Summary
Pick Ipanema if…
Merchants who want full design freedom without paying for a premium theme or hiring a developer.
Watch out for: Because it uses the new sections architecture, some legacy FTP/Twig customizations do not carry over the same way.
See Ipanema theme details →Pick Trend if…
Food and drinks, apparel and beauty brands with a young, relaxed feel.
Watch out for: It is one of the least configurable themes; if you need many showcases look at Recife or Toluca.
