The Rise of Twilight Merchandise
The books and films are still an integral element of pop culture even when the last Twilight film was released in 2012. Twilight fans (also called Twihards) continue to spread the tale and have even transformed their passion into their own business, by making merchandise featuring the Twilight franchise.





You can find this merch in stores such as Burger King, Nordstrom, and Barnes & Noble. CafePress as well as similar sites sell Twilight themed t- shirts and other products directly to customers.





The success of both book and film adaptations has fueled the twilight merchandise trend. The soundtrack album for the film was a top seller on the Billboard music charts, while the book jumped back onto the list of bestsellers. Hot Topic, a mall-based retailer, has experienced an increase in sales due to the film's popularity. Sales of its comparable stores have increased in recent months, and the retailer recently disclosed that its licensed Twilight merchandise was a major factor in the expansion.





The Twilight series isn't just about merchandise. It also has spawned a whole aesthetic, which is being promoted by social media sites such as TikTok or Instagram. The "Twilight Renaissance" has attracted thousands of girls in their tweens and teens to re-create scenes from the movie and to write parodies or homages to Bella Swan. It has also given rise to a brand new look in fashion that is characterized by dark earthy tones and gothic makeup.





Bath and Body Works has an entire line of body products that are scented and bear the Volturi logo. The range includes perfumed body mists and lip glosses, black glittery lipstick, as well as eye shadow duos. The products evoke the images of the Volturi warriors, and they are presented in crimson-colored boxes.





While twilight merchandise has been very popular, it is crucial for retailers to remember that the demographic of teenage girls is one that fluctuates and quickly turns to the next big thing. Retailers must keep an eye on the latest trends to keep their customers from being lost.





It's ironic that the Twilight series is reviving, considering its stars Robert Pattinson, and Kristen Stewart have both voiced their displeasure. W magazine has published an exhaustive list of everything Pattinson and Stewart have said about the series, and DIY compilations of their comments against the series are a hit on TikTok. However, if the teens are able to overlook their snarky remarks and welcome the new generation of fans eager to buy twilight merch that will result in an extremely successful trend for fans and retailers. The demand for twilight merch has even prompted certain companies to open physical locations in the actual towns of Forks and Port Angeles, Washington. The stores stock a variety of merchandise relating to the film series, including twilight jewellery and the twilight cosmetic line.
