Closet Confessions: How To Make Your Wardrobe Wearable | Fashion Haul | Trinny

- How many of us shy away from amazing things in our wardrobes because of one little flaw? For today’s Closet Confessions, I’m reassessing a few pieces that I’d almost written off. The key is to look for the potential of a piece of clothing - if you could change the sleeve or the length or the silhouette, would it then be exactly what you want it to be? If so, it might be worth taking it to a tailor and giving it a chance to become part of your regular wardrobe rotation. Sometimes, transforming an outfit doesn’t require so much as a stitch - all you have to do is find the right accessories, and you’ll suddenly see it in a whole new light. Take a look in your wardrobe this weekend and see which pieces might deserve a second chance…
Take a whistle-stop tour through Trinny Woodall’s (fifteen) wardrobes with Closet Confessions. In each episode, Trinny deep-dives into a particular section of her closet, mixing high street, vintage, designer and everything in between. This is everything you’ve ever wanted to know about fashion and styling, from the expert herself.

That final metallic dress-STUNNING-and how sensational it would be as separates!
Yep
Keep the column dress long please it looks elegant
YES DEFINATELY.
The hidden belt holes in the gold column dress are genius. I’m torn about the ideal length though. I think I prefer longer cos it has more of a statuesque feel to it, which was the original intention. But I’d definitely convert the last dress into a skirt & top.
That olive green/khaki dress looks STUNNING on you, Trinny! That color is gorgeous on you
Love the column dress long; it's so cool but also elegant 👌
My personal opinion is to leave the column dress full-length. It is stunning, and such an unusual piece. As for the floral dress, I wouldn't add a sleeve. The shape is perfect as it is.
I feel like Trinny's closet is the adult version of a barbie dream house closet! I just wanna go in there and try everything on lol
The metallic dress as separates is definitely the way to go. I'm definitely going to try flipping the blouse method for some drama. Thanks, Trinny. It's a great video, great ideas.
That blue pant suit with the backwards blouse is ingenious! I could never pull it off but it looks incredible on you! ❤
Cut the last dress and make it a skirt. Love it with boots and a black turtleneck.
Wonderful uplifting video, as always. Loved how when you reversed the belt to pink, the outfit became less serious and more playful.
I was screaming at the screen when you were doing the funky version of the green halter dress, "GRAB THE NEON YELLOW BIB NECKLACE!"
I tuck in all my tops, or wear cropped, which just cover a skirt waistband (because I’m short). I felt frumpy all throughout the long-top-worn-out period, so I tried tucking about five years ago, what an improvement. I’m middle-aged, normal weight, not skinny, and have a slightly rounded tummy, but that’s nothing compared to the loss of proportion I get from not showing any shape. That still-popular tunic-over-leggings look among women my age is the worst and has been out of style since the 90s. Tuck those tops in, then don’t look down, look in the mirror instead.
Would love to see how the skirt and top turn out from the last dress!
Love the vintage dog show dress. Please keep the length!
Absolutely loved this closet confessions ♥️
Could you wear the khaki dress back to front as it seems to be cut higher in the back? The metallic dress in a two piece would be stunning!
This styling session was amazing! I learned so much. Thanks Trinny ❤
Absolutely loved this episode - perfect start to my Saturday ❤ I predict that the floral dress hemmed to the right length with the side ribbon detail added will be perfection. No belt needed. Can’t really make a wrong decision on the column dress hem, so beautiful at both lengths.
I love taking old clothes to the tailor, giving them new life, and creating a piece that is unique and fits just the way you want it! So fun!
Loved that gorgeous green/khaki dress, the way it draped at the back and yes! The final dress as a skirt - do it :-)
The 70s print dress is beautiful as it is. Don't mess with it except to make it fit at the sides! If you shorten it you will ruin the pattern repeat at the front which gives it so much.
Ditto..🤓
Tbh, I think the vintage floral is wearing you.. so don't change it just pass it on. But great video thanks, I'm going to chop the frumpy sleeves off a cos dress I have.
Triny you always have great ideas and know exactly how to change things up for the better or just to give a dress more character and wear it in a different way. Thanks for showing us this video.
Te floral dress with big prints is just perfect. Just change the shoes.
Slightly shorten that gorgeous gold column dress. Wow!
I think the column dress looks better shorter, more modern and practical
Yes make the gold dress a skirt and halter! Then show us! Great idea will look fabulous
The dress from the dog show is pretty, but I would suggest throwing a bright sweater/ jumper over top.
Long time fan, first time comment...that 70s dress is PERFECT as is! It is absolutely one of my favorite pieces I've ever seen you in and I would love to have in my own wardrobe. I would be a shame and a sin to change a thing IMHO. My boyfriend looked up and agreed with me completely by the way...
It's gorgeous but she says it's too tight and she can't breathe so if she cuts some off the bottom then she will be able to add a column to the side seams and it will be wearable
I like this sort of vid - it provokes thoughts re changing 'beloved unworns'. 👏
The last dress is my fave ❤
I love you, Trinny! Tanks for all!!!
I would make the column dress shorter Trinny and wear it more frequently and flexibly, love the belt trick hiding it from back xx thanks always, love your videos and advice xxx
I’d love to see what bags you’d wear with all those khaki dress outfits!
Thanks for the inspiring ideas on changing your clothes.
Todays closet confession belt hole hack is genius I wear so many kaftans never thought of that from the front only and adding the shoulder pad
Love all your closet confessions!! And you are SO inspiring that just this past week, I cut a round neck cami straight across from armpit to armpit and created a Dickie out of it. It was always a perfect layer piece for underneath sweaters (it peeks out at the neckline perfectly!) but it got too tight around my bust line. Now I have this pink colour at my neckline while being comfortable at the same time. I would never have done anything like that before watching you play with all your clothes. Now, what else can I get scissor happy with 😂!! (PS: I would cut the dresses to that perfect ankle length…it suits you so well.!
Fab looks T - particularly loved all you did with the Kaki dress.
.....on column dress.....Slit up side to make it wearable and shorter....Love the belt idea...
Loved this one. So happy to see you give your clothes new life. I have some made of glorious material that I would like to reimagine
Great vid! Re: the column dress towards the beginning, I think shortening it would make it look better and therefore more wearable 👍
totally agree

The cream column dress looks BEAUTIFUL on you. It is a tad long though, and could maybe be taken up a notch or two and still maintain that column look. 💕
Make the column dress ankle length
Trinny could you talk about your diet. I can't get over your figure at 59. Could you maybe chat about food you avoid and food you eat. Do you fast etc. I'm guessing every one of your followers would love to know.
Keep the length in the column....so graceful and sweeping with ankles hidden 🤓
This may be the first time I’m not a fan of a certain look, which was the blue shirt.😅 but the rest, I love! Especially that green dress with the chunky necklace!
I like the column dress shorter.
Thanks Trinny...I will visit my wardrobe 🤓 (perhaps keep the column dress long for the odd invitation to the Ball..)
I like the khaki dress best with the matching belt, green sandals and the first necklace you tried on initially with it. I love the flowered dress without a belt and would wear with your white plateform sneakers.
Wow the column dress!! 😍 It is stunning on you! 🤩....and the green dress is beautiful!! ... I've just bought a dress in the same green and you've given me ideas for it! ❤
Love love love that blue twist trick🎉 ooooh make the gold one a halter dress (just tie a ribbon at the back of the neck to hold the straps) it is a good ankle moment - love that!
Column dress I would definitely shorten and possibly the sleeves also. The metallic dress I would separate into top and skirt to have more use from. The khaki dress I would wear hot pink.
💛 Super Sunny Co-Ord 💛
😉 Liked the rock-n-roll attitude of the side half tuck w/the pleated skirt. Otherwise, I would knot (& tuck it inside) if you want a cropped look.
😊Liked the length of the bold vintage pink & red floral masterpiece as well as the silhouette. 🤔Would have Azucena color block a slim, long "V"insert on each side of the bodice. That change could definitely fit in w/the dress & era〰️esp. since the pattern doesn't match at the seams anyway. In fact, a solid bright pink section would only make it all the more striking & slimming.
That summery khaki green dress is very versatile. 💗Loved the pink & green belt. 😍This shade of green does have a lot of color companions to change it up. I enjoy pairing it w/ black🖤 or navy⚓️ too.
Edit: ✂️ The last dress definitely needs to be split into 2 pcs.

Love the yellow outfit Trinny x
Love the metalic dress cut up , and the other dress is beautiful as a column ❤
All gorgeous items. That column dress with the gold belt 🤩 I like both lengths, as it is, or shorter (obviously will be more wearable).
Loved this video!! Very inspirational!!
I want to know what the brown nude padded shoulder tank is called and where can I get one??
Love all the ideas!
You have magical ideas! So inspiring!😍
Soooo pretty in yellow!
....Crop the yellow top....Ab's look great....very chic...
I love the way Trinny adds belts . However, when I try the same trick because I am large chested and short waisted my boobs meet with the top of the belt and my waist disappears! Not a good look
Didn’t realise how expensive some simple alterations are ! Might learn the sewing machine 👍🏼
Love youre advice❤you have helped me find my confidence again..and tuck in!!!!😂❤❤❤❤❤
You could add shirring to the sides of the gold column dress ( maybe with a drawstring on the inside), so you wouldn't lose the option of wearing it long ;)
Another great one! The khaki dress is a miracle!
Great video! Was expecting neon yellow with the khaki dress 😅
Trinny you look gorge in everything. ❤
Love the yellow!
Shorten the column, great inspiration here 👏🏼
Maybe consider putting a draw string in the column dress and then you can pull it and get a ruched shorter moment but still have the drama of the full length when you want!
Fantastic inspiration as usual… more inspo for Khaki… I love it & wear it a lot, I find it looks terrific with turquoise and also with certain shades of lavender/ Lilacs & I looove mixing metals!😛🤪😍🙌🏼🫶🏽❤️🙋🏻♀️
love what you did to the long gold column dress. i think you would get more wear out of it if it was shorter. i guess it depends if need more outfits that are dressy, or more day time wear really? You look fabulous either way.
Luved this episode, amazing pieces! I think it would be sad to cut the column dress as sooo hard to find amazing dateless floor dusting gowns ! I was waiting for neon yellow or any neon to pair with the khaki….maybe 🤔. Cut the last dress for sure would look so amazing as separates and way more versatile! Great episode ❤
Was just thinking that neon necklace in Trinny's clear perspex drawers would go perfect with the khaki dress - was sad when she added the metallic one instead, lol!
Just fabulous as always :)
This was brilliant as always 😊😊😊😊
Love love the flowers dress beautiful
Fascinating!
I think the final metallic dress is lovely and would be fab as a separate skirt and top although I think the top shouldn’t be changed to halter neck but just worn over a black polo neck like a piece of armour ☺️Hx
I love this idea also!
Good !!!🤓
Such creative ideas! I urgently need to know what bra top you are wearing with the shoulder pads?
This is awesome! I’m going to get in my closet and see what’s up!
That colourful dress could use the large goldbelt
How gorgeous the last dress was…🎼
Great video.🤩
Very clever use of accessories
Ugh Trinny you are so gorgeous its obscene! 😍😍😍
Love you Trinny ❤❤❤❤
Great inspo I will shop my closet😉🌷
For the column dress add a button and tie to the sides so it can be rushed up from the inside. Like what’s on shirt sleeves to turn them into 3/4 length. So it’s adjustable.
Always 💕
Keep that column and make the slit higher.
💯% Yes! Love the elegant long line of the 💫 creamy & gold column dress. It's got a classic 1930s
✨️ Old Hollywood ✨️ vibe.
🤔Although it could be shortened slightly🤏, so it's not dragging. That would give her more shoe options too.
✂️Also, definitely elongate that split ↕️. 😬It's so strange at current spot. It would be a subtle sexy to see a peek-a-boo glimpse of leg as she strides along or strikes a pose.

Oh that last dress!!! I wish you would wear it😁 If you separate it you can bring them back together with a bare midriff😁😁😁
Shorter on the gold… lovely ❤
Frankly Trinny you'd look good in a bin bag. Must be nice!! X you are such a lovely person, always liked you. My daughter and I watched some of the old WNTW last night.... Absolutely blooming hilarious, so unPC nowadays and all the better for it thankyou 🥰
I would not shorten the yellow t shirt-bc then that is the only way you can wear it in the future-unless you can buy a second one. They match perfectly-in the future you may not be comfortable wearing a tummy revealing top. Right now- you look AB-solutely fabulous! xo
Whatever you wear is wonderful
7:00 - gold and white column needs to be hemmed at the ankle and slit on both side to the mid hip so you also wear pants underneath. My suggestion
Love this video
Great ideas thanks you so much
Omg. Mari from San Antonio Texas. I discovered you not to long ago and absolutely love your ideas. And yes as a 60 yr old woman I'm always hiding my belly
But your right....only I see my self from the top up. And others straight forward. I'm going to take your advice. Thx
I liked the 70s dress best on Trinny; perfect shape and length and I adore the bold flowers. I hope she won't alter the dress; that would be such a shame! I liked the blue co-ord, but none of the other outfits; too much work to make some of the outfits work. Sometimes you just have to let clothes go and say bye bye to them. 😅
Probably...but I like the fact Trin showed us of maybe smaller closets some ideas for reimagining pieces.
