Kim Kardashian filed a $10 million lawsuit against Misguided for using her trademark name and promoted its brand online with her brand's likeness. The KWK Beauty mogul expressed her frustration in a series of Twitter posts as she wrote, "It's devastating to see these fashion companies rip off designs that have taken the blood, sweat and tears of true designers who have put their all into their own original ideas." She further added, "I've watched these companies profit off my husband's work for years and now that it's also affecting designers who have been so generous to give me access to their beautiful works, I can no longer sit silent."
Her lawsuit against the UK-based company claims that "companies have sought out ways to leverage [Kim's] celebrity status and social media following without seeking her consent," and have made her "an unwitting and unwilling spokesperson of their products." Well, at least she managed to get some good money from the lawsuit!
