Readers may be aware that, together with Giulia Gasparin, I am also currently involved in Fashion Law London, an initiative that was born in 2019 to create opportunities of study and discussion, mostly from an IP and IT law perspective, for all those interested in this emerging field of practice and research.

Over the past couple of years or so, we have organized a number of events investigating a variety of legal and regulatory issues and developments that are relevant to the fashion sector.
On 22 October, Fashion Law London will be holding a new online event entirely devoted to to exploring the principal legal, regulatory, and policy issues affecting and shaping the fashion marketplace.

‘The Fashion Marketplace’ will review IP, consumer and competition law issues and analyze current and forthcoming policy and legislative initiatives.
