VALUE-CONSCIOUS SHOPPING REMAINS A PRIORITYThe cost of living crisis continues to shape Mother’s Day spending habits, with shoppers prioritizing affordability. 49% of UK consumers say they are cutting back on non-essential spending due to financial concerns (Mintel, 2024). Many are looking for budget-friendly yet meaningful gifts, including sentimental cards, DIY presents, and at-home experiences. 52% of UK shoppers actively seek promotional offers before making a purchase (Statista, 2024), making discounts a key driver in gift selection.MOTHER'S DAY TRENDS2. RECOGNISING BURNOUT & SELF-CARE NEEDSMothers continue to experience higher levels of burnout, with 87% of UK mums reporting feeling exhausted or overwhelmed (Parenthood PhD, 2024). Brands are extending Mother's Day messaging beyond a single day, promoting products that encourage self-care. The UK self-care industry is set to grow by 6.8% annually, reaching £12.3 billion by 2026 (Euromonitor, 2024), reflecting increased consumer interest in wellness-focused gifts such as spa vouchers, relaxation kits, and mindfulness journals.4. THE GIFT OF TIME – TOGETHER OR ALONEMothers are split between wanting more quality time with loved ones (58%) or simply time to themselves (42%) on Mother’s Day (Ipsos, 2024). This dual trend has led to brands offering two narratives—one focused on shared experiences, such as family brunch kits or memory books, and the other on solo relaxation, including wellness retreats or subscription boxes. The UK subscription box market is projected to grow by £1.5 billion by 2027, with self-care and relaxation themes leading the way (Barclays, 2024).5. TECH & AI-ENHANCED GIFTS ENTER THE MARKETTech-integrated gifting is on the rise, with 40% of UK shoppers interested in AI-powered or smart gifts for special occasions (Statista, 2024). Digital photo frames, AI-powered wellness assistants, and interactive books are gaining popularity. The UK smart home market is projected to grow by £3.2 billion by 2027, indicating strong consumer demand for tech-enhanced gifts (PwC, 2024).SEASONAL TRENDSOver the last few years, we have seen some key trends come through in the Mother's Day season. From Danilo's perspective, we have seen brands such as Despicable Me, Peppa Pig, Only Fools and Horses and Mrs Brown's Boys perform well. As you will see from the designs displayed in this brochure, we have incorpoated this feedback into our 2026 selection.From an external point of view, please see below an outline of some of the more apparent Mother's Day trends that we have seen in the UK over the past year, and what may continue in the next year or so,3. PRIORITISING EXPERIENCES OVER MATERIAL GIFTSExperience-based gifts have overtaken material presents in popularity, with 64% of UK consumers preferring to gift experiences over physical products (YouGov, 2024). Afternoon Tea, spa days, and creative workshops are among the top experience gifts for Mother’s Day, while Google searches for “Mother’s Day experience gifts” have increased by 32% year-on-year (Google Trends, 2024). Retailers that prioritize experience-based offerings—such as vouchers and bundle deals—will attract more shoppers looking for meaningful alternatives.
