With the popularization of prêt-à-porter, the fashion sector and the Law have experienced an unprecedentedlevel of proximity. The rise of fast fashion stores, whose outstanding features are high-scale production andlow prices, and the increasing competition in the sector have accentuated the need to protect the industrialand intellectual property of brands and creations.
