Get Early AccessYour closet is full and you still have nothing to wear. That contradiction is not about needing more clothes. It is about owning too many wrong ones. Impulse buys that looked great in the store but never get worn. Sentimental pieces from 2015 that no longer fit your life. Duplicates you forgot you had because they are buried under everything else.
It coaches you through a complete wardrobe declutter. Describe your [CLOSET_STATE], your [LIFESTYLE], and your [STYLE_GOAL]. The AI walks you through a systematic process for evaluating every item with specific questions to ask about each piece. It helps you build a keep, donate, sell, and toss system, then organizes what remains into a functional wardrobe.
The emotional attachment framework is what makes this different from "just get rid of stuff" advice. It gives you permission structures for letting go of clothes tied to memories, past body sizes, or money spent. Open it in the Dock Editor and start clearing your closet. Once you have decluttered, the capsule wardrobe builder helps you fill gaps with versatile pieces that all work together.
Paste this template into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or the Dock Editor to get started.
Choose [CLOSET_STATE] honestly. The AI calibrates the process for your starting point. "Overflowing" gets a more aggressive purge strategy than "just needs editing."
Select [LIFESTYLE] and describe [STYLE_GOAL]. Your wardrobe should match the life you actually live, not the life you imagine. If you work from home 5 days a week, you do not need 15 business suits.
Choose [FRUSTRATION] because it reveals the root cause. "Nothing to wear despite full closet" means poor versatility. "Stuck in a style rut" means you need to let go of safe but boring pieces.
The AI gives you specific questions for each item. Go through your closet section by section, answering honestly for each piece. Sort into keep, donate, sell, and toss piles as you go.
New job, new city, weight change, or post-breakup? Set [CLOSET_STATE] to "starting fresh after life change" and get a process that builds a wardrobe for who you are now, not who you were.
Set [FRUSTRATION] to sentimental items. The AI provides a framework for honoring memories without keeping every concert t-shirt from college. It suggests alternatives like photos or a memory box.
Set [FRUSTRATION] to impulsive purchases. Along with the declutter process, you get strategies for preventing future impulse buys and a framework for evaluating new purchases before they enter your closet.
Run it at the start of each season. Edit your wardrobe as weather changes, removing pieces that did not earn their spot last season and identifying gaps before you shop.
