Fashionably IP – Episodes 10-18 – New beginnings in the form of recycling, upcycling and resale in the world of fashion

January 2023

In the ninth edition of HGF’s Fashionably IP podcast in the spirit of the new year and new beginnings or at least recycled beginnings, we are going to talk about recycling, upcycling, and resale in fashion. How do IP rights impact recycling, upcycling and resale? Can a brand owner control the resale of its branded product and product which may have been upcycled or customised from the product it originally sold?

If you have any questions concerning issues raised please contact HGF Partners & Trade Mark Attorneys Rebecca Field or Lee Curtis.

Episode 9
