The lawsuit reads: “Given Ms. Walker’s iconic status in the streetwear and fashion industry and Mr. Abloh’s knowledge of the industry, Off-White must have known the logo before designing, producing and selling infringing outerwear.” Walker Wear said. The New York General Business Law § 349 stipulates that Off-White™ can claim monetary compensation. This regulation is to prevent deceptive and misleading business practices.
