# Velvet Horizon

[Velvet Horizon](https://apparel-lingerie.mock.shop/llms.txt) is a [mock.shop](https://www.mock.shop/) sample store for building against a lingerie and nightwear shop before a real Shopify store is ready. The catalog includes silk chemises, satin nightwear, robes, bralettes, bodysuits, shapewear, slippers, and bath and fragrance accessories. There are 30 products across four collections. Every product requires shipping, eight carry a compare-at price, and options include Color and Size on clothing and Scent and Finish on bath accessories.

mock.shop is an auth-free Shopify Storefront GraphQL API backed by sample reference stores. Find out more about [mock.shop sample stores](https://www.shopify.com/blog/mock-shop).

## When to use this store

Choose Velvet Horizon when you’re building a lingerie and nightwear shop with robes, bralettes, sleepwear, and bath accessories. Product pages can adapt their size, color, material, or scent choices to each item.

Use Velvet Horizon for:

- A lingerie and nightwear shop combining robes, bralettes, and bath accessories
- Size and color selectors for clothing and Scent and Finish choices for bath products
- Selected-variant prices and compare-at displays

Choose another mock.shop store if you need a large catalog, gear or activewear products, or a store without fragrance and accessory categories. Browse <https://mock.shop/llms.txt> to find a store that matches your catalog.

## Example Velvet Horizon query

Here’s an example GraphQL `POST` request that retrieves options and variant prices for one product from <https://apparel-lingerie.mock.shop/api>:

```bash
curl https://apparel-lingerie.mock.shop/api \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{"query":"{ product(handle: \"silk-chemise\") { id title options { name values } variants(first: 20) { pageInfo { hasNextPage } nodes { id title selectedOptions { name value } price { amount currencyCode } compareAtPrice { amount currencyCode } availableForSale } } } }"}'
```

This query retrieves Silk Chemise, including option values, variant IDs, selected options, availability, and current and compare-at prices. Use the selected variant’s ID and price when adding it to a cart.

The endpoint doesn't require authentication or an access token. Read <https://apparel-lingerie.mock.shop/llms.txt> for catalog details and store-specific instructions.

## What this catalog lets you test

Build a lingerie and nightwear storefront with collection browsing for robes, bralettes, sleepwear, and bath products. The Silk Chemise combines XS through L sizes with colors like Midnight Blue, Deep Emerald, and Dusty Rose. Other products pair bra-style size labels, such as 32A and 34B, with Material choices. You can test variant selector behavior across two option-name orderings, where some products list Color then Size and others list Size then Color, making it useful for checking selector consistency across different formats. Eight products carry a compare-at price for testing sale badge display on items like the Satin Nightwear. The bath and fragrance category uses Scent and Finish axes rather than Size and Color, supporting selector logic for non-clothing products alongside the main apparel range.

Preview the catalog in a storefront by opening <https://apparel-lingerie.hydrogen.mock.shop> in a browser.

## Build with an AI coding tool

To build a lingerie and nightwear storefront with Velvet Horizon using Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Lovable, or another AI assistant, copy the prompt below. It gives the assistant the store domain and directs it to the catalog instructions before it starts writing code.

```text
Build me a Hydrogen storefront using apparel-lingerie.mock.shop as the store domain. Setup instructions: apparel-lingerie.mock.shop/llms.txt
```

Shopify also provides a [mock.shop starter project](https://github.com/Shopify/mock-shop-starter): a Hydrogen storefront with product pages, collection browsing, and a working cart already connected to mock.shop. You or your AI coding tool can customize this code instead of building those pieces from scratch.

Follow the repository’s setup instructions, then set `PUBLIC_STORE_DOMAIN=apparel-lingerie.mock.shop` in `.env` and restart the dev server to use Velvet Horizon’s catalog. Leave `PUBLIC_STOREFRONT_API_TOKEN` empty; mock.shop doesn’t require a token.

## Move to a real Shopify store

mock.shop uses fictional, read-only catalog data. Cart operations work, and checkout is mocked: no payment is taken and no real order is placed. The Customer Account API isn’t supported.

When you’re ready to launch, point your storefront at a Shopify store and add that store’s public Storefront API token. If you don’t have a Shopify store yet, [start a Shopify free trial](https://www.shopify.com/free-trial) to create one.

Read the [mock.shop developer documentation](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/headless/mock-shop) for setup and migration details.
