| Rule | Why |
|---|---|
| Group by category, then color | Find anything in seconds |
| Use slim velvet hangers | Save 50% space vs wire hangers |
| Seasonal rotation | Only current-season items visible |
| One in, one out | Prevents closet overflow |
| Hanger test | Turn all hangers backward — after 6 months, donate unworn items |
Turn all your hangers backward (facing you instead of away). When you wear something and return it, hang it forward normally. After 6 months, anything still backward hasn't been worn — consider donating it.
