Now, I gotta admit, the idea kinda appeals to me. Like, we’re so bombarded with logos these days. It’s like, you *have* to advertise for these brands just by existing. And don’t even get me started on the whole “status symbol” thing. It’s all kinda… well, it’s exhausting, innit?
So, a Dolce & Gabbana bag *without* the D&G plastered all over it? Could be chic, could be kinda subversive, could just be… a bag. Maybe it’s for people who are, like, *already* so rich and famous they don’t *need* to shout about it. Or maybe it’s just for people who, like me, are chronically indecisive about branding.
But then again, isn’t the whole *point* of buying a Dolce & Gabbana bag… the Dolce & Gabbana-ness of it all? The flashy-flashy, the extravagant designs, the whole shebang? I mean, look at all this info! “Dolce Lovers” being swapped for Nescafé pods? It’s all about branding, baby!
Maybe it’s a secret, like, a “if you know, you know” kinda thing. Like, the design itself is so undeniably Dolce & Gabbana that you don’t *need* the logo. Or maybe it’s just a plain ol’ mistake. Like, someone at the factory had a *really* bad day. Who knows?
Plus, and I’m just brainstorming here, maybe it’s a sustainable move? Less branding, less waste, more… minimalist chic? Okay, maybe I’m reaching. But still!
Honestly, I’m kinda rambling now. See, I started thinking about the ECCPLAN thing in São Paulo (Resíduo Zero, so cool!), and then my brain went off on a tangent about conscious consumerism and whether buying any designer bag, logo or no logo, is even justifiable in the first place. Sigh.
