America r n b
singer Rihanna has won a two-year multi-million pound legal battle with Topshop
after they unlawfully used her image on a popular T-shirt sold to thousands of
fans.
She sued
Topshop's parent company Arcadia for £3.3million ($5.5million) over the
clothing,
In 2013 her
legal team successfully argued her fans, who saw her as a fashion icon, would
have falsely thought she had endorsed the garment sold by the high street
fashion store. Today Lord Justice David Kitchin said:
'People could
be deceived into buying the t-shirt perhaps believing it was authorised by
Rihanna.'Topshop sold the t-shirt without Rihanna's approval and this amounted
to passing off.
