Four years ago I wrote a blog post about fine Joomla! 1.5 templates that had special support for VirtueMart 1.1. Now that Joomla! 2.5 and VirtueMart 2 are around since a while, you can find new templates worth to be checked out. The following list just gives an overview and is not complete (and will be frequently updated). Ask the template club of your choice if they can do a Joomla! template with overrides for VirtueMart, so this list can grow...

Conclusion
Now with Joomla! 2.5 and VirtueMart 2 the template creators have come up with a lot of possibilities to customize and style your site with more freedom than Joomla! 1.5 and VirtueMart 1.1 could give. VM 2 has brought overrides and gives developers who already know Joomla! overrides an easier way to customize views and structure of VirtueMart pages.
