Did you know?
American law does not protect most fashion designs. Copyright law views fashion designs not primarily as artistic works, but rather as “useful articles,” and useful things are not granted copyright protection. This rule reflects the fact that useful things are supposed to be the domain of patent law. But clothing designs virtually never qualify for patent protection, because they are almost never “novel” – i.e., truly new – in the way patent law requires.
Copying helps to create trends. It then helps to destroy them: as more and more designers hop on to a trend, the look becomes overdone, and the most fashion-forward consumers hop off. Copying, in other words, accelerates the fashion cycle.
I guess, you really don't have to have a background in fashion to design clothes . . . look at Kim Kardashian???? As long as you have a name . . . you're a designer!!! WTF

Quote Du Jour
"For me, fashion shows are not for the public, they are trade shows for the press. There should be privacy and mystery. There is no excitement about anything anymore as everything is available immediately and all the time — you don’t have to wait for anything. I don’t belong to the generation of spending time on the Internet. I think it’s too fast and too fake. It’s sad because everyone is running after everything, but after what? Everything is too quick. There is no room in your heads for all this information. No one retains anything." -- Isabel Marant
