trend report

Our annual trend report that takes a look at what’s on the rise in our industry and what the current standards are, straight from the people creating the content, consumers, and our own research.

Fully AI generated image

No single event explains this year. It’s cumulative.

The rules of e-commerce visuals are being rewritten. In this year’s E-Commerce Visual Trend Report, we audited 200 product pages, surveyed consumers, and dug into the data to uncover three shifts shaping 2027: authenticity is changing, entertainment is making a comeback, and the “gold standard” product page is breaking. Learn what’s changing and why it’s good news for brands with a point of view.

Trend 01

Trust

Authenticity is becoming less about how an image looks and more about whether it feels true to the product. The new markers: continuity, specificity, transparency.

Trend 02

Beyond the standard

White background, familiar angles, expected order. Those standards still exist but the guardrails are coming off, and product pages look more different from each other than ever.

Trend 03

Variety is the discipline

By 2027, a deliberately varied PDP will no longer look like a lack of discipline.
