The Etsy Trend Edit: S/S 2026

Etsy releases a biannual Trend Edit to share shopping trends shaping the season. With the rise of sameification and AI overload in 2026, this season's trends show how shoppers are leaning into what feels personal, imperfect, and intentional.

Our team was guided by the season's focus on personalization, and were inspired to creaet an homage to the ultra-personal DIY spirit. Using the merchandise, polaroids, textures, and a wide variety of props, we created bespoke collages to showcase each trend. The full guide can be flipped through below, or read here.
