Tired of the same look? Want to put a twist on some of your favorite Moche pieces? We took a customer favorite, The Benita Poncho, and styled it 4 different ways. When you done wearing it… roll it up and stash it in your purse.
So cheers to old staples and new ideas! Tag us on Instagram and Facebook to show us how you wear your Benita.
A great display gives your customer an opportunity to visualize an item on themselves. So here are a few merchandising ideas for your winter knits.
1. Create interesting “lifts and levels” for visual interest.
2. Keep your display hardware neutral so not to compete with your items for sale.
3. Choose a coordinating color pallet.
4. Use flocked hangers rather than wooden or plastic to prevent snagging.
5. Knits ideally should be folded flat but they are difficult to merchandise that way. Here at Moche Lifestyle we have found if you create a small display it helps your customer visualize how beautiful they look on.
So have fun styling by putting different pieces and colors together for an eye catching display.
Featured Items: The Multi-Knit Poncho, The “Tina” Shrug, The “Camilla” Cardigan, The “Zoe” Hat, The Shaker Stitch Tie, The “Marcia” Headband, The Fingerless Gloves, and The “Benita” Poncho
This the season to fill your home with fresh fall colors and textures.

Grab some greenery too. You can go fragrant with some seeded eucalyptus or some herbs. Olive branches are great for a dusty green touch and can add height.
Dried hydrangeas to fill in bare spots and add fullness.

Now get to creating. Company is coming! TIPS & TRICKS: When creating a centerpiece arrangement for a dining table keep in mind not to block the view of the person sitting across the table. Table arrangements should be below eye level so they can be enjoyed as much as the company of your guests.
