What do I get when I purchase this? Is it a book?

You will receive access to this collection within Frump Fighters' virtual styling platform, The Interactive. This makes it easy for your son (or yourself) to access his digital closet and outfits from your phone using our web app!

Note: If you haven't joined the platform yet, you'll want to add that to your order. If you're interested in purchasing an eBook or Hard Copy instead, see those products here.

Is this a mobile app? Can I download it from the app store?

To keep it more flexible and make it available on all devices (rather than only iOS or phones), the platform is a web-based application. Accessing it will feel very similar to an app, but it will operate from your browser. This means it will work on any device and be constantly in sync!

What makes this collection different from other fashion and wardrobe planning resources available in the market?

This resource stands out for several reasons!

First, it is not just about providing outfit ideas; it is about helping your son understand his wardrobe better. We categorize items that every boy should own, like 'Neutral Pants' or 'Print Shirt' so you can get clarity on what he has and what he's missing. This makes shopping easier and more focused.

Second, this collection brings standardization to 'what to wear.' We take the thinking out of getting dressed by creating a list of essential clothing items. You can match these items with what your son already owns in his closet, check them off, and add pictures of his items. This feature is unique as it helps you visualize his outfits and identify gaps in his wardrobe.

Third, we offer standard outfit templates (like outfit recipes) using those pieces. So, your son doesn't need personal fashion savvy or experience to put together stylish outfits. He'll have access to over 220 everyday outfit templates/combos in the Boys' Essentials collection alone!

And finally, our Interactive™ platform takes personalization to a whole new level. You can create 'Outfit Calendars' based on the weather in your area, meaning the platform pre-plans a year of outfits for him using his clothes! (Premium level required)

So, what sets us apart? It's our ability to make fashion simple and automated without compromising on style.

Whereas other brand's apps make you figure out style on your own, we provide the framework and you then customize as much (or as little) as you like from there.

Imagine starting each day with confidence, knowing that your son has a curated set of stylish outfits at his fingertips. The Boys' Essentials Style Collection simplifies your mornings, reduces stress, and ensures he always looks polished and put-together.

What if I don’t have any budget to buy clothes right now?

Building up a wardrobe your son loves can take months or even years. The cool thing is, even without all the recommended pieces, he can enjoy tons of versatility and have fun in the process. Start by purging his closet to get down to the best of what he has. Plan a monthly budget for clothes and focus on 1 or 2 essentials from the list that would help add versatility. Don’t forget to check your local thrift stores!

Do I have to buy the clothes on your list for this to work?

The pieces pictured are just examples. The goal is to use the description about each piece to find something in his closet or the store that matches the description. We also provide a shopping guide to help with shopping for the wardrobe gaps you'll probably discover.

Are there shopping links to all the items? Will we be able to shop items directly from the platform?

Currently, you can find links to the example pieces provided by Frump Fighters (note: original examples don't always stay in stock) and users can add store, brand, or links to the items they are styling and share publicly. (Premium level required)

In addition, you'll get an Amazon shopping guide with hundreds of links to help you find essentials your son might be missing.

Won’t my son get bored by the size of a capsule wardrobe?

We call this a capsule because it is focused on leanness and creating remixability in his wardrobe. However, this is no mini, boring capsule. It’s a complete wardrobe framework that will last him a long time, with over 220 unique outfit combinations!

What if I want a minimalist capsule wardrobe for my son... 220 outfits seems like too many!

If you prefer a more minimalist approach, you can filter the closet list by "Essentials," and that cuts the number of pieces in half! Then check off what he has and easily filter the outfits by "Outfits I Can Make" to just see the outfits using the smaller set of items.

What if my son is over 12, will this still work for him?

The styles in this collection are intended for boys under 12. Moms of adolescents and teen sons usually use the Men's Essentials collection, adapting the styles as needed.

Does this work for plus size boys too?

Yes, we have boys of every shape and size using it and looking fab!

What if my son has clothes that aren't on the essentials list?

You will find a match for pretty much every clothing item on our list, but let's say he has something like a Jumpsuit, Shorts, or a Hoodie that he wants to keep: You can easily add them to his digital closet and create outfits with them too! (Requires Premium level.)

Does this work for boys who are still growing?

Yes, this collection is designed to be versatile and can adapt as your son grows. You can easily update his digital closet with new sizes and pieces as needed!
