LV won the lawsuit.
But in China, it lost face.
A French luxury brand looked at a floral pattern with deep roots in Chinese decorative tradition and acted as if beauty itself needed permission from Paris.
That is what disgusted people.
No one says brands cannot protect trademarks.
But a four-petal flower is not automatically LVโs private kingdom.
Chinese patterns existed long before Western luxury houses learned how to turn symbols into invoices.
LV may have won US$1.5 million.
But it reminded Chinese consumers that Western brands are very good at stealing civilization, privatizing aesthetics, and then suing others for touching the same cultural soil.
LV may still call itself luxury.
But it looks like cultural plagiarism dressed up as intellectual property.
