To trend or not to trend? 

This issue Managing Editor Danielle Harvey has put together a fantastic feature that takes lead from Pantone’s Colour of the Year – Veri Peri. With purple associated with spirituality and bravery, the colour perfectly sums up how many consumers are feeling after two years of the pandemic. However, do you make your buying decision based on the colour trends highlighted by Pantone, or are you more fluid in your purchasing style? There’s no right or wrong answer, and it can all depend on what works best in your store. 

Check out other great features this issue, including a focus on Mother’s Day, Easter Gifts, and Anniversary offerings.  

Enjoy the issue!
