pinafore from Toast and a denim dress also from Toast which I haven’t worn for years.

I've got five

I’ve not counted, but I’d say maybe 25.
some haven’t been worn for a long time and I should get rid of them….

Actually I would like to be the sort of person to slip on a dress and be good to go but my figure isn’t the best and since lockdown have given up wearing proper bra’s so prefer something loose topside

I think I’m not far behind you.

I have only one pair of jeans and maybe 4 pairs of trousers which I rarely wear. I must also be a dress person 😬

I’ve got about 30, most of them are summer and I do wear them if it’s warm enough. I put a load on vinted earlier this year and have sold a few. I have a particular penchant for green dresses, I think I had 8 and I had to thin them down to 4. I feel slimmer and better dressed in a dress.

I always wear dresses to work and also on most sunny days so I'm orob not too far off a similar number. I'll count the ones in my wardrobe but I also have more packed away for the sunshine that one day might appear.

None - I don't like dresses, I don't feel comfortable.

Last dress I wore was my wedding dress almost 30 years ago !

If you wear them all it does not make sense to get rid of them.

I recently sorted through my wardrobe, I have:

5 summer dresses
7 work dresses
3 wedding guest type dresses
3 evening/cocktail dresses

So 18 in total but..

I also have skirts (15 or so), blouses (10ish), t shirts (10..), trousers (8), jeans (8)...

Maybe I have too many clothes!

Not that many, but lots. Wardrobe needs a winter -to-summer refresh so will find out then.

I’m not far behind you either! I’m definitely a dress person as have hourglass figure so trousers are really hard to find!

If you wear and enjoy all your dresses then I wouldn’t worry about getting rid of any just for the sake of it. 😊

🙋‍♀️ sounds just like my wardrobe right down to most things being second hand or a bit elderly. I don’t wear trousers except for occasionally leggings paired with a shorter dress or jeans when it’s cold on the school run.

I love dresses! They’re so versatile! No need to coordinate except with a cardigan when it’s cold and most look good with sandals or trainers when it’s warm or tights and boots when it’s cold.

I have been saying for a while that I need a big clear out, but most likely it’ll be about 4 frocks that make their way to the charity shop where I’ll probably buy 5 anyway.

I would say I have about 50 including sun dresses.

Probably about 30. I like dresses. I tend to turn out two to three every year. They wear out. Probably 8-10 winters, 8-10 summers, half a dozen evening/super smart ones and half a dozen casual/holiday dresses.

Dressers-At a guess 40-50.
Several years ago dd counted my dresses and declared I had 40. Since then I’ve gotten rid of some and bought some.
My go to is a dress. I wear them for work and to go out in.
I also have a lot of skirts- about 10.
Jeans ( of which I only wear the same pair)-4.
Trousers-6. I used to have a lot more as my go to for work was a pair of smart trousers. However that was when I was a lot thinner. Now I’m fatter I find dressers more comfortable.
I also have gym wear so I’d say about 5 pairs of leggings that fit.
Plus one pair of joggers which I wear for all slobbing about jobs.
A few pairs of shorts for hot summer days too.

I'd say I have close to 50 if I include occasion dresses, casual dresses and work dresses.
I don't wear jeans. I either dress very casually in sweatshirts and joggers or wear a dress.

Oh my goodness I think I have about 200

I love a dress, I probably have 30-40.

I only have a few pairs of trousers and jeans.

Ooh interesting! I have no idea what an appropriate amount of clothing is! I probably have around 20 dresses (including my wedding dress and occasion wear) although I could definitely thin the herd a bit as I reconcile myself to my new middle age figure… I tend to wear trousers/jeans more day to day and probably have a similar number but they get much more use.

Don't know. Probably more than 60. I only wear dresses, occasionally skirts. I don't own jeans or trousers.

I say if you’ve got the space for them and love them then keep them!

I don’t have loads of clothes but would buy more if I had space and could lose some weight.

I never wore a dress until a few years ago but I have several now. About 3 that are work type ones and maybe 4 summery ones.
