Hello friends! The Ladybug team here with some fun and exciting trends to make your product packaging stand out in 2024 - the Year of the Dragon!
As you know, Tet is the biggest holiday in Vietnam. When Tet comes, everybody wants to buy the best and most beautiful gifts. So the packaging design for your products will be very important if you want them to sell well!
Don't worry - we are packaging design experts. Our team will explain the trends in simple ways so you can understand how to make awesome packages. Let's get started!
Trend 1: Lucky Colors 🎨
The dragon is a symbol of power and good fortune in Vietnamese culture. When your customers see package colors connected to luck and prosperity, they will feel happy and want to buy your product!
Some lucky colors for 2024 Tet packaging are:
- Red - passion, success
- Gold - wealth, prestige
- Green - growth, health
You can make the whole package in these colors or just use them for accents. Red and gold ribbons or seals will look great!
Trend 2: Dragon Imagery 🐲
Adding actual dragon images to your packaging will get people excited for Tet and the Year of the Dragon. Some ideas:
- A powerful dragon on the front
- Cute baby dragons playing
- Clouds and dragon shapes in the background
But don't use aggressive or scary dragons - go for friendly and cheerful! You want to bring good vibes.
Trend 3: Shiny & Glittery ✨
Who doesn't love shiny, glittery and holographic packaging? Use:
- Metallic paper or accents
- Holographic seals or stickers
- Spot UV or foil stamping effects
This makes the gift box or bottle look expensive and special! Perfect for premium Tet gifts.
Trend 4: Unique Shapes 🎁
Instead of basic boxes, try out unique shapes inspired by the dragon:
- Long cylinder tubes
- Bottles/jars with dragon tails
- Boxes with dragon scales
Also shapes related to other Tet symbols like circles, fans, or lanterns. Your special packaging will stand out!
Trend 5: Calligraphy & Patterns 🖋
Add an artistic touch with Vietnamese calligraphy like "Thịnh vượng" (prosperity) or "May mắn" (good fortune). Brush stroke patterns reminiscent of dragon scales or clouds also look great.
You can overlay these designs on top of solid colors or gradients. Hand-drawn details make the package more authentic.
Trend 6: Premium Finishing 🏵️
Take your packaging to the next level with luxurious finishing touches like:
- Embossing or debossing - textured dragon scales
- Spot UV coating - sectional glossy effects
- Foil stamping - metallic dragon accents
- Soft-touch lamination - velvety finish
This makes your product feel expensive and valuable!
Trend 7: Sustainability 🍃
Eco-friendly and sustainable packaging is becoming more popular. Use materials like:
- Recycled paper/cardboard
- Biodegradable plastic
- Plant-based ink
- Natural fibers like jute or bamboo
Show customers you care about the environment. A little dragon made of recycled materials would be very cute!
