1. Transform a Hallway Into a Runway
Dressing rooms often feature a connecting space between the closet and the bedroom. Make use of this area by turning it into your own catwalk. Include a plush carpet for easy strutting and add a full-length mirror to your closet door for an outfit reveal.
Bright lighting is key when assembling outfits that reflect your personality. Hang chic overhead lighting like the chandelier featured above to add a hint of elegance to any closet space.
An accent wall instantly adds a charming touch to any closet space. Whether you paint your space or add wallpaper, choose playful colors like the light pink featured above. For an additional flair of glam, opt for wall art of your favorite actor or a boldly colored jewelry armoire.
Dark-stained furniture is timeless. Shades like walnut, cherry, or mahogany add an elegant touch to any space. Dark-stained hardwood creates a comfortable and sophisticated atmosphere within your dressing room.
Makeup vanities instantly imbue any space with elegance. If your bathroom gets crowded in the morning, consider adding a vanity to your dressing room instead. The gold-trimmed selection above, along with the faux fur vanity stool, is perfect for adding a luxurious flair to this space.
No dressing room is complete without comfortable seating. Consider adding a bench to sit on while putting on your shoes. To further maximize the space in your dressing room, go for a flip-top selection to store everything from your favorite heels to a few go-to accessories.
If a bench isn’t your style, consider adding an accent chair to your dressing room instead. Not only are accent chairs cozy, but they effortlessly add a glamorous touch. Available in a wide range of colors, opt for elegant fabrics like velvet or chenille.
If you’re running out of room in the closet, a wardrobe adds both ample storage and classic charm to your dressing room. Go for a wardrobe with drawers to store everything from long hanging pieces to foldable items.
Armoires are similar to wardrobes, but are typically larger in size and offer more vertical storage.
With ample space, armoires are ideal for your dressing room’s bulkier clothing items, like winter coats or formal gowns.

10. Add an Accent Mirror
Mirrors are an essential part of your dressing room fit checks. Plus, they reflect light to make your dressing room feel larger than it is. Whether you opt for a wardrobe with a mirror attached or hang a decorative selection in an elegant gold frame, mirrors are guaranteed to elongate your space.
Sometimes, dressing rooms lack closet space to hang clothes but have the wall space for a dresser or chest. Store your folding clothes like pajamas or in a glamorous dresser. Sleek white dressers are a timeless option and can be topped with flowers or gold-framed wall art for charming finishing touches.
If you don’t have room for a dresser but want somewhere to store foldable clothing items, a chest is the perfect vertical storage solution. Opt for a chest with gold metallic accents and clean lines to achieve a glam aesthetic.
Create a simple storage system for your dressing room by using cube storage containers and pieces. Designate each cube to a different clothing item, or use your cubes to keep go-to accessories within reach after assembling the perfect outfit.
Sometimes, you need a second opinion on your outfit while getting ready. Add an ottoman or pouf to your dressing room for a friend to lounge on or to provide seating for putting on your shoes. Black velvet ottomans and poufs add subtle luxury to any closet space.
A room divider creates a designated area to change within your dressing room. If you share the space with other members of your household, room dividers are ideal for privacy. The white selection above maintains a soft and glamorous feel.
Swap out mismatched hangers for a matching set to minimize visual clutter and create a cohesive look within your dressing room. Choose sleek white hangers for an elegant flair that complements a glam dressing room aesthetic.
If your dressing room doesn’t allow the closet space, hang your in-season clothes on a garment rack. Garment racks are timeless, chic, and allow your clothing to become part of your glam dressing room decor.
A mannequin stand allows you to proudly display your most glamorous or treasured clothing items. Its sleek design adds a touch of sophistication to any dressing room, all while helping you visualize ensembles without the hassle of trying them on.
