How to Unleash Your Style: The Ultimate Guide to Custom-Made Dressing Room Designs

 If you love Carrie Bradshaw and are envious of her glamorous dressing room, there's good news: You don't need a huge house to create a custom made dressing room  one of your own. Even a spare bedroom can be transformed with the help of smart storage solutions and a few design tricks. Here are a few Carrie-worthy ideas to get you started.



 Getting dressed

If your space is small, consider hanging a see-through chair like this Lucite beauty from House Beautiful to add light and airiness to the space. The transparent finish also helps to bounce around any natural light coming in from the window. And it's a great place to sit while putting on makeup or getting dressed before going out.

 Particularly useful for holding socks

Using open shelving and a mix of baskets and drawers helps maximize storage in this petite dressing room. The shelving is designed to hold a variety of clothing and accessory items, but the woven baskets are particularly useful for holding socks, stockings, and underwear. The double jewelry drawers are a nice touch, too, as they will keep your accessories neatly organised and prevent tarnishing and stretching.

The large mirror

The large mirror in this custom made dressing room  adds a touch of glamour, but it's the smart use of floor-to-ceiling storage that really makes it stand out. Castle Home opted for open shelving instead of solid doors to make the closet feel bigger, which is perfect in this tiny dressing room, where space is limited. The glass-front cabinets help to brighten up the space, too, and the transparency forces you to keep them organized.

 Full-length mirror

Bespoke dressing room furniture is a smart choice when it comes to making the most of your space, as it can be tailored exactly to your space and needs. Skilled craftspeople will be able to work with any odd spaces, such as alcoves or sloping ceilings, and ensure you can maximise your wardrobe's potential. This dressing room was built into a corner of the bedroom and is separated from the rest of the space by a free-standing clothes rack and gold-framed full-length mirror.

 Room lighting

When you want to look your best, having the right lighting is crucial. Choose wall-mounted sconces, vanity lights and recessed or pendant lights to suit the mood and size of your dressing room. The trick to dressing room lighting is to avoid creating a harsh or overly-bright space, as it will have the opposite effect of what you're trying to achieve.

Conclusion

When it comes to choosing a colour scheme for your dressing room, neutrals are always a safe option as they're so versatile. Use soft grays and beiges to give your space a clean, contemporary feel, as shown in this gorgeous dressing room from Britt Design Studio. It features a large blown-glass bubble pendant light, plenty of built-in storage and a thrift store rattan seat.
