RésuméNathalie Dreyfus, founder and CEO, DreyfusNathalie Dreyfus is a specialist in IP law and a French and European
trademark attorney. She is the founder and CEO of Dreyfus, a leading
French IP firm that specializes in the digital economy.
Her responsive and modern approach to the practice of law is well
known for its efficiency, especially regarding international issues involving
new technologies, the protection of trademarks online and the new generic
top-level domains.
Dreyfus’ practice offers first-rate services relating to consulting, trademarks
and designs, patents, monitoring services, contracts, litigation and domain
names. She is a renowned expert consultant to the Paris Court of Appeal,
as well as to WIPO’s Arbitration and Mediation Centre and the NAF, and
she is a panelist in several professional bodies.
Trademark protectionQ1. What conventions, Multilateral or Bilateral
agreements are pertinent to the protection of trade
identities in your jurisdiction?
France is part of the following agreements, including:
• The Madrid Arrangement and Protocol,
• The Paris Convention,
• The Nice Convention,
• The Hague Convention, and
• The Vienna Convention.
Additionally, France is subject to the European
Union’s (EU) regulations and conventions as the EU is a
contracting party in multiple international agreements.
Q1a. What national legislation is pertinent to the
protection of trade identities in your jurisdiction?
French trademark law is governed mainly by the French
Intellectual Property Code (IPC) as well as several
independent laws and decrees and EU regulations. The
modern French Trademark law dates back to the Act of
June 23, 1857 until the statute of December 31, 1964,
modified by those of June 23, 1965 and June 30, 1975.
This last statute was abrogated by the Act of January 4,
1991.
As for the other intellectual property rights, all the
applicable texts are today all aggregated in the IPC.
Finally, the Community Trademark granted by the Office
for Harmonization in the Internal Market (OHIM) in
Alicante, automatically covers France and is subject to
the provisions of the EC Regulation No. 207/2009, but
not all of its overseas territories. The EU distinguishes
two categories of French overseas communities. Overseas
Departments (DOM) are considered as members of the
EU, therefore the Community trademark is automatically
protected in French Polynesia, Guadeloupe, Martinique,
Mayotte, Reunion and Guyana. However, it produces no
effect in the Overseas Countries and Territories which
include New Caledonia, French Southern and Antarctic
Lands, Wallis and Futuna, Saint Pierre and Miquelon, as
they are not members of the EU.
Q2. Is your jurisdiction a first-to-use jurisdiction or a
first-to-register jurisdiction?
In France, protection of trademark rights is offered in
principle to the first-to-register and no rights are created
by use. However, there is an exception where rights can
be afforded by use. Indeed, Article L 711-2, paragraph 3
of the IPC provides that the distinctive character of a
trademark may be acquired through use. However, the
acquisition of distinctive character through use assumes
that its holder has extensively used the sign.
Q2a. Please describe the rights afforded by use and
separately by registration in your jurisdiction.
In principle, French trademark rights are obtained
through registration. Registration in itself offers to the
trademark’s registrant a monopoly on the exploitation
of the mark.
However, there are exceptions to this principle, in
particular the article 6bis of the Paris Convention which
offers protection to notorious trademarks even in countries
where they have not been registered, but only for the
goods and services used. The Directive 89/104/EEC
of December 21, 1988 to approximate the laws of the
Member States relating to trademarks completed the
Paris Convention by awarding a national transversal
protection to the trademark for all goods and services
for well-known trademarks (Tribunal of first instance of
Lyon, July 23, 2014, Vente-privee.com).

LITIGATION
RésuméKenneth Mullen, WithersKenneth heads Withers’ London-based IP and technology team and
advises on IP, commercial technology and data protection. He has extensive
experience advising clients across a range of sectors including luxury
brands, digital commerce, software and technology, design, hotels and
leisure, music, publishing, financial services, retail and manufacturing.
Kenneth also regularly assists charities and not for profit organisations.
Kenneth’s transactional expertise includes advising on licensing, distribution,

publishing and music industry contracts, research and development,

processing agreements as well as website terms/privacy policies.
The individual in this case, the UK fashion designer
Karen Millen, now no longer involved in the
running of the Karen Millen business, has been
refused permission by the High Court to seek trademark
protection in China and the USA for the names ‘KAREN’
and ‘KAREN MILLEN’. As with other high profile designers
and retail entrepreneurs in recent years – among them
Jo Malone and Elizabeth Emanuel – Karen Millen the
individual has been blocked in her bid to re-enter the
fashion and lifestyle market using her own name by her
former firm. This case serves as another warning to
individuals who sell or lose control of their eponymous
brand but who may later decide to try and step back into
the limelight.
The Karen Millen caseKaren Millen, the designer (‘KM’), has not been involved
in the Karen Millen trading company (‘KMCo’) since
selling her shares to an Icelandic consortium funded by
Kaupthing Bank in a 2004 Share Purchase Agreement
(‘SPA’). The terms of this SPA include restrictive covenants
which effectively prevent KM from using or attempting to
use any of KMCo’s IP and goodwill, including its registered
and unregistered rights to the ‘KAREN MILLEN’ name (or
other confusingly similar names) in a similar or competing
business.
Since her departure from the trading company, KM
has sought to establish her own range of clothing and
homeware under new ‘KAREN’ and ‘KAREN MILLEN’
brands respectively (the ‘new brands’). In 2011 KM was
involved in litigation with KMCo in the English High
Court in relation to possible trading under the new brands
in the UK and EU. This case was settled out of court in
2015 before judgement was received and in this latest
case KM has applied for negative declarations against
KMCo to allow her to proceed with trademark applications
for the new brands in the US and China.
The High Court in Karen Millen decided that KM could
not register her proposed new brands in the US and China
and refused to grant the negative declarations applied
for by the designer. Richard Meade QC, sitting as judge,
held that such marks would be ‘confusingly similar’ to the
registered and unregistered KAREN MILLEN trademarks
owned by KMCo at the date of the SPA. Furthermore, the
High Court held that KM’s desired trademark registrations
in China and the US would be a breach of the restrictive
covenants, entered into by KM, not to ‘use’ KMCo’s IP
in competition.
Lessons to be learntThe tale of the rising star, creative or founder who assigns
their personal brand to an operating company, from
Reclaim the name –Karen Millen fails toget her own backThe recent High Court decision of Karen Denise Millen v(1) Karen Millen Fashions Ltd (2) Mosaic Fashions Us Ltd(2016) adds to the list of acrimonious trademark disputesbetween famous founders and the eponymous brands theyhave created and since separated from. Kenneth Mullen andJohn Huxley, Withers, investigate the increasingly commontrademark case.
