Are you 100% sure of that, that the Etsy people were copying the one she’s wearing? And the same, i assume, with t-shirts? 
 

Do you think Locals Only leased their design, with some alterations, to her and her merchandising team? Doesn’t it seem more likely her team could come up with its own design? It’s not as if the LO design is extraordinary. 
 

Maybe someone should contact Locals Only. 
 

Thank you. 

Yes, I'm 100% sure.

 

All Etsy ones and the ones on the internet are copying. The original Venice jacket has Locals Only written on the back.

 

I checked everywhere at that time on the internet, and Locals Only did not have any design with DNC on it.

By the way working link for Ebbest Field - Locals Only design (probably counterfeit) https://a2jackets.com/product/venice-locals-only-work-jacket

Another helpful clue may be: how often has Lana been seen wearing her own merchandise in the past?

Top things I love about DYKTTATUOB 

 

1. The juxtaposition of “handmade” and “man-made”

2. the verse with the Hotel California reference which is so beautifully depicted

3. The end of the bridge - the build up combined with “come on baby you can thrive” gives you the impression that the song will suddenly turn hopeful and then SHE CRUSHES US WITH “But I can’t” damn

Doesn’t that mean, then, that Lana has stolen their design or trademark?

Lana could tell us that DNC means nothing and she just put it on a jacket and I would still want her to release it as merch

Or maybe they custom designed it for her, we don't know.

Then someone must contact them and see what information we can squeeze out of them.

Wait, I remembered that the director of LDR Village said that it was custom made and the meaning will be revealed in the future.

Hhhmmm….then maybe we will see a song with those initials on the new album or it was made for a song cut from COCC or BB, depending on when we saw Lana wearing it.

Omg it looks like the mystery of DNC may last forever.

 

Someone on atrl asked "Did we ever find out if the DNC on her jacket actually means something? Did @BlackoutZone address this and is just saving for her to reveal?"

 

and BOZ just said "I don't recall this at all"

 

 

lana wearing a DNC jacket which means nothing knowing that her fans will speculate about it for months

Probably the title of her 10th album 👀

[Fingertips 72,098]

Someone on ATRL said "obviously the jacket doesn't mean anything. she isn't Taylor Swift"

 

and, you know, they were right

Why not Democratic National Committee? Doesn’t LDR profess to be a Democrat, and she comes from a likely Democrat family, as 80% of people in New York State are? That’s what DNC means to most people in America. 

Surprisingly Democratic National Committee/Convention is the one thing we know it doesn't mean according to the Director of the LDR Village lol I think he told @Elle something like "i can't reveal the meaning but I can say it doesn't stand for Democratic National Convention"

 

 

Also from what I remember, he/LDR Village is the one who custom made the jacket for Lana 

 

Will the mystery ever be solved....

[WaitForLife 5,012]

Imagine If we get a BTD outtake on the album 

[ChaoticLipster 23,800]

Probably something personal like names of people, Danielle, Nikki, Chloe

[The Grants 13,003]

I love the background ladies voices they fit lana so well and I totally hope they have more presence on the record AMEN 🙏 

[fishtails 12,879]

If anyone is curious about the DNC lore here's the original post about the Polaroids: 

 

And here is what Elle shared about the conversation she had with the LDR Village guy:

 

"The director of LDR Village just informed me that he was the one who made her mysterious DNC jacket! When I asked about the meaning, he said, "All I can say is not democratic national convention haha. I'll keep you posted once I can actually say something." When I mentioned that fans would love for it to be included in a future merch drop, he replied, "oh it might!" "
