Casa Givash — Shopify 2.0 Store for Children’s Fashion

Casa Givash is a new Italian brand for premium children’s fashion. In just five weeks, Smart Dato designed and built a custom Shopify 2.0 theme, translating a refined brand aesthetic into fast, editorial storefront sections the client can manage independently.
As a Shopify agency based in South Tyrol (Bolzano/Bozen), our Shopify development team led design, implementation, and launch to create a premium experience that’s easy to scale.

Casa Givash is an Italian children’s fashion brand crafting premium pieces from authentic cashmere and merino wool.

Mobile apps: design and navigation of Smart Dato

We created a Shopify 2.0 store that looks and feels like the luxury brand and that the team can manage independently.
The brief was to go from concept to a custom, production-ready theme. We focused on an editorial storefront with bespoke Liquid sections (hero, lookbook, collection banners, product grids), a clean catalog and variants setup, fast mobile performance, and a launch-ready foundation that can scale with seasonal drops and future ERP/PIM integrations.

What we delivered

Custom design from scratch matching the typography, color system, responsive grid.
Domain and launch: primary domain set with a smooth transition from the previous presence.
Performance & UX: lightweight theme architecture, mobile-first details, clear visual hierarchy.
Catalog setup: collections, product import, variants, consistent styling, image optimization.
Bespoke Liquid development: hero carousel, lookbook slider, collection banners, custom drawer menu, dynamic product grids.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a custom Shopify theme or can we start with a template?

You can launch with a high-quality template, but a custom Shopify theme gives you full control over design and editorial sections. For Casa Givash we built a custom theme to express the brand’s luxury look and streamline content updates.

How fast can a Shopify store go live?

With clear scope and ready assets, we can deliver a production-ready store in about 4-6 weeks, as we did for Casa Givash. Timelines depend on content readiness, catalog size, and integration needs, but our Shopify development process is optimized for short time-to-market.

What’s included in the Shopify store setup?

End-to-end Shopify store setup covers theme design/development, section configuration, catalog and variant setup, image optimization, payments/shipping/taxes, basic tracking, and launch support (domain, redirects). We also structure content so non-technical editors can manage pages and seasonal drops independently.

What are the benefits of Shopify 2.0 theme development for editorial storytelling?

Shopify 2.0 introduces flexible sections everywhere, JSON templates, and faster theme architecture, ideal for editorial layouts, lookbooks, collection banners, and product grids. You get reusable, brand-consistent blocks that marketing teams can rearrange without code, improving speed to publish and overall UX.
