Appearance
Shop the look
This guide describes the Shop the look section.
Use the section to display an image featuring your products, with a hotspot for each item shown. A corresponding product list appears alongside the image, and both hotspots and list items link to their respective product pages.
The previous image shows the section on an example store's home page. In the upper left, part of Theme editor's Shop the look section menu is displayed. The menu's Desktop alignment option is set to Top. This option specifies the position of the product items list inside the section's Product list area. For example, in the previous image, the product items list, including 1. Blue dress and 2. Yellow dress, is positioned at the top of the section.
For general guidance with modifying sections, refer to Sections overview and Shopify help: Sections and blocks.
