How to Create a Lookbook With Shopify?
Do you know what is a lookbook? Originally it was a collection of photographs to show off clothing style, model, or whatsoever used in printed magazines. But soon online clothing stores adopted this trick to showcase multiple products as an online lookbook, by adding hotspots to various parts of an image.
It’s an interactive section on your website where you can link various items by tagging separate items.
So when a user hovers these hotspots there appears a tooltip with a link of a product tagged on this photo. As for me this a really cool feature especially for lazy guys like me who hate shopping, and who can buy the whole look by adding to the cart all items tagged on the photo (in case they are OK.)

How to Make a Lookbook?

Select one and push the button Select.
Upon default, the hotspot’s position is the middle of an image, horizontal and vertical positions are 50%. By altering these values you can move the hotspot all around the image.
Now let’s put the dot on the girl’s left shoulder, we need to change those valued to 52% horizontal & 27% vertical, and here’s our dot:
No matter what type of goods you sell the photo lookbook section will be a perfect addition to your store especially if it’s a jewelry store, fashion store, or any other store.
