Creating Collections

Updated this week

Collections are curated, collage-style layouts that showcase multiple shoppable videos in one visual grid. They let you group related content, like a product line, theme, or campaign, so shoppers can explore several videos at once and tap into the ones that catch their eye. It’s an engaging way to present a fuller story, highlight a range of items, and drive discovery through a visually rich, shoppable experience.


Use Cases

Lookbooks & Outfit Inspiration

Use Collections to create a visually rich, shoppable lookbook. By grouping multiple styling or outfit videos into a collage, shoppers can browse full looks, explore different ways to wear key pieces, and tap directly into the items they love.

Creator or Influencer Picks

Showcase curated videos from creators or brand ambassadors in a single, shoppable collage. This lets shoppers explore recommendations from trusted voices, discover new products through authentic perspectives, and shop directly from the creator’s featured content.
