Is it possible to create a "Hidden" Tag to create collections?

I would like to create a tag that is not visible to the public facing website, is that possible. I would use these tags to create collections, I just don't want these particular tags visible.

 

Use case

I will have 5 collections for each of my designs, Design A T-shirts, LS T-shirts, Sweatshirts, Hoodies, Mugs. I have multiple designs so I would like to create a hidden tag for Design A, B and so on.

 

Any thoughts?

This is an accepted solution.

@ChiefsLab  I think when you create collection we do not have an option for meta object

@ChiefsLab  you can use the approach given by @Emmy_Smith1  or

 

you can create collection based on tags, you will need to add that tag to the product and when you create collection, put condition that collection based on product tags. This way the products which have this particular tag will be shown in the collections.

I don't think I'm explaining this correctly. 

All the tags for a listing show up on the product page that all shoppers can see. I want to create a tag called "Design A" so I can create a collection of all products that are associated with Design A. I don't what the "Design A" tag to show up on the product page with the rest of the tags.

 

I essentially want to create a collection based on the value of a hidden tag (hidden from the publicly accessible product page)

Doesn't matter which one in this case, I just need to know how I do it. Or the "best" way to do it.

@ChiefsLab  please add this css to the very end of your base.css file and check,
Shopify Admin -> Online Store ->Theme -> Edit code -> base.css

 

.t4s-tags-wrapper {display: none;    visibility: hidden;}

@ChiefsLab  single tag do not have any class or id to hide it

So it cannot be done for a single tag?

Can this be done by creating a metaobject and creating a collection based on the value of that metaobject?
