# Variant options

{% hint style="success" %}
To add and edit variants for products with multiple options (e.g. colors, sizes) go to *Products* in the Shopify admin. Learn more in [Shopify's variant options guide](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/products/variants).
{% endhint %}

On product pages, the **Variant selector** allows customers to choose the product options they want. The selector can display variants as either a **dropdown list**, **color swatches,** or **chips (boxes)**.

By default, swatches are enabled for options named "Color" and chips are enabled for options named "Size".

## Change variant selector style

***

In the theme editor, go to **Theme settings > Products** to change the style of the variant selector for different product options.

### Dropdown list

***

All product options *except* "Color" and "Size". To use dropdowns, remove the options names from both **Variant options for swatches** and **Variant options for chips**.

### Swatches

***

By default, all product options named "Color" will display swatches. To change which product options should use swatches, add or remove the option names in **Variant options for swatches** in **Theme settings > Products**.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Required** Set up colors for swatches using [custom colors](https://help.fluorescent.co/spark/product-pages/variant-options/variant-swatches/use-custom-colors) or [uploaded images](https://help.fluorescent.co/spark/product-pages/variant-options/variant-swatches/use-custom-images).
{% endhint %}

### Chips (boxes)

***

By default, all product options named "Size" will display chips (rectangles around variant names). To change which product options should use chips, add or remove the option names in **Variant options for chips** in **Theme settings > Products**.

> Learn more about enabling chips and customize their style in the [Variant chips guide](https://help.fluorescent.co/spark/product-pages/variant-options/variant-chips).

## Sibling product swatches

Stiletto's **Sibling products** feature lets you set up variants as individual products with their own images and product details. Sibling products appear as variant swatches that link to separate product pages.
