Trends for October designs are here — and they’re anything but ordinary. This season, rich colors, tactile textures, and bold visuals are stealing the show, both in print and on display. Whether you’re designing a retail environment, curating décor for an event, or updating your fall marketing, these trends are perfect for giving your brand that extra touch of seasonal magic.
🕯️ Witchcore
A darkly glamorous look that blends mystery with elegance. Think velvet textures, deep plum tones, and shimmering candlelight.
Color palette: Deep plum, forest green, and midnight black.
Style it in print: Use foil accents, layered matte finishes, and metallic inks to capture the mood. Add celestial motifs or gothic-inspired typography for an elevated edge.
🌿 Venom & Vines
Whimsical yet slightly sinister, this trend is inspired by carnivorous plants and enchanted forests.
Color palette: Earthy greens with vibrant pops of “toxic” color — chartreuse, magenta, and acid yellow.
Style it in print: Oversized leafy graphics, intricate line art, and glossy textures that mimic natural shine make this theme feel alive. Perfect for posters, packaging, or displays that demand attention.
👻 Creepy-Cute & Playful
A quirky mix of charm and chill. It’s Halloween, but make it adorable.
Color palette: Pastels meet neon; soft pinks and icy blues paired with jet black or electric purple.
Style it in print: Think playful fonts, cartoonish ghosts, and vintage Halloween motifs. Great for social campaigns, postcards, and window graphics.
