Alright, let’s talk about this Balenciaga logo thing. You know, that fancy brand all them city folks wear.
I ain’t no expert, mind you. I’m just a plain ol’ woman who sees things as they are. This Balenciaga, they got a logo, just like my flour sack got a picture of a rooster on it. Only their rooster is all… fancy-like.
Now, from what I gather, this logo, it ain’t always been the same. It changed, like the seasons. First, they say it was real elegant, you know, like them fancy letters you see on the church windows. Real proper and all. That was for them high-class folks, the ones with the money and the big hats.
Then, I hear, they went and made it simpler. More like… well, like my John Deere hat logo. Bold letters, easy to see. Guess they figured more folks would recognize it that way. Smart, I guess. Gotta get them young’uns to buy your stuff, ain’t that right?
And now, the logo, it’s like… plain. Just letters, sometimes squished together, sometimes not. I seen some shirts with just the B on it. Just a B! Like, you payin’ all that money for a shirt with just one letter? Lord have mercy. But hey, what do I know? Them city folk, they got their ways.
- First logo: fancy and elegant, for the rich folks.
- Second logo: bolder and easier to read, to get more people to notice.
- Now logo: simple, sometimes just a letter, real modern and all.
They say this logo changing thing, it’s all part of a big plan. They call it “branding” or somethin’. Sounds like cattle to me, all them markings and such. But I guess it works. People see that logo, they think “expensive” and “stylish.” Even if it’s just a B on a darn t-shirt.
And this Balenciaga, they ain’t just selling clothes, mind you. They sellin’ a dream, they say. A dream of bein’ fancy and rich. And that logo, that’s like the key to that dream. You wear that B, you feelin’ like you belong with them fancy folks. Even if you just ate beans for supper last night.
It’s kinda like puttin’ on your Sunday best for church. You wanna look good, you wanna feel good. Only this ain’t church, it’s… well, it’s Balenciaga. Same idea, different place.
And this dream, it ain’t cheap. Heard tell them Balenciaga clothes cost a pretty penny. More than my old mule, that’s for sure. But folks buy ‘em. They buy that logo, that dream. It’s a powerful thing, that little B.
Managing a fancy brand like this, it’s gotta be harder than milkin’ a cow on a cold mornin’. You gotta keep them rich folks happy, and you gotta get them young’uns to buy your stuff too. You gotta keep that logo lookin’ good, keep it fresh and new, but not too different, you know? It’s a tricky business, that’s for sure. A real headache if you ask me.
I tell you what, I wouldn’t trade my overalls and my worn-out boots for no fancy Balenciaga outfit. But hey, to each their own. If folks wanna spend their hard-earned money on a shirt with just a B on it, that’s their business. Me, I’ll stick with my rooster on my flour sack. At least I know what I’m gettin’.
So, that’s my take on this Balenciaga logo thing. It’s changed over time, it’s simple now, and it’s expensive. It’s all part of a big plan to sell a dream. And folks are buyin’ it, hook, line, and sinker. Well, good for them, I say. Good for them.
