Fashion & Intellectual Property

Fashion is a three trillion dollar a year industry with a 100% participation rate. So how do companies like Louis Vuitton, Ralph Lauren, Gucci, and Christian Louboutin promote their brands globally while still protecting their designs? To what extent are creators, from individual fashion designers to million-dollar brands, protected under intellectual property law? How do you balance protecting IP with fostering innovation? Lawyers, law professors, and industry experts discuss the role of intellectual property in the fashion industry, explaining three recent cases that continue to spark debate on design protection in the United States. #Fashion #IP #Trademark #FashionIndustry #design #SCOTUS #SCOTUSbrief #SupremeCourt #IntellectualProperty #FashionIP #Copyright #CopyrightAct #SCUTScase #law #parody #LouisVuitton #ChristianLouboutin #YvesSantLaurent OFFICIAL SELECTION 2018 Seattle Fashion Film Festival -Winner, Best Documentary 2018 Madrid International Film Festival - Nominee for Best Short Documentary - Nominee for Best Director of a Short Documentary 2018 Film Miami Fest - Semi-Finalist 2018 Aesthetica Short Film Festival 2018 Chelsea Fashion Film Festival 2018 Fashion Film Festival Chicago 2018 DAMN!
