Picking a Suitable WordPress Theme
Now that you’ve determined your niche, you should go ahead and pick the appropriate WordPress theme for your fashion blog. Luckily, there’s no shortage of WordPress themes you can use – no matter if you want to go with a premium theme or opt for one of the available free options instead. If you choose to go premium, you will be able to find many fashion-oriented themes that come with everything you need to create a beautiful and professional fashion blog. These themes include anything from premade homepage templates and beautiful galleries to a full-blown blog functionality that will allow you to choose a perfect content layout for your blog and customize every single aspect of it according to your preferences.
Now, when it comes to free themes, we’d like to single out our very own Qi Theme. This theme is fast, lightweight, and comes with a set of 100 professionally built site templates you can use to create just about any modern website or blog imaginable. You just need to pick your favorite demo (you will find anything from product presentation and sports shop to jewelry store and modeling agency-oriented templates) and then adapt it completely to your needs. In addition, the theme is packed with tons of useful blog elements that will truly help your fashion blog stand out. These include a blog list, blog carousel, contemporary post layouts, and flexible single post templates, among others. All in all, this theme is perfect if you’re on the budget but still want to have some of the premium options at your disposal, like professional support, stunning design, and complete flexibility.
The sort of page builder or editor you plan on using also plays a role in picking the theme. A lot of users, especially if they’re just starting, opt for Gutenberg, the WordPress’ own native page builder. The platform has recently introduced changes towards full site editing, which means creating entire websites (not just content) using blocks. You can create a perfectly functional and even good-looking website using the default WordPress theme, but for superb design and advanced flexibility, we recommend checking out Qi Templates. It’s a collection of page templates and patterns, as well as style-free wireframes and even full-fledged demos, powered by Qi Blocks for Gutenberg. The templates feature the latest design innovations and modern, eye-catching design, which is very important for fashion blogs.
