Whering is the wardrobe app making your packing experience lighter. There’s a reason Condé Nast Traveller named us a must-have travel app– we take the stress out of deciding what to wear on holiday and feeling like you’ve forgotten something.
See our ultimate packing guide to take you from choosing outfits to packing your suitcase. You’ll never dread prepping for a trip again.

It might sound strange to use an app to pack a suitcase, but we find Whering makes it much easier. Here’s how to use an app to save time packing:
We’re a wardrobe app, so if you’re a Whering user you’ve already got all your clothes digitised in the app. With Whering, deciding what to pack just got easier. See a clear overview of all your clothes so you can choose what to bring faster. You may also discover hidden gems you’d forgotten about that are perfect for your trip.
After you’ve chosen what you want to take with you, our AI will suggest items you may have forgotten so you’re ready for anything. We’ll create an itemised packing list for you to check off as you go, so no stone is left unturned.
The good thing about Whering’s packing list is that you can have full control over the outfits you pack, or you can use AI to do some of the decision-making for you. If you’re unsure what to take, use W Pick to suggest outfits you’ll love.
Whether you need outfit inspiration whilst you’re away or you’re not ready to plan outfits before you leave, you can create a Lookbook of items and outfits you want to take with you to create a holiday capsule.
Start by adding holiday-ready items and outfits to a Lookbook and generate a packing list from this folder. Afterwards, you can filter to shuffle this Lookbook on Dress Me to get outfit ideas from a smaller selection of items.
When creating a packing list on Whering, you’re asked to assign outfits or items to particular days of your holiday. Spend less time deciding what to wear each day, and more time enjoying your much-needed break.
Those are just some of the ways Whering’s packing list tool can help you, but there are plenty of other tips and tricks to ease the packing process. Starting with our clothing-related packing hacks.
We’ve all been there in a last-minute dash to fill a suitcase, counting how many tops and bottoms we need and throwing them in. But this only lets us down when we’re at our destination and find nothing goes together. The result is not feeling confident in any of the outfits we’ve packed.
You want to feel your best on holiday, so consider packing outfits rather than random items. Rather than spending hours deciding what to wear, simply open the Whering app and flick through outfits you’ve already made to find your faves for your getaway. Once you’ve added them to an event or a Lookbook, you can generate an itemised packing list in just one tap.
No need to rummage through your wardrobe, you already know what killer outfits you’re packing.
With Easy Jet shrinking hand luggage allowance, we can all afford to save space when packing. Knowing what the weather will be like is step one to ensure you don’t pack unnecessary items you won’t get a chance to wear.
A problem shared is a problem halved. Why face packing your suitcase alone when you could do it with your besties? Coordinate who is taking what so you can borrow clothes from each other. You’ll all be able to pack lighter and dress better, with more outfit options from fewer pieces.
If you’re all different sizes, why not share accessories? Hats, sunglasses, scarves or earrings can completely change an outfit. Pool your accessories for a wider range of options.
Packing more than you need might sound like the best way to have endless outfit options, but we disagree. You can take fewer items and get more out of them with Whering. If you haven’t already, add everything you’re taking on your trip to a Lookbook on Whering. Filter to shuffle this Lookbook on Dress Me and you’ll be able to shuffle your chosen selection of items and get different outfit ideas from what you’ve packed.
With our clothing-related hacks done and dusted, how about when it comes to actually packing the suitcase? We’ve got you covered…

Keep your clothes clean by putting shower caps around your shoes. Having a bit of protection around the shoe sole helps avoid dirt ending up in your suitcase but also lets you easily see which shoes you bought at a glance so you can choose a pair faster. We suggest reusing the same shower caps each trip to make it more sustainable.
If you haven’t found your favourite packing method, try rolling up your clothes or using packing cubes to save space. As well as maximising the space in your suitcase, you can get organised with what’s in which cube. Divide up different days, locations or item types into packing cubes. This will make it much easier to find what you’re looking for and help keep your suitcase from becoming a mountain of clothes.
Pack heavier items near the wheels of your suitcase to help it stay level as you’re wheeling it around. It’s a small thing to make your journey feel more seamless.
That’s how to pack your suitcase, but what are you taking?

Don’t forget to bring a laundry bag! It’s easy to forget, but it’s super important to keep your suitcase organised and ensure your dirty and clean clothes are separate. That way, you can clearly see what you have available to wear.
It takes up virtually no space in your luggage, but packing a tote bag is always a good idea. Whether you use it as a beach bag, shopping bag, or extra carry-on space on your way home, you’ll need it at some point.
Being on a flight or a train is always the perfect time to read. Having a good book with you is essential on most holidays, especially if you’re spending time by the pool.
Even though you might want to take a new pair of shoes with you, packing some trusted comfortable and practical shoes is always a must. There’s nothing worse than blisters and not being able to explore comfortably.
With all your essentials packed, let’s walk you through how to pack a suitcase on Whering.
