Recall that Rihanna outraged the sale of T-shirts with its image. Moreover, "Top Rihanna" was in the title of ill-fated thoughts. The singer has tried to negotiate many months with the Topshop peaceful way, but the representatives of the brand did not agree to make concessions. They explained that they bought the rights to the photo from the photographer and thereby did not violate the law. The judge agreed with them, but considered that the concrete case should be considered from another point of view.
According to the court decision, the sale of such T-shirts with such a name can be misleading buyers. Consumers may mistakenly decide that Rihanna personally took part in creating a top or at least gave its consent to its sale. And this, in turn, can harm her reputation in the "Fashion Sphere". "The fact of sales of T-shirts depicting a famous person is not illegal, if this does not follow anything more," the judge decided. - However, the sale of this particular image of this particular person, which was used on this thing and was sold in the store on these specific conditions, a completely different case. I believe that the sale of TopShop of this Top "Rihanna" without its consent is illegal. "
The judge also added that according to the UK law, the use of this photo, let it be done by Paparazzi without the resolution of the star, is not an invasion of her private life.
