We’re excited to introduce you to our first Faire Fashion Index, where we’ll cover the top sartorial searches from the previous month to help you stay on the cusp of what’s cool and new. This past month, we saw a lot of holiday prep, as retailers searched for Valentine’s Day goods, like cozy sweaters with hearts and graphic sweatshirts, and a few Mardi Gras accessories as well. Easter and St. Patrick’s Day are on the horizon, so they’re also on the hunt for those holidays’ usual festive gear.
As Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce continue to go viral for just about everything they do, consumers want in with Eras Tour and the Big Game-themed merch. Though football isn’t having all the fun, as baseball merch is making an appearance on our top list too. Finally, for everyday wear, shoppers are on the lookout for a great pair of jeans (who isn’t?), Western apparel, and plus-size clothing.
After we dive into the top searches, we’ll also show you the products and brands that are catching consumers’ eyes.
