The singer believes that Topshot has misled her devotees into thinking that the tee was a "genuine" endorsed merchandise with "an emotional connection to their heroine." Her lawyer said, "The sales...gave rise to a likelihood of deception, damaging Rihanna's goodwill."
In their defense, Topshop claimed they had bought a license to use the image from the photographer who took it during the "We Found Love" video filming. "Secondly there is no representation here, given that the garment is fashion wear and not promotional merchandise," they added.
Additionally, they claimed RiRi's camp continued asking for free clothes for her to wear despite the legal dispute. "It is not in dispute that Rihanna is a celebrity (but) the reputation of Topshop is also material to the allegation of misrepresentation," they said.
