Merry and Bright: Display inspiration from Christmasworld
As seen in Holiday Shop 2025.
The 2025 installment of international trade fair Christmasworld, hosted by Messe Frankfurt in Frankfurt, Germany, brought festive display inspiration and trends to the retail industry.
Trends included a fresh take on vintage holiday décor, featuring extra elements of whimsy and light, that evoked warmth and nostalgia. In a similar vein, desserts-turned-décor was a popular trend across showrooms. From croissant ornaments to cake-shaped figural candles, sweet treats were aplenty in holiday.
Additionally, unconventional colorways were introduced to the holiday market. Among those were pinks and reds, presenting a Valentine’s Day-esque take on traditional Christmas. Jewel tones, neons and pastels also enriched the offerings, giving retailers opportunities to both modernize and individualize their holiday merchandise.
In these pages, you’ll discover merchandising and retail displays that left Gift Shop® Plus feeling captivated, in awe and inspired.
