Go Logo
Fashion’ s love affair with logos doesn’ t seem to be ending anytime soon. A mainstay across collections since the past four seasons, logos turned out to be bigger, bolder and much more jarring this time around.
Everything was drenched in‘ Fendi’ as they doubled their‘ F’ and painted the monogram in a new colourway of beige and brown. From tights, fur sweatshirts, trench coats, and even baguette bags, the letters were reluctant and hard to miss on the runway.
Emporio Armani kept the house logo in control and expressed the multiple logos, varying from their symbolic eagle, to the obvious abbreviations of EA, or directly using their full name, over their garments and strategically incorporating them over belt buckles and waistbands.
Reviving the iconic medusa head logos on retro jumpsuit and silk shirts, Versace’ s flag-bearer Donatella, paid a tribute to her late brother Gianni by showcasing an array of 1990s style for her S / S’ 18 collection.
