Start 2021 and what better way to do it than to start off on the right foot. We are all anxious that our lives gradually normalize, and that the celebrations begin with a new normal fills us all with hope.
For this reason, from Javier Barrio’s Haute Couture workshops, in Galicia, we want to give you some tips (five in particular) to organize your party dresses and that you get, in this way, the best part of this wonderful garment in the events that we all long for and wish to be organized in 2021.
Ordenar el armario
Tidying up your closet is the first basic rule that you must undertake, without further delay.
Dump on your bed all, absolutely all the party dresses you have, in all models and designs, both long dresses and short party dresses. Collect them, stockpile. The ones you kept in the storage room, in attics, in borrowed closets, look for them absolutely all.
It is time to order them conscientiously and for this it is necessary to have them all located in the same place. You will organize them in two groups:
- Long dresses
- Short dresses

Once the first phase of ordering them has been carried out and, above all, gathering them all in one place, we will start to try them on. Do not do it in a foolish way, do it conscientiously, otherwise the decision you make will not be the right one and being dressed for a party, you will regret it.
Ideally, you should have your high-heeled shoes and the appropriate underwear nearby, taking into account that the lingerie that is worn is important so that the party dress looks as it should on top.
Once you have these accessories on hand, you can invite a trusted friend or your mother (mothers never lie) to help you make the right decision.
You will begin to properly try on each of the dresses, they have to be objective when removing them from your closet. Eliminate what no longer favors you: either due to changes in risky trends or due to having changed the weight. Don’t be embarrassed, we are going to give you ideas on what to do with them, but don’t keep them in your closet: they take up space.

Ordenar vestidos por colores
Now comes the simplest thing, organize the party dresses in two groups:
- Short dresses
- Long dresses
From there, you must sort them by color range, starting from black to ending with white. In this way, the day you have an event it will be very comfortable and easy for you to identify the models and choose, according to the time, type of celebration and place, the most appropriate dress.
Rediseña tu propio vestido
Awaken your sustainable spirit by wearing short and long dresses, but above all, Haute Couture party dresses. With imagination, you can give them a second life.
In Javier Barrio you can redesign your own party dress with new trends, bringing fashion and modernity to the design that you no longer wear but, nevertheless, do not want to part with it.
In Javier Barrio’s workshops (in Galicia), we create new patterns in Haute Couture dresses that are unique jewels.

The digital world has given us many opportunities to give visibility to our fashion. Jump in and don’t miss out on these opportunities.
Why not use applications that offer us the possibility of selling party dresses that we no longer use, dresses that other girls will want to wear. Even if we don’t want to part with it, we can rent it. There are many possibilities with these Apps, many of them work exclusively with Haute Couture garments.
If you have very active Social Networks, take advantage of them to publicize the design you want to sell or rent, and perhaps, if you have visibility, with good photos and videos you will be able to sell or rent it yourself.
The most traditional part may be going to second-hand stores, but it is true that this type of business in Spain has not been as successful as in other European countries. For this reason, we advise you more to resort to applications and social networks to obtain better results. In this way, we are also responsible and sustainable with the environment.
