Are Logo Handbags On The Way Out?
Are logo handbags dead? Are Louis Vuitton Monogram canvas and Gucci Signature canvas things of the past? The question of whether or not they're still relevant has been floating around for a while, and you can probably guess our opinion. We'll always love our LV and GG covered bags. They have heritage, unmistakable panache, and gorgeous craftsmanship. Our customer data tells us that we're not alone, and logo handbags continue to sell. However, we've seen some industry statistics showing that the days of mid-priced logo handbags (like Michael Kors) are over. It wasn't so long ago that the MK logo was everywhere. For that matter, so was Coach's C-emblazoned Signature canvas. But these mid-priced brands' newer styles are turning away from logos in favor of solid color leather and saffiano leather. What's changing the face of the logo handbag market?
In a nutshell, change is coming from millennials and individualistic fashion. Look on Who What Wear and The Sartorialist, and you'll see a seismic shift in the ways people dress. Street fashion pics depict thrift store finds worn with Chanel bags, jeans distressed every which way, and a bevy of deconstructed silhouettes. Mid-priced logo handbags don't fit anywhere in this picture. Heritage logos from brands like Louis Vuitton and Gucci most certainly do, but how? Because of their histories, LV and GG logos have automatic elite statuses. There will always be customers for what heritage brands have to offer. When you carry an LV Speedy, it has a way of making you magically feel pulled together. For this reason logo handbags will always have their places in fashion. They are instantly recognizable and total fashion classics, but can they be freshened up a bit?
Absolutely! Millennials are proving that there's room for reinterpretations of these logo classics, and that they can be worn in playful ways. Whether paired with cut-off jeans or adorned with stickers, logo-emblazoned bags can be styled in ways that breathe new life into them. We love the lighthearted ways that traditional designer bags are being worn now, and hope this millennial-inspired individualism continues... we have a hunch it will.
Let us know! Do you think logo handbags are fading? What do you think of how they're being worn in street fashion?
Let customers speak for us
I have purchased many items here and have loved them all! Most recently I found a dream Chanel chocolate brown lambskin Diana! Brooke, and Amber are amazing and so helpful!
As usual, I go in to look at the merchandise. I always go on the website first to view what I will be most interested in seeing. They’re so much fun and helpful. Even though I have my favorites, I look at EVERYTHING. They just let me do my thing. They know me and just check on me periodically while I go about my business 😍.
I always enjoy the excursion❣️
I bought my third bag from Couture. This one is a Chanel. I love it. As usual their merchandise is exquisite
I have purchased many items from Couture. It is my favorite place to shop.
Another marvelous experience with Couture Boutique. I always wanted the Chanel watch with diamonds, the “it” watch and Catherine personally helped me, sent me the two extra links and the watch is absolutely gorgeous, for literally half price from what it sells for at the Chanel boutique. Great merchandise and also great service. I only wish I was closer to Tampa, but I am in the Bay Area. Thanks again for this new addition to my collection.
I decided I need to buy myself a birthday gift and found the most beautiful Gucci satchel. It is like new and perfect size. Couldn’t be happier
A wonderful experience!
The best service and the best prices on top brands. I will definitely be back.
Amazing experience from start to finish. All my questions/concerns were professionally dealt with:) Amber even sent additional information to help me make my purchase. I love the bag & the people who made it possible. Will be back for more…
I was contacted by one of the employees Brooke after letting her know months ago that I was interested in a long Chanel necklace. She contacted me as soon as it came into the shop and sent me pictures, and I went there in person and fell in love with the necklace and purchased it. It was presented in a Chanel box. Everything that I’ve ever purchased from the store is in immaculate shape. The service is impeccable. I love the way they display their purses, shoes, and accessories the store. If they don’t have the bag that you’re looking for, just let Brooke know and she will let you know as soon as it comes into the store. You can’t ask for better service.
I love this place. Prices are realistic for vintage, not like Dillards prices which are too high for vintage brands. Come check it out. You won’t be disappointed. Customer service is always great!
I have purchased several items and each one has not disappointed. They have all been in perfect condition and the pictures and descriptions are always spot on. They have a very quick delivery and that is one of the reasons I keep returning!
The girls ALWAYS know exactly what I want and contact me when a piece comes in. I've NEVER been disappointed with nearly FIFTY purchases thus far.
The ladies at the store were very knowledgeable, personable, and attentive. They worked with me to get my wife the perfect 20th anniversary gift. And even help me pack it up for shipping. Wonderful experience. It will certainly be back to deal with them in the future.
I have been in search for gold jewelry and Couture has delivered in many levels. Thank you Ladies❤️❤️❤️
I had a great experience with a first time order! My Louis Vuitton wallet is gorgeous and looks brand new. It matches my LV bag perfectly. It arrived quickly- about 48 hours after ordering! Amazing service and quality. I will be ordering again!
