In this litigation, it’s a case of douche versus designer – go Team Marc!!
One can see why Marc Jacobs filed for trademark infringement; the bags share nearly identical knotted straps, side pockets, size, stitched name logos and nameplates. MJ is going full stop on this one – he’s not only suing for copyright infringement, but is claiming unfair competition.
Let’s hope he takes dirty Audigier to the cleaners.

I don’t think he needs to worry about competition-the people who buy MBMJ are in a whole different level of class than those who buy Ed Hardy (who, well, have NO level of class).

02.09.10 @ 10:53 amJACOBS SHOULD SUE THE HELL OUT OF HIM, THIS IS NOT THE ONLY DESIGN AUDIGIER HAS STOLEN FROM JACOBS. HE HAS ALSO STOLEN FROM ED HARDY AND HE IS A RACIST. THERE IS NOT ONE BLACK FEMALE IN ANY OF THESE TATTOOS THAT AUDIGIER DISPLAYS ON MILLIONS OF CLOTHING. JACOBS WILL PREVAIL !
