Here are a few statistics about clothes closets so that you can decide the answer to “Is My Bedroom Closet Typical”. See how you compare to others.
Clothing Value
A 2015 Glamour.com article implies that about half of shoppers responded to a survey saying that the value of everything in their bedroom closet was between $1000 – $5000. The article goes on to say that shirts and shoes claim the most space. How does that compare to you? If you wear a lot of designer clothing or have to dress professionally for your job every day, you are probably closest to the $5000 mark or above. It makes sense that shirts and shoes take up the most space. We usually coordinate several different shirts with a single pair of pants or skirt. The shoe category combines all types of shoes, from casual to boots to dressy.
Number of Items
Dailymail.co.uk posted a 2016 article that says the average American woman has 103 clothing items in her bedroom closet. How does that compare to you? Have you ever taken a few moments to count how many items are in your closet? How many items on hangers do you have? How many items do you fold and stack, and how many are in storage for the off-season?
Organized Bedroom Closet
57% of women say that having an organized bedroom closet would make it easier and faster to find things. Is that the case for you? It may be time to get organized!
