Margiela t shirts in a vacuum sealed bad. Gin and a motor oil can. Loaf of bread in a box. We're fully in the age of chaos packaging which is a term coined by my friend Michael Mirofleur last year. Regardless of category, chaos packaging has become a way for brands no distance themselves at a time when it feels like all the products look the same because they are. Arguably, the most important part about chaos packaging is that you create tension with the product itself. Pairing things that shouldn't go better, but somehow they do. It makes your brain pause long enough to realize that something is out of place, which only gets you more invested in the brand experience. So using thoughtful designs, quality materials, and a cohesive unboxing experience that actually tells a story all matters.
