(image courtesy of wwd.com)Say it isn't so! But it wouldn't be the first time. Gwen Stefani slapped the popular, trend-setting (and cheap!) retail chain with a lawsuit in 2007. Anthropologie followed suit that December. Now, Trovata's lawsuit is going to trial against Forever 21. According to Women's Wear Daily, "Under current law, only original prints or graphics on clothes can be copyrighted — as they are considered artwork — and Trovata’s suit focuses on Forever 21’s copying of its unique button placements, decorative stitching, fabric patterns and other details." Oh no, do we all need to find a new store to find twin shirts to our Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf's lusts?
