Trademark & Commercial Litigation · TTAB · Precedential

Prevailed Against VOGUE Owner in Precedential Trademark Trial

We represented Fashion Electronics, Inc. in an opposition brought by Advance Magazine Publishers, Inc., owner of the VOGUE mark, against Fashion Electronics’ application to register EVOGUE for consumer-electronics goods. Advance asserted claims based on likelihood of confusion and trademark dilution.

After the parties submitted evidence and final briefs, the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board applied laches to most of the challenged goods and dismissed the likelihood-of-confusion claim. The Board concluded that Advance had not shown inevitable confusion sufficient to overcome the laches defense. The EVOGUE application proceeded for the remaining goods, and the mark later registered as U.S. Trademark Registration No. 7,191,667.

Advance Magazine Publishers, Inc. v. Fashion Electronics, Inc., Opposition No. 91247034 (TTAB June 28, 2023) (precedential).
