Wearing the logo of a particular brand signifies sophistication, success, and a certain status in the society. These logos are in one way the outward marking of one’s sartorial tribe revealing hints about their personal style, their value in luxury items and how affluent they are.Logos hold the power of instant brand recognition and particular logos over the past few decades to a century have become a strong symbol of luxury and affluence. When it comes to luxury fashion houses, their legacy is defined with their logos and the unique stories behind them. Here are some stories of the most iconic luxury fashion brand logos.
The Chanel logo is known to be designed by Coco Chanel herself in 1925. It is also one logo that has been unchanged since its first design. Chanel’s double Cs logo design is on one hand rumoured to come from the insignia on the Chateau de Cremat, a vineyard villa in South of France where Chanel stayed for a while on the other hand it is also said that the double Cs of the logo are derived from quasi-Celtic interlocking stained glass window design at the Aubazine Chapel – known to have housed an orphanage where the designer had spent part of her youth.

To increase the Jo Malone London presence in Asia, Pan Wang and Shaniya Shabrach-Ortiz created a pop up store for Jo Malone London in Shanghai. The mission behind the Jo Malone London pop up store concept is to educate potential customers and also reaching the younger generation to leave a lasting impact that will increase the penetration of our brand in China.
I spent this summer as a design intern at The Choudhary International Leather Footwear Company. Here's a glimpse of how this summer internship taught me 'the business of designing.'
3. Brand verbal DNA
1. Iconic
2. Sharp outline
3. Seductive patch
4. Art deco
5. Rock’n’roll
6. Shoulder-fetish
7. Timeless
8. Spotlight protection
9. Parisian to bone
4. Iconic
By the word Icon of course I
mean the brand founder Yves
Saint Laurent. An exquisite
designer with dazzling career
and enormous talent, but a very
troubled man. Crumbled with his
addiction to drugs and his
muses. Looking closely at the
rebellious collections of the
current creative director ,I see a
desire to incorporate into Yves
twisted mind.
5. Sharp outline
YSL is all about masculine
aesthetics. Colors are sharply
outlined, expressive and rather
dark. Campaigns have
minimalistic graphics. So have
the boutiques
6. Seductive patch
From the beginning
of the brand YSL
was presenting
courageous and
controversial
designs. Now Hedi
Slimane is following
his predecessor
promoting the
nudity not only in his
work but also as a
minimalism in stores
and campaigns
7. Art deco
background
Often Yves Saint Laurent himself
paid tribute to artists like for
example Piet Mondrian.
Nowadays repeatedly campaign
shoots, boutiques and runways
take place in parisian
tenements, thereby referring to
classical architecture
8. Rock’n’roll
Saint Laurent involvement with
music goes were beyond trend
setting. Creative director, Hedi
Slimane not only inspires by
rock, but also collaborates with
singers, which can sometimes
lead to controversy. Social
media content is basically only
about videos with clothes more
as a background to the
storytelling
9. Shoulder-fetish
Emphasizing the shoulder part
and underling the waist is very
characteristic and crucial in
brand designs. Looking way
back to the beginning of YSL we
can see clearly the recurrent
and coherent silhouette the
creative directors want to
approach
10. Timeless
The mansion has always
concentrated on quality, not
quantity. . Life lasting products
are their main domain. So as the
solid-built flagship stores
Fashion fades, but style is eternal
-Yves Saint Laurent
12. Parisian to
bone
Saint Laurent is valued origin
combined with modernity. The marble
boutique interior is mixed with the
parisian tenements. Big part of most
recent designs resemble old ideas
used by the brand founder. Over the
years, even though the office have
moved to LA,the brand is coherent
with it’s desired client-parisians. Of
course with the years passing by, the
parisians have changed, but the
mansion keeps up with them. The
effortless look, typical for the parisian
shows off in designs, campaigns and
on runways
13. Brand non verbal DNA
1. Leather
2. The bow
3. Shininess
4. Black and white
5. Logo mania
14. Leather
This texture fulfills the
rock image of the
brand. Also symbolizes
good quality and is
being used for all
leather goods including
iconic bags
15. The bow
The most distinguishable sign off
all, which sends the message to
the customer. Young and rebel
yet always classy.
16. Shininess
Word shiny in case of Saint
Laurent stands for four things:
1. Beauty products
2. Silk materials
3. Blinding from logos’
goldenness
4. Flagship stores interior details
17. Black&white
The newest creative director has
limited color pallet. Basically
most of the pieces are
black&white with some red and
leo print if it’s a "lucky season".
The reason of such small shade
diversity is a comeback to more
masculine and strong look. Hedi
Slimane keeps everything
coherent and consistent his
shoots, interior.
18. Logo mania
Most off the brands have been
forced to keep up with the
market by showing off its self.
Naturally, the logo mania caught
up subtly this brand as well.
22. Multi-structurality
Lately a interior designer have
shown me the new trend,
personally, I find inspiring.
Placing different structures,
patterns and textures next to
each other results in elegance,
modernity and cleanness, very
YSl in my opinion
24. Social media
YSL Instagram is not
established enough.
The brand in my
opinion should
activate on various
kinds of social
media . YSL beauty
has many apps and
it’s being in the
internet is way more
developed. Maybe
the mansion should
consider an app, as
many customers
are starting to
purchase online.
25. Improvement of social
media (suggestions)
• standardization of color palette (if black&white ,
stick to it)
• well-thought-out content
• regular motion on social media
• launching an app
27. Marble
I relish the way
Saint Laurent used
and mixes marble
and leather
together. Maybe
the brand should
consider brand
extension
(furnitures,
stationery) or
exploit marble print
as a pattern
