One of the photographers who captured an image of Gaga? Robert Barbera, who asserts in a new lawsuit that Christian Siriano posted the image on its Instagram without licensing the photo or otherwise seeking and receiving his authorization to do so. 

Raf Simons could not make a swift transition from his role as the creative director of Christian Dior to the head position at Calvin Klein due to a strict non-compete agreement he signed with Dior. MATCHBOX Y-6 SUPERCHARGED BUGATTI TYPE 35Former Celine CEO Marco Gobbetti was only able to commence work at Burberry after his non-compete with the LVMH-owned brand ran out. Laura Kim was at the center of a non-compete war between Carolina Herrera and Oscar de la Renta, when she jumped ship from Herrera to become the co-creative director at de la Renta. And Hedi Slimane notoriously sued Saint Laurent in connection with the non-compete in his contract.

Christian Dior eyewear accounted for a whopping 13 percent of Safilo’s Mint Hot Wheels Team Transport C Assorted Hakosuka 510 Nova, making the quickly approaching end of the Paris-based fashion brand’s licensing deal with the Italian eyewear group a particularly significant one. According to Reuters, Dior’s parent company Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton is expected to assign Dior’s eyewear license “to a joint venture it has with Marcolin, a rival to Safilo” beginning in 2020 in furtherance of its attempt to exercise greater control over the eyewear offerings of its roster of brands and “pocket the profit margins” that had previously been snapped up by third-party licensees.  

Luxury brands are notoriously controlling of their image and the factors that go into creating and maintaining it, which is precisely why in the face of the swiftly growing resale market, “Matrix Harold Radford SC Estate 1959 1 43 MX11705-072 1 43 1 43investors should watch for signs that brands are considering their own resale services,” the Wall Street Journal’s Carol Ryan wrote on the heels of digitally-native luxury consignment company The RealReal’s stock market debut on Friday. Launching their own resale services would give brands “greater control over prices [and availability] in the secondary market and boost their sustainability credentials with millennial shoppers.”

What Christina Binkley called a “hush-hush, mysterious, tradition-bound world,” writing for the Wall Street Journal in 2016, many couture clients tend to shy from revealing their seasonal purchases by way of interviews and brands are routinely vague as to the figures their dedicated fans shell out for these hand-crafted creations, which are made-to-order clothes for private clients.

Lucky Brand and another fashion company have been locked into an 18 year-long legal battle that will get its day before the Supreme Court this fall.
