Bebe vs. May Department Stores International Inc.

In Oct. 2002 May Department Stores International had a logo made for their men's clothing line that spread controversy with the Bebe line because the logo that was made for the May Department Stores looked very similar to the one of bebe. Phillip Cason was the graphic designer that had to testify that his idea was not inspired by bebe but that he had this idea planned before bebe even came out. May had to remove all of their advertisements, tags, and etc. because bebe didn't want their line and the May line to be confused. In the end May had to give bebe a percentage of the money and had to throw everything away with that confusing logo that was similar and create a new one.
