Well done Grace Hay we say……….A lingerie shop owner has won a legal battle with an American television network who tried to stop her putting on a fashion show in the Highlands.
Grace Hay, 34, was left stunned when New York-based Fashion One Television objected to her registering a trademark called ‘Highland Fashion Week’.
The businesswoman, who runs Grace Lily Lingerie in Nairn, applied for the trademark to market a community event she was planning in the local area.
The US firm, who operate a number of fashion-based digital TV channels which are broadcast around the world, already own a trademark called Fashion Week.
They said Miss Hay’s trademark was too similar to their own and would confuse customers.
