Hitting the Streets for the 'Design Piracy Prohibition Act'

‘Tis the week of fighting back the low cost knock-offs. Big name fashion designers, including Nicole Miller and Narciso Rodriguez, have been hanging all over politicians this week in an attempt to push the Design Piracy Prohibition Act, making it illegal for people to steal the design of a piece of clothing to be sold for a lower price. As the law books read right now, it’s only illegal if you copy the thing and then add the logo of the company who made the original onto it, thus committing a bit of fraud.
