12 bewilderingly bright ecommerce sites for your instant attention

Finally an excuse to wear your sunglasses around the office.

One of the easiest ways for a website to immediately grab the attention of a visitor is to turn the colour up. Way up.

If you’re of a particularly bold inclination, I for one am hugely attracted to bright solid colours or anything neon, you’ll appreciate it when a site breaks out of the usual whites, greys and blacks of typical ecommerce design.

It separates you from the crowd. It’s a statement of independence. It’s a statement of rebellion. Sure not everyone will dig your new hypercoloured threads, but just remember that the squares can keep their greys… You’ve gone Technicolor.

#Beer

Hard to miss collaboration between Engage and Revolutions, which also has a neat little spin the bottle touch.

Lancome

Pink. So much pink. It’s glorious, and the site itself is a scrolling, interactive winner.

Handy Hat

There’s so much going on here, but all of it is completely charming and filled with wonder.

Fitbit

Fitbit has a brilliant scrolling, subtly-animated lead-in to its ecommerce site which reveals equally colourful product pages.

Oilily

This is a fantastic scrolling website showcasing the history of the Dutch fashion brand.

Urban Originals

Incredibly large bright images completely dominate the homepage and make for an arresting welcome.
