he official Gucci logo hasn’t changed much since the 1930s, when one of Gucci’s sons recreated his father’s mark. Aldo Gucci designed the interlaced double G logo, representing his father’s initials. According to Aldo, it also represented the links of a bracelet, demonstrating luxury.

Originally, the Louis Vuitton logo was designed in order to help protect the authenticity of the brand’s products, and this is a role that the logo still plays today.

The first shoe to be decorated with Christian Louboutin’s signature red sole was actually a prototype which had a buckle inspired by a Warhol flower. As the story goes, Louboutin had a eureka moment when he saw his assistant painting her nails red. He borrowed the polish to lacquer the sole of the shoe, and the rest is history.
