With her 2 billion dollar brand, Tory Burch may have had her fair share of success, but as covered in our previous post, her legal troubles have yet to subside. After their divorce in 2006, two years after they started Tory Burch, LLC, Chris Burch eventually moved on to launch the eerily similar concept store C. Wonder. There were rumblings that Tory Burch was going to file a lawsuit for trade dress infringement. While the lawsuit never came about, her ex-husband has accused the famous designer of tortious interference with his business and has filed a lawsuit seeking a declaration from the Delaware courts that his ex-wife and her company cannot stop him from pursuing other business ventures
Seems as though Tory Burch is taking matters into her own hands with some publicity, giving an "unflappable" interview with NBC's Harry Smith. Her composure in describing her legal troubles will definitely fix any damages to her image that may have been caused by her ex-husband's allegations. Whether she will gain favor in the courts or by her ex-husband remains to be seen.
