What is an Attribute Set in Magento 2?
Magento 2 attribute set is a collection of attributes that apply to certain kind of products. You use attribute sets when creating products in your store so that you don't need to assign every attribute one by one.
e.g. the Magento 2 attribute set Top can have color, size, material, and weather attributes; the Magento 2 attribute set Bag can have color, weight, and material, etc.
This simplified the product creation, since you apply an attribute set to a certain product and fill out the attribute options.
There is no limit to the number of attribute sets you can have in Magento. So, you can create as many of them as you need and adjust them in the way that suits your strategy.
How to Create Magento 2 Attribute Set?

1. Navigate to Stores > Attributes > Attribute Set and press the Add Attribute Set button.
2. Insert the Name of the attribute set.
3. Choose an already existing attribute set that the new one will be Based On.
Don't forget to Save the attribute set and move to the editing step.
How to Edit Product Attribute Set in Magento 2?
Once you create a new Magento attribute set, you will see the attribute set edit page. Here you can edit the Attribute Set Name, the attribute Groups, and Unassigned Attributes.

Besides, you can also create and delete any group right on the editing page by using the Add New and Delete Selected Group buttons. Once you have finished don't forget to press the Save button.
How to Change Attribute Set in Bulk?
