Autentico G&B - a photo on Flickriver

Autentico G&B

             #MacroMondays
 #Tag

Yes, I'll admit it, I have a box where I keep tags that are special, elaborate, or just nice. Some for decades, apparently, just like this "D&G" Dolce Gabbana tag that was on... When I found it in the "tag box", it was instantly obvious why I kept it because it has this nicely shiny, iridescent holographic sticker. But where on Earth did I get a Dolce & Gabbana tag from when there are no Dolce & Gabbana clothes in my wardrobe and there never will be because the prices are insane? This went around in my head during the entire photoshoot when, finally, it came back to my mind: the belt. The posh-looking belt I bought some 20 or maybe even 25 years ago (at the KaDeWe at a much-reduced price). A thin thingy made of light grey leather combined with a braided brass/leather cord (a little longer than the leather part) that looks as weird as it sounds, and I never quite knew how to wear it correctly. I bought it for an occasion that required evening attire, something I didn't have back then and still don't have in my wardrobe today. I remember that I made myself a pair of light grey trousers for said occasion which I combined with a white, vintage tuxedo shirt, and the belt just seemed to match all that weirdness. 

So this is the tag that was attached to the belt. When I looked at the images, I noticed the lettering "Autentico", in capital letters, on a few of the many Gs. If you zoom in, you can see that lettering on the small G on the right that sits in the opening of the big G.

My photo is a single shot taken in High-res mode because originally, I'd wanted to tightly crop in on the sticker but then decided to show the entire holographic sticker and how it sits on the tag. The upper part has another D&G logo stitched in black onto the fabric and a brown leather piece with a hole for the string. I tried some bokeh shots with the Laowa 50mm Ultra Macro but then decided to go for a straightforward, all-over sharp presentation.

The holographic sticker's size is 1,4 x 1,4 cm/0,39 x 0,39 inches.

HMM, Everyone, and have a nice week ahead!
