Fashion Designers Deserve The Same Protection as Other Creatives.

NEW YORK, United States — Across international jurisdictions, fashion design protection is one of the least harmonised areas of intellectual property law.

Fashion Designers Deserve The Same Protection as Other Creatives

While designers’ names and logos are almost universally covered by trademark law, the physical articles of apparel and accessories to which they are attached often have no protection at all.

The Future of Retail: Reinventing and Preserving the In-Store Experience. Consider retailing a two-pronged challenge: On the one hand, retailers must accommodate the increasingly mobile consumer. On the other hand, the traditional retailer can't ignore the need to drive that consumer to a physical store.

As highlighted in our previous post on the future of retail, there is a flurry of activity surrounding online retail initiatives right now, with particular emphasis on mobile. Mobile payments in particular are getting a lot of attention as retailers figure out ways to transfer the shopping experience to every sort of handheld device.
