[pp.int.general] Fashion copyright?

[Amelia Andersdotter]

eh. well. design protection is not exactly copyright but somewhere between
patent and trademark, i guess.

before anyone pulls up hillary wainwright(?) bear in mind that she thinks of
trademarks as a valid alternative to copyright in fashion circumstances. for
principal reasons, i am against all forms of theoretical tradeable goods
that can't be... deteminably valuably represented.
