Logo Controversy: Myntra Faces Allegations of Offensiveness Towards Women, Decides to Redesign Logo
There was a logo controversy involving Myntra in 2021. The controversy arose when a complaint was filed with the Mumbai Police’s Cyber Crime Cell, alleging that the logo used by Myntra was offensive and derogatory towards women.
The logo in question featured a stylized representation of the letter “M” with a curved shape on top that some people interpreted as resembling a woman’s bent arm with a bangle. The complaint argued that the logo depicted a woman in a derogatory and disrespectful manner.
