PayPal Melbourne Fashion Festival: Fashion Law Seminar – Important Changes to the Designs Act

K&L Gates is proud to be hosting, as part of the PayPal Melbourne Fashion Festival, its annual fashion law seminar. As an Official Supporting Partner of the 2022 Festival, this year our session will cover recent changes to the Australian Designs Act and how these changes will assist fashion designers in protecting their valuable designs.

In September 2021, the Designs Amendment (Advisory Council on Intellectual Property Response) Bill 2020 received Royal Assent. The Act will bring in important changes to the Australian designs law.

Join K&L Gates’ fashion law team Jonathan Feder (Partner) and Olivia Coburn (Senior Associate) who will go through the new Act and explain these changes as well as the practical implications of these changes.
