Fenty & Ors v Arcadia & Anr Lord Justice Kitchin: Introduction 1. These proceedings concern a complaint by Rihanna, the world famous pop star, about the sale of fashion garments bearing her image. 2. The appellants (collectively “Topshop”) own and operate the well known Topshop retail fashion stores. In 2012 Topshop began to sell in its stores and through its website a fashion t-shirt displaying a clearly recognisable image of Rihanna. The image was derived from a photograph of Rihanna which was taken when she was on a video shoot for a single from her “Talk That Talk” album. Rihanna is looking directly at the camera with her hair tied above her head with a headscarf. It is, as the judge thought, a striking image and similar images had been used by Rihanna in connection with the Talk That Talk album.

  • Rihanna V Topshop & Passing Off: a Love/Hate Relationship
    Crefovi was a speaker at 2013 Cosmetic compliance summit in London The new European Union EU(‟”) cosmetics regulation entered into force on 11 July 2013. Many, in the cosmetics industry, are still confused over the exact wording of the regulation, which nonetheless implies tightening safety controls and information on cosmetic products. This topic was debated during the 2013 Cosmetic compliance summit, in London, on 15 October 2013. The Cosmetic compliance summit was Europe’s first two day event dedicated entirely to the EU cosmetic regulation and its implications. This summit gave brand owners, cosmetic designers and formulators, as well as cosmetics manufacturing companies, a chance to network, share best practices, discuss obstacles and overcome some of the biggest challenges the cosmetics industry faces today. Key industry professionals met in London at the Cosmetic compliance summit to discuss the surrounding issues, on 15 and 16 October 2013. Annabelle Gauberti, founding and managing partner of Crefovi, an expert on the law of luxury goods, spoke on Wednesday 16 October 2013, at the Cosmetic compliance summit, about the legal aspects of the EU Cosmetic products regulation and about how to become legally compliant with this EU regulation. You can watch her presentation here: While there is ample information in the industry surrounding the cosmetic products regulation, from a manufacturer and safety perspective, there is less available discussing the legal implications this regulation throws up. Hear from a leading legal professional on the key areas you need to be focusing on from a legal point of view, in this webcast recorded during the 2013 Cosmetic compliance summit in London, on 15 October 2013.

  • The Aesthetics of Mainstream Androgyny
    The Aesthetics of Mainstream Androgyny: A Feminist Analysis of a Fashion Trend Rosa Crepax Goldsmiths, University of London Thesis submitted for the degree of Ph.D. in Sociology May 2016 1 I confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Rosa Crepax Acknowledgements I would like to thank Bev Skeggs for making me fall in love with sociology as an undergraduate student, for supervising my MA dissertation and encouraging me to pursue a PhD. For her illuminating guidance over the years, her infectious enthusiasm and the constant inspiration. Beckie Coleman for her ongoing intellectual and moral support, all the suggestions, advice and the many invaluable insights. Nirmal Puwar, my upgrade examiner, for the helpful feedback. All the women who participated in my fieldwork for their time, patience and interest. Francesca Mazzucchi for joining me during my fieldwork and helping me shape my methodology. Silvia Pezzati for always providing me with sunshine. Laura Martinelli for always being there when I needed, and Martina Galli, Laura Satta and Miriam Barbato for their friendship, despite the distance. My family, and, in particular, my mum for the support and the unpaid editorial services. And finally, Goldsmiths and everyone I met there for creating an engaging and stimulating environment. Thank you. Abstract Since 2010, androgyny has entered the mainstream to become one of the most widespread trends in Western fashion. Contemporary androgynous fashion is generally regarded as giving a new positive visibility to alternative identities, and signalling their wider acceptance. But what is its significance for our understanding of gender relations and living configurations of gender and sexuality? And how does it affect ordinary people's relationship with style in everyday life? Combining feminist theory and an aesthetics that contrasts Kantian notions of beauty to bridge matters of ideology and affect, my research investigates the sociological implications of this phenomenon.

  • SISEU and Wing Tai Retail Committed to Helping Workers Affected by Restructuring Exercise
    28 February 2020 SISEU and Wing Tai Retail Committed to Helping Workers Affected by Restructuring Exercise 1 Wing Tai Retail has been reviewing its business operations since late last year, in close consultation with the Singapore Industrial and Services Employees’ Union (SISEU). As a result of the review, the company has identified some job positions that will cease to exist. Both Wing Tai Retail and the union are committed to ensure fair treatment and compensation package for affected employees. 2 In the immediate term, SISEU, through collaboration with NTUC’s e2i (Employment and Employability Institute), will render the necessary assistance to affected employees. This includes job searching, career coaching and employability training. In addition to the compensation package, through joint efforts, affected employees will also be given a one- time grant by the Company, which they can use to pick up new skills and better position themselves for future opportunities. 3 Ms Sylvia Choo, Executive Secretary of SISEU, said, “In light of this development, we want to assure our workers that the union is here for them. Our key priority is to ensure that our workers are treated fairly. More importantly, we will also continue to work together with the relevant training and placement partners such as e2i to ensure that affected employees are able to smoothly transition into their next jobs. We also urge more workers to join the union so that we can come in to provide assistance, should and when the need arises.” ### For media queries, please contact: National Trades Union Congress: Lim Li Yin Principal Consultant Strategic Communications DID 6213 8192 HP 9170 7622 [email protected] Wing Tai Retail: Lee Hwee Hong Head, Group Corporate Communications DID 63803956 [email protected] About Singapore Industrial and Services Employees’ Union The Singapore Industrial and Services Employees’ Union was formed in 1981.
