Join us March 9, 2026 for an engaging conversation with Professor Fisher on Lululemon Athletica Inc. v. Costco Wholesale Corp., the “Kirkland dupe” lawsuit. We will unpack how Lululemon alleges design patent, trademark, and trade dress infringement over lookalike Scuba hoodies, Define jackets, and ABC pants, and what that fight reveals about today’s fashion economy: viral dupes, platform driven demand, and the thin line between inspiration and consumer confusion. Come learn how functionality limits trade dress, why design patents matter, and what brands can actually enforce. Seats are limited.
