This calculator helps you understand the year-round value of your lingerie. You input the cost of a lingerie piece and specify which seasons you're likely to wear it in (e.g., a cotton bralette for Spring and Summer, a merino wool layer for Autumn and Winter). The calculator then divides the total cost across the selected seasons, showing you a 'cost-per-season' to better justify its place in your wardrobe.

This tool encourages you to think about the versatility of your lingerie. Instead of viewing a piece as a single-season item, this calculator helps you see its potential for year-round use. It justifies investing in high-quality, versatile pieces that can be worn across multiple seasons, ultimately giving you better value for your money and promoting a more sustainable, less disposable approach to your wardrobe.

The result shows you the cost of a lingerie piece broken down per season of wear. A low cost-per-season indicates a highly versatile and valuable garment. Use this information to prioritize purchasing items that can adapt to different times of the year. It helps you build a smarter, more efficient 'capsule' wardrobe where every piece works hard for its spot.

• Invest in neutral-colored basics (black, nude, white) as they are the easiest to wear year-round.
• Look for convertible bras with straps that can be changed to suit different tops across seasons.
• A high-quality silk chemise can be sleepwear in the summer and a slip under a dress in the winter.
• Before buying a new piece, challenge yourself to think about how many seasons you can realistically wear it in.
• Use this calculator to justify investing in a high-quality piece that might seem expensive but has great year-round potential.
