What’s new in Katharine 1.5
Version 1.5
Latest
What it does
Fashion blogs live on presentation, and many general blog themes leave you fighting the layout to make photos and stories look right. Katharine starts from a design made for this niche. It ships with 10 unique page variations, so you can pick a layout that suits your content instead of building one from nothing. A one-click demo import loads sample content as a starting point, and you swap in your own posts, images and branding from there.
For page building, the theme works with the Visual Composer drag and drop builder and adds 10 custom advanced elements of its own. A live customizer lets you preview design changes in real time, and a simple checkbox turns a custom page into a one-page layout with sections. The design is responsive and retina ready, and WPML compatibility means you can run the blog in more than one language.
Best for
- Fashion bloggers who want a clean, modern design
- Lifestyle influencers publishing photo-led posts and style tips
- Multilingual style blogs running WPML
