Charter Communications

Many celebrities, including Rihanna, Snoop Dogg, Paris Hilton, and, most recently, Miley Cyrus, have been showing interest in the metaverse with their newly registered trademarks. Metaverse is said to offer a new way to bring music or products to people who cannot physically attend their stores or concerts or who simply prefer to enjoy them from the comfort of their homes. What is behind this trend and why do celebrities find it so appealing?

Fashion is one of the biggest industries in the world. Global market value of the clothing industry was set to $1.7 trillion dollars in 2021 and expected to enjoy a 6.1% growth to $1.95 billion dollars in 2022-2023 according to two different research reports by Euromonitor and McKinsey [1]. This article highlights why trademark registration is of a crucial importance for fashion retailers.

Filing for trademark registration is something anybody can do with a single online application. Many business owners, however, decide to wait with trademark registration because the process can appear quite complicated at first sight. Applying without a legal representative can be a difficult and time-consuming process. Mistakes and errors are easy to make and can lead to weak trademark protection or the rejection of your trademark registration altogether.
