From the sketch to the final consumer, protect your rights

The Fashion Industry is in a state of constant change, as are the enormous variety of rights related to this sector.

Fashion plays a very big part in our lives, much more than we could ever imagine. The world of Fashion involves not only designers or models, but also agents, influencers, marketing and advertising specialists, small and medium companies, and big companies too. All of these groups of professionals are connected to different fields such as the manufacturing, distribution, transportation or advertising, each of them with their own rights and obligations, areas of influence and conflicts.

It is for this precise reason that it becomes very necessary to receive a vast legal support in all areas which encompass every single aspect related to the fashion world. Simply because we want to protect our designs and our rights, simply because we want to protect Fashion.
