ALEXANDER WANG Won Millions In Legal Proceedings On Fakes by aaabagstrade(m): 4:06am On Mar 15, 2019
<p>When the people pulled off his work, Alexander Wang did not mess up. According to WWD, the designer has successfully sued nearly 50 defendants carrying replica Alexander Wang bags (a total of 459 websites). However, Wang is unlikely to receive an actual settlement - a total of $90 million - because the domain owner cannot track it.</p>
<p>A spokesperson for the label explained to WWD that the court system would regularly make large settlement payments, primarily for symbolic purposes, primarily to prevent future parties from entering high quality replica designer bags. So basically, even if the court agrees to a $90 million settlement, the brand won't actually get $90 million. (We still try to wrestle around it.)</p>
<p>This marks the first legal solution the brand is pursuing, and because of Wang's international presence, he wants to send information to the counterfeiters. “Protecting our brands requires global vigilance and proactive measures such as sending stop and stop orders directly to domestic and foreign counterfeiters, and contacting web servers hosting fake websites which sell replica Alexander Wang bags,"said the company’s chief executive. King Dennis. “The creativity and originality of our design is the foundation of the company."
