Can I Protect a Fashion Trend?

August 16, 2017

Over many years, the fashion industry has come to play a vital role in the world economy. When someone creates what they hope will become an important fashion trend, they should be the only ones to make money or derive other benefits from that. And yet, there are too often cases in which someone copies their trend and tried to make it their own, thus depriving the originator of the trend from the credit and benefit they deserve. If a trend you establish could potentially make you lots of money and bring you a lot of fame, it’s likely someone will decide to copy it. The easiest and the most effective way to protect your trend is through copyright law, which is why we created CopyrightDrive.com.

Because everyone should have the ability to easily protect themselves and their creations, we offer a foolproof way to protect yourself if anyone should try to copy your trend or even to claim that you were copying them. Under copyright law, the creator of a fashion trend has an automatic copyright as soon as they create a fashion trend. However, if somehow your ownership is challenged, legally speaking, it will not be enough to simply claim you own it and you came up with it first. It will be necessary to prove not only your ownership of the fashion trend, but also a precise date you created it. That is why a deposit in the CopyrightDrive.com is such a great idea; we can help you prove everything.

For the life of the copyright, which is your life plus 70 years, you will always have proof of everything whenever you need it. If you have to protect your rights, you will need certain proof that you own your textile model and prove that you were the first one to create it. CopyrightDrive.com exists for one reason; to provide the owners of creative work with the ability to obtain and demonstrate the proof they need whenever it becomes necessary.

In addition to having access to incontestable proof of ownership and priority in your copyright, you also have a secure backup of your fashion trend, whenever you need it. Not only that, but you have the option of promoting your work on your very own profile at the CopyrightDrive.com website. This means you can simultaneously advertise your work and also let everyone know that your copyright in your work is fully protected. If that’s not enough for you, consider that your protection is international in scope, since your proof is valid in all 174 countries who have signed on to the Berne Convention. CopyrightDrive.com can provide you with peace of mind anywhere in the world.
