Federal judge Victor Marrero said, "in view of
fashion
Industry, color has beautiful decoration function, and plays a decisive role in competition. The court held that Louboutin could hardly prove that the red sole should be protected by trademark.
The judge held that Louboutin did not provide enough evidence to prove that Eve Szentgrolan had infringed the "red sole trademark". Therefore, he asked the latter to remove the red shoe from its window and pay $1 million for compensation.
Harley Lewin, a lawyer on behalf of Louboutin, said that Louboutin herself and his company were very disappointed with the decision of the court, and were studying all possible countermeasures, but he did not disclose details in detail.
He also believes that "although the judge recognised that Louboutin red shoe is very famous, it is well known that he seems to think that in the fashion industry, it is best not to use a single color as a registered trademark".
The lawyer pointed out that the European Union's internal market unification Department has recently approved the Louboutin to "register the trademark of the red bottom high heels".
Harley Lewin believes that the bottom of red shoes has appeared since 1992, "it helps everyone immediately identify the design of Louboutin, which has been registered in the US in 2008".
