Across 221 real Stiletto stores, 81.1% pass Google’s Core Web Vitals (median LCP 1.7s). Filtered to stores running only a few apps, that rises to 87.3%, isolating the theme’s own speed from the apps merchants pile on.
Stiletto is a premium theme from Fluorescent Design built for brands that want a polished, editorial storefront. The look is clean and fashion-forward, with generous whitespace and large imagery that flatters lifestyle and product photography. It fits jewelry and accessories, apparel, and upscale food and drink shops. Five presets ship in the box: Stiletto, Luster, Linen, Glimmer, and Tapestry. Each gives the same theme a different mood, so a boutique and a modern label can both start from a design that already suits them.
The feature set leans hard into merchandising and conversion. Mega menus and enhanced search keep large catalogs browsable, which matters because stores on Stiletto tend to carry a lot of products. Image hotspots, lookbooks, before and after sliders, and product videos let you tell a visual story on the product page. On the selling side you get cart upsells, a sticky buy button, free shipping bars, countdown timers, and promo popups, so most campaign mechanics work without extra apps. That helps explain why stores here run a leaner app stack than the store-wide average.
Where it shines: Presentation. The layouts make product photography look expensive, and the built-in merchandising tools cover most of what a fashion or jewelry brand needs from day one. That means fewer apps to buy and maintain.
The trade-off: It sits at the higher end of Theme Store pricing, and the feature depth brings a real setup curve. You will spend time in the editor before it looks like the demo.
Best fit: Image-led brands with a growing catalog. Jewelry, accessories, apparel, and design-forward food and drink. Merchants who value look and built-in tools over a bare, minimal starting point.
Before you buy: The presets are a starting point, not a finished store. Budget time for photography and layout work. If your catalog is tiny or your brand is purely utilitarian, a lighter theme will get you live faster for less.

This figure comes from live detection: we scan Shopify storefronts and read the active theme each one runs, then express it as a share of the 3,500,000+ stores in our dataset. It is a share of every store in our dataset, not just recently scanned stores, so it moves more slowly than the month-over-month figures on our trends page. We report what is currently detected, not historical installs or Theme Store / App Store counts.
Independent by design: rankings are determined solely by live detection data. Affiliate relationships never affect what ranks or how stores are counted. Read the full methodology →
