January in New York is when reality sets in.

The parties are over. The temperatures are unforgiving. And suddenly, your wardrobe is doing real work again.

This is also the moment when we see the most damage done to great clothing.

At JULIETTE, January is our busiest inspection month. Not because people are careless—but because most New Yorkers have never been taught how to truly care for the pieces they invested in.

From subway grit to closet chaos, New York takes a toll on your wardrobe. In The NYC Wardrobe Survival Guide, Rechelle Balanzat shares how to keep your clothes flawless through every season — from tackling fabric fatigue to mastering quick fixes on the go. Discover how to care for your pieces like a true New Yorker: with grit, grace, and a little help from JULIETTE.
