Perhaps it is the combination of the shirt colour and dark trousers that increases the likelihood of confusion?Rose Hugheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04232611463781544102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5574479.post-60896752777271939762018-12-21T02:22:39.777+00:002018-12-21T02:22:39.777+00:00This interesting post had me thinking a bit more o...This interesting post had me thinking a bit more on the trade dress concept. Rather than looking at the ‘colour’ alone, or the colour +location (bus station), probably it was the whole package that gave rise to such assumptions. You’ve nailed it in your passage ...”Anyone located in the outdoor bus terminal area, wearing a blue shirt, and otherwise appearing as a likely employee with the bus company, was identified as such” <br /><br />So who and what decides the degree of likelihood? An art that is still being explored, tried and tested in the Courts. It would be interesting to research into the limits and boundaries of trademarks and trade dress and look forward any such posts from IPKat in future.
