Get Off 'Er Ass

Filed under: Fashion Smashion > Legal Matters

juicy.jpg

Juicy Couture filed a lawsuit in Manhattan on Tuesday against Victoria's Secret for 'stealing' Juicy's idea of slapping a brand name on the backsides of sweatpants.

You know, cuz that's SUCH an original idea!

"The similarities are not inadvertent and are designed to capitalize on the success of Juicy Couture," says the Federal suit.

Juicy's also claiming that Victoria's Secret's practice of selling apparel wrapped in the shape of lollipops, bon bons and ice cream cones totally bites off the success of Juicy's Sweet Shoppe packaging.

Guess when money is at stake (i.e. the shopping dollars of the lovely young ladies), copying is NOT viewed as the ultimate form of flattery!

Whose side are U on, ladies???

    and HOW long have words been printed on the asses of sweatpants? sorry juicy, but you're about 10 years too late to complain.

    WHO exactly is their market? Is it teens? No one I know in their late 20s or higher would wear something with a brand on their ASS! Especially if you have children. Can you imagine the moms picking up their kids at school with a brand on their behind! What a dumb trend!

    umh this is ridiculous. if juicy wasn't so expensive maybe people would buy it. the only reason they are filing a law suit is because they probably aren't making enough money. if they are suing Victoria secret, they might as well sue every other clothing brand imaginable for posting words on the ass of sweatpants.

    first, and doesn't EVERYONE put stuff on the ass of sweatpants? I'm pretty sure you can find that anywhere, and juicy wasn't the first to do it, they just did it a lot more than most people.

    um. no comparison.. Juicy Couture is way above the "run of the mill" VS. VS has always knocked off other "real" lables.

    I'm on no one's side as far as this is concerned. Because wearing a huge label across your ass is just tacky. As a matter of fact wearing any kind of clothes with it's label emblazoned all over it is tacky. It just seems so juvenile as if you're screaming to the world "Look what I can afford." Gross.

    fuck juicy its all about VS…juicy needs to get over themselves

  43. Sassy says – reply to this

    Juicy's side. But whatev, if girls want to buy cheap knock-offs, that's their problem. Ewww. Personally, I'd be embarrassed to wear "Pink." It's not original. VS, don't you have any ideas of your own?

    Re: Nikki – oh, moms wear them, rich moms who don't know how to dress themselves wear them. trust me, I used to work at a mall and we could always tell who the mom's from the rich area of town were because of their juicy sweatsuits. It's all the moms who also get plastic surgery and bleach out their hair and go tanning all the time, so you know, not REAL moms but still

    juicy WAS first to putt wording on the butt of the track suit trend. and then everyone…trashy walmart labels included…worded their tracksuits, including victorias secret's launch and success of the pink brand.

    I think they should put a logo right acoss the vagina that reads JUICY SNATCH. Then let's see what happens.

    Personally I could give 2 shits whether something is wrapped in the shape of lollipops, bon bons and ice cream cones. There are plenty other clothing stores with writing splattered across the ass. Who really cares?

    VS all the way, fuck you juicy, you're just mad cause you dont have any more original ideas, although I must say Ill buy your purses.

  78. Yoyo says – reply to this

    pa-lease… there are tons of companies doing this logo on the butt thing. some fitness brands have done this long before juicy. juicy is going after victoria's secret simply because they view them as a threat because they bite into the same demographic. i hope they get laughed out of court and have to pay legal expenses on top of that.

    Either way, it's tacky. I've seen 8 year olds wearing that crap and I want to slap their mothers (of course, it was on Staten Island, Tacky Capital of the World - and Don't think I'm hating on SI, I live there my whole life, it's just a fact). Worse than the 8 year olds are their 35 year old mothers wearing the same crap because they think it's cute that they
