Abstract

This chapter discusses the protection of fashion through design law, focusing on EU Law. It first introduces the relationship between fashion and the concept of design and the requirements for protection and registration. The chapter then explores the concept of Unregistered Community Design. Design ownership within the fashion industry and infringement, a significant concern in the fashion industry, are also examined. The chapter also addresses contemporary issues in the fashion industry, such as the intersection of artificial intelligence and design law in fashion, and discusses the implications of 3D printing technology in fashion and design law. It also explores the relationship between fashion and traditional knowledge, shedding light on the conflict between modern fashion trends and age-old traditional designs. The chapter further investigates the relationship between fashion law and the circular economy, focusing on sustainability in fashion. Lastly, overlapping intellectual property protections for fashion under EU law are discussed.
