They deserve a refreshing new brand identity to reflect their new beginnings – one that truly represents their customer for the first time. the sheer pants recall) and the feuds of embattled CEOs. Lululemon has recently survived public fiascos (i.e. In short, it feels like it was designed for a different name – because it was. The ‘A’ doesn’t represent their primary name, the ‘woman’s hair’ interpretation is a bit of a stretch, and the logo doesn’t communicate anything about athletics. The bottom line: this logo doesn’t bear much relation to Lululemon.
It just goes to show how muddled and confused the Lululemon logo is. The Omega has nothing to do with Lululemon, of course – that’s the point. That’s not a positive brand association, and I don’t think the Lululemon logo’s similarity to the Omega symbol does any favors for an athletics brand that has been accused of cult-like behavior. I’m reminded of The Church of Scientology – which also used symbols that incorporated the Greek alphabet. But what does that have to do with anything? The company’s bizarre logo just feels cryptic and quizzical: it makes the audience wonder, am I missing something here? When I asked another friend what she thought the Lululemon logo was, she said, “I think it’s something to do with math.” That association comes from the Lululemon logo’s resemblance to the Greek letter Omega (pictured).

She said it’s an ‘A’ for the Athletica in Lululemon Athletica, and it also represents a woman’s hair and face outline – because the brand’s core demographic is young women. When I noticed a friend carrying a Lululemon bag, I asked her what she thought the logo meant (after all, the consumer’s impression is a brand’s most important quality).
The logo is actually a stylized ‘A’ that was made for the name ‘athletically hip’, a name which failed to make the grade.” This makes for one of the most confusing symbols in modern logo design. According to the company’s website, “The lululemon name was chosen in a survey of 100 people from a list of 20 brand names and 20 logos. The Lululemon logo was actually designed for a different brand name – and it shows.
