Is this for real? The last persons you want to mess with and you literally copy their logo, their symbol for life without asking? The infamous motorcycle sues the brand for using the Hells Angels Trademark symbol, the death head.

I don’t blame them because out of all brands I would expect this from this was the last one. McQueen’s team copied the logo so well into their clothing line that the Hells Angels warned they’re afraid that people wearing the Hells Angels ring or clothes with the death head symbol will be seen as impostors.

Hells Angels: ” the name hells angels calls on a huge reaction and has a great commercial value.“ The motorcycle gang doesn’t only want financial compensation but also demands that all the goods with the logo will be destroyed. They successfully sued Disney and Marvel in 2008. Seems this case has just began.
TweetShe’s tried a lot, that’s for sure, but I don’t see her sweating tears and blood behind a sewing machine to make an entire collection for her own clothing line.

It really is a long process and I want to do it the right way. I don’t want to jump into something and not be able to swim.
The A-lister admits for the first collection she wants to collaborate with an already existing clothing brand. ” I’m going to design for an already made line and then once I get enough experience and know what I’m doing I’ll do my own independent one.” Good girl, taking it slowly, since every celebrity is making a clothing line to keep the income stable. I wonder how long she will last, or how soon she will get her clothing line in the shops.
For sure is that she’s paving her way for the next fashion season, commenting on the style choices of her fellow celebs in Fashion Police with Joan Rivers. But will that be enough to learn to deal with manufacturers, fabric choices, fit, cut and colour palettes?
