Mildew in walkin closet ; How to remodel?

I live in an apt. condo by the Ocean. A few pair of pants (unworn for a few years) in a walkin closet were found to have a while powder which the cleaner says is mildew. There is no smell in the closet. A few questions:

We have begun to dealing with the mildew? One side is an outside wall where all bricks were replaced a few years ago? Another side faces a bathroom. We washed down the walls with Vinegar, but I think we should remodel the closet. Do we add new inner walls on top of the old ones, and a ceiling with better insulation? Does that make the closet much smaller? Will that likely work or is it unnecessary? Or do we remove the existing walls and start over?

Thanks in advance.
