Our Ideas & Additional Information
(See attached links.) http://senduit.com/ef22ab, http://senduit.com/21bab9, http://senduit.com/123c27
We would like to see a coat of arms/crest option with a female figure/silhouette as the center point. We like simple filigree and swirls and heraldry. Ideally, we would like a logo that could be used in three parts: one in its entirety, one with just the wordmark, and one with just the B. So if the B could stand out at all, it would be preferable. We thought a coat of arms might be perfect for the "complete" logo, and would like to have the shape of a shiba inu dog as the crest at the top of the shield. This is just our idea, so feel free to be creative with other styles. Please see all attached links. Above all, we want the logo to be professional, feminine, fun, glamorous, memorable, and capable of being used in web and print formats.

I'm sorry for the delay, my work computer won't let me comment, only rank. So I will be ranking all day from 8-5:00 cst, then posting comments after 5:30.

In general, these are all beautiful. Thank you for your efforts. I really would like to see my female image (see drawing in link) incorporated. The waist-up image embodies Brazique's function and style. At the moment, it is a tie between #4 and #10. I like the fact that 10 has been responsive to my suggestion of a coat of arms. I would like to see a female image inside or around the shield, and possibly the B somewhere too. Ideally, we would like the shiba inu dog silhouette/profile to sit on the top of the coat of arms as the traditional "crest." (See http://senduit.com/5f7ec7).
#4- I like the swirls and the elegance of this design. Very feminine and whimsical. I would like to see a stronger contrast between the background and text color. I would also like to see the images that I specified be represented here. That's part of the ideal image in my mind right now. A sophisticated, ornate logo, with a hint of whimsy and playfulness.
#10- nice eye-catching use of color. I like that it stands out against the background and uses the coat of arms theme.
#14- This one looks a little too soft, and not striking enough. I'd like a mix of colors/shades that contrast with eachother a bit more.

#15- I'd like to refrain from featuring actual lingerie in the logo. This one depicts a pair of underwear.
#9- I'd like to stay away from just a head shot with hair, because this company makes items for a woman's body. If we could do more of a waist up view, it would be better.

#3, 11, and 12 are too simple. I would like this particular version of our logo to be more expressive and elaborate than just a simple word.

Having a crest for womens lingerie sound kind of masculine...and why would you want to link women and dogs? It could conjure up traditionally bad comparisons.

Dear Intrepidguppy,

Thank you for your opinion. I do understand what you're saying, and can see how that would seem to an outsider. You are right, some coats of arms can look masculine. We have also seen many examples of gorgeous and feminine coats of arms, with swirly "mantling" and a cute "crest." These are different components of a coat of arms: See http://www.fleurdelis.com/coatofarms.htm. If you click "Mantling" on the left side, you can see all the dozens of different styles that can be created. Most of the swirly patterns that have been submitted above could even be made into the mantling. They all look feminine. The crest, or figure at the top of the shield, is traditionally an animal or crown. In our case, we are using an endearing image of this dog. It is just an arbitrary image that goes there, and this dog's shape is the one we have chosen for specific reasons.
I originally was inspired by the women's clothing brand Juicy Couture, which features two west highland white terrier dogs on each side of a set of keys. That was just the jumping off point of my thought process.
I would like to see some experimentation with this idea, but if you have another idea that branches off of this, I would love to see it. We are not locked into this image, but sometimes it helps the designer if they can "peer into the client's brain". I appreciate you asking for clarification and sharing your thoughts.

#37, this particular image of the woman is intriguing; I definitely like it. How about adding some context for it and thinking about a coat of arms around it? Looks great! Thank you.

Thank you all, designers! Your creations are gorgeous!

Here's what I'm thinking:

How about trying for a more 3 dimensional look? And could we please get all of them made on just plain white backgrounds? It makes it easier for me to visualize it in different contexts.

#53: This is the closest so far, but for some reason this image and font brings the Brighton handbag/jewelry company style to my mind, and that seems to connotate an older demographic. Our age demographic is slightly below the 20's and up to 50's.
Also, as far as the mantling on the crest and the font, we would like it to look a bit more "edgy". For font, the big "B" in the shield of #10 is closer to what we want as far as font. It has a stronger presence than the font used in #53. We are bridging the gap between classic undergarments and chic, modern style. So I like the idea of combining traditional elements with some hip and interesting touches.
Perhaps a different font and mantling lines with a 3D feel... in a darker color, even black. What about outlining/shadowing some of the lines in the shield and mantling with a darker color to make it stand out more? #10 has darkly pigmented edges and lines within it, making it "pop". We like this. I also hope that we could use some different shades of color to highlight the different elements of the design. For instance, have a different shade in the woman's background than what she is painted in, rather than just a purple to pink fade across the whole shield and woman. Perhaps two colors in the swirly mantling?

#57- I definitely like where you're headed with the shape and the fancy scrollwork extending out horizontally. However, we won't be needing a motto or any other phrase as you suggested here. Could you possibly put the woman's shape in there?

I appreciate all of your hard work. These are awesome!!

#58-- could we try leaving a plain white background behind the non-logo space of the box please? We will opt not to have any other text here than the brand name. So "fine lingerie" is not necessary. For the image, I'd like a woman from the waist up only. I do like the #37 girl shape alot, in addition to the one I personally drew. Could you possibly digitize my artwork into that shield? I'd like to see what you do with the colors and the lines of her shape. Also, is there anything you can do to make the whole image look more 3 dimensional? Thank you very much.

#53 and #68, could we please try the woman in regular colors, rather than negatives (as in photo processing)? Is there a way to make her look a little more human, and 3 dimensional?

#68, is it possible to follow the breast line that I drew a little more closely? I want to not have the picture quite so explicit when it comes to her shape. You did a great job creating a very natural breast- which looks beautiful. I just think we want to soften the "point" a bit for the sake of modesty. If you look at my drawing, that's the shape I want. Also, if you could stick to a white background context, and experiment with more combinations of colors inside the logo?

Thank you so much!

Thank you all again for the submissions up to this point. Keep them coming, we are making progress!

#117- Pixy- sorry, my work computer is not letting me get to your individual comments page. This looks very pretty. Thank you for entering the contest. We are wanting a 3/4 view of the woman, at least where her back shows. Maybe even a silhouette. She should be waist up only, and nude. I like the font best that is in #111. I like your color scheme. Maybe not so much "squiggly" detail on the sides, and perhaps a different shield shape?
As far as the woman- we are looking for more of an old-fashioned, pin-up type style of drawing, rather than the digital-type Pixar-type illustration. We want it to look like it could have been made with just a paint brush. I'm sorry I don't know the terminology for this type of drawing. See #111 for reference. Thank you for participating. We appreciate having so many talented individuals entering the contest. Good luck!

Hi Pixy,
My computer is still sending me an error message when I try to click on your name- and your name only! So I'm sorry about that. You're on the right track here. I like how you've done the shield and mantling. Could you experiment with different positions for the woman's right arm? It looks like it has been amputated, but that is not your fault. I'm the one who accidentally drew it that way and submitted it to you. I appreciate you helping me. Thank you.
