KORS SUED OVER INSPIRATION NAMECHECK
The estate of artist/designer TONY DUQUETTE is suing MICHAEL KORS over claims he used the late California style icon to help sell his new Kors Resort Collection.
Kors namechecked Duquette when he launched his new clothing line in 2008, claiming he had been inspired by his hero - and the dead designer's family members are far from happy about the connection.
The estate has filed a trademark infringement lawsuit against Kors, alleging the designer to the stars infringed on the Duquette name and trademark by referring to him.
Duquette died from a heart attack in 1999.
