πŸ“‚ What Is a Lookbook Archive?

A lookbook archive is a curated collection of multiple lookbooks (up to 9) that showcase past or seasonal styles, campaigns, or editorial content. Each lookbook is built as a standalone page using the Lookbook templates, and then linked together to form an accessible archive.

This is perfect for brands that want to:

  • Maintain a visual history of drops or collections

  • Share seasonal stories in a clean, navigable layout

  • Build long-term brand narrative without clutter


🧱 Step 1: Create Individual Lookbook Pages

Each lookbook in your archive must be built using one of the 9 available Lookbook templates.

  1. Go to Online Store > Pages

  2. Click Add Page

  3. Name the page (e.g. Lookbook SS24, Campaign 01, etc.)

  4. Under Theme Template, choose one of the Lookbook templates:

    • lookbook.1

    • lookbook.2

    • …

    • lookbook.9

  5. Click Save


🧭 Step 2: Add Lookbooks to Your Menu

To make your archive accessible, you can create a custom menu structure.

  1. Go to Online Store > Navigation

  2. Choose your header or custom menu (e.g. β€œLookbooks”)

  3. Add the top-level item (e.g. Lookbook Archive)

  4. Underneath, add child links for each individual lookbook page

Example:

Lookbooks
β”œβ”€β”€ SS24 Campaign
β”œβ”€β”€ FW23 Lookbook
β”œβ”€β”€ Editorial Drop 01

πŸ’‘ Tip: Use clear naming conventions like seasons or drop numbers to keep your archive organized.


πŸ“ Optional: Create a Dedicated Archive Page

Want a visual hub for your archive?

  1. Create a new Default Page (e.g. All Lookbooks)

  2. In the Theme Editor, assign the page.default template

  3. Use sections like:

    • Image Links

    • Collection List

    • Gallery Grid

This gives you full control over how your archive is presented while linking out to each lookbook page.
