CATWALK JUSTICE: WWD’s Legal Eagle On Getting Into The Business
As regular readers might have noticed, there was no CATWALK JUSTICE column last Friday. On Twitter, I chalked this up to #NYFW.

CATWALK JUSTICE: This Is What Happens When You Bore Nina Garcia
Since CATWALK JUSTICE devoted last week’s entire column to the Louboutin v. YSL case, there’s quite a bit of fashion law news to catch up on. Much of it, however, seems oddly familiar. There seem to be three lessons to take from this week’s events: 1) fashion law history is doomed to repeat itself; 2) where you can’t sue to get what you want, at least try going the contract route (even if it’s likely to fail, you may get publicity for a ridiculous offer); 3) and models (or in some cases, their parents) are a lot tougher than they look — at least, in the courtroom.
Everything You Need To Understand The Louboutin v. YSL Lawsuit

Let us know what you think (unless you don’t like it, in which case, you can just go ahead and leave for vacation.)
