The fall season is rapidly approaching, and retailers are filling their shelves with products for the coming months. On the Faire marketplace, weā€™ve seen searches for ā€œfallā€ increase 10x globally since June 1st, and searches for ā€œfall decorā€ and ā€œHalloweenā€ are at their highest of the year, indicating that now is the time to stock up on all things autumn. 

To help our community of retailers discover products their customers will love, weā€™ve been keeping an eye on the latest trends emerging for fall. With the help of global search and buying data from the Faire marketplace, weā€™ve rounded up six trends for fall 2022 to stock for your store.

1. Fall decor

As the end of summer approaches, consumers are setting their sights on all things autumnalfrom home decor and seasonal candles to Halloween candy.

At our recent Faire Summer Market, ā€œHalloweenā€ and ā€œfallā€ were two of the most popular global searches, and that trend continues to prevail. In addition, ā€œfall decorā€ has been one of the top five most popular searches in the US and Canada on Faire for the past five weeks. Finally, ā€œSeasonal decorā€ has been one of the top ten most popular categories globally across Faire for the past five weeks. 

Sales of fall decor items such as handmade velvet and fabric decorative pumpkins, like those from Your Heartā€™s Content and Blossom and Dash, are on the rise. Other popular items for fall include autumn scented candles, like those from Sweet Water Decor and Driftless Studios, and home accents like plaid throw blankets and pillows C&F Home and The Tartan Blanket Co.

Halloween has also been at the forefront of customersā€™ minds, and the word has been one of the top five search terms in the US, Canada, and the UK for the past five weeks.
