Fashion Logo Lollipops: Love It or Hate It?

March 21, 2009

Are you a sucker for high-end fashion brands? I am and I'm not afraid to admit that yes, I covet the classic quilted Chanel handbag with interlocking C logo. However, I'm not sure how I feel about these logo lollipops. Artist Massimo Gammacurta created these designer suckers (that come in a variety of flavors) based on the symbolic initials of the world's most luxurious brands.

What do you think of these outrageous pops? Do you prefer caramel Yves Saint Laurent or grape Gucci?

I'm with Spectra on this one. Tacky and pretentious.

Maybe they should offer these to their own superskinny models!

Besides being tacky IMO, they also just don'y look like something easy to suck on like regular round lollipops. Seems like you may drool all over your hand while trying to suck on it. Damn, that explanation sounded dirty but I swear Im talking about pops!

They would be cute at themed parties...like the season premeire party of Project Runway but I am sure they are overpriced just like all designer duds are...yet they are suckers!

I think that they're supposed to be ironic. I think there's nothing more tacky than wearing logos all over your body. It's like you need people to KNOW that you spent money. And usually, that means that you're carrying a knock-off, anyways.

The irony here is too sweet! Logos are for suckers.

I agree with Spectra - a bit too pretentious. I understand wanting a designer bag that you can keep forever, but you're going to eat the lollipop. It will be gone very fast so what's the point?

I'm not a big fan of being all blinged-out with logos on all your handbags, etc. It's a TAD pretentious for my tastes...so no YSL or Chanel lollipops for me. Although, I can just picture Angelina buying these for her kids...ugh.
