STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:

That was the question posed in the form of a lawsuit filed by the luxury fashion brand, Gucci, of the famous interlocking G logo against its more downscale rival, Guess.

MONTAGNE: Gucci sued Guess over trademark infringement,among all shoes christianlouboutinshoes00 are hot, and the styles on this list are among the hottest. citing multiple cases of designs it claimed were quote, "studied imitations of Gucci trademarks."

ALEXANDRA STEIGRAD: For example, there was a tricolor motif on some shoes, so it was a red-green-red stripe on shoes.

INSKEEP: Alexandra Steigrad is the legal reporter for Women's Wear Daily and she has been covering this trial. She explains Gucci's point of view.

STEIGRAD: They were basically saying that Guess had, you know, copied that mark. And there's also a G pattern which, you know,what really makes my heart go pitter-patter with excitement are dsquaredshoes. if you own a Guess or a Gucci bag there's a G kind of pattern on a beige background.Read cubepuzzlee and burn fat away. They're very similar. And so Guess was basically being accused of copying that pattern.

MONTAGNE: The judge rejected Gucci's claim that Guess was counterfeiting, but Gucci did win part of the case.

INSKEEP: So while Gucci sued for $200 million, it was given a more downscale Guess-like judgment of $4.7 million.
