- Access collections through Store Products > Collections in your Wix dashboard

Creating product collections on your Wix store makes browsing simpler for customers and keeps your inventory organised. Here's how to set them up properly.
Getting to Your Collections
Head to your Wix dashboard and navigate to Store Products, then click Collections. This is your control centre for organising products into groups.
Creating Your First Collection
Click the option to add a new collection. Give it a clear name that customers will understand immediately. You can base collections on:
- Product categories (shirts, trousers, accessories)
- Styles (vintage, modern, minimalist)
- Occasions (summer wear, work clothes, evening outfits)
- Price ranges (under £50, premium items)
The key is choosing groupings that match how your customers actually shop.
Adding Products to Collections
Once you've created a collection, start assigning products to it. Select items that fit your collection's theme or criteria. Remember, you can add the same product to multiple collections if it makes sense. A black dress might belong in both "Evening Wear" and "Work Clothes" collections.
Making Collections Visible
Your collections won't help customers if they can't find them. Link collections from your homepage or add them to your main navigation menu. This gives visitors clear pathways to browse specific product types.
Organising Within Collections
Use Wix's drag-and-drop feature to arrange products within each collection. Put your best sellers or newest items at the front where customers will see them first.
Keeping Collections Fresh
Review your collections regularly. Add new products, remove discontinued items, and adjust groupings based on what's selling well. Seasonal collections work particularly well for keeping your store current.
