Fashion Industry: Is your IP covered for Brexit?

Intellectual property rights (IPR) play an important role in the competitive fashion industry, where the copying of designs has always been rife. These rights have a critical material value in the fashion industry, where consumers buy into the value and reputation of a brand.
