How can we forget people mocking them saying if the tendency of compressing letters continues the next design for the logo will just be a black triangle.

The curvy new logo was launched with ZARA’s new theme for Spring/Summer 2019 campaign. The website also changes by adding new colored features to both men and women’s section. Although the new logo is not welcomed with much positivity.
The most interesting part of Rebranding is that brands gear up for more significance shift? It’s much more than just change in typography.
