Hailey Bieber Sued for Trademark Infringement After Launching Skincare Line

Hailey Baldwin Bieber is being sued for trademark infringement by a 9-year-old fashion company that shares the name of her skincare line, Rhode – which is Bieber's middle name.

RHODE clothing brand cofounders Purna Khatau and Phoebe Vickers filed the suit against the model, 25, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on Tuesday

Khatau and Vickers own the RHODE trademark for several common clothing items and accessories.

Bieber launched her Rhode skincare line earlier this month, and Khatau says she and Vickers immediately began to see "confusion in the marketplace,”

Vickers and Khatau asked the court for a preliminary injunction ordering Hailey to stop using the name "rhode" for her brand, per documents.

The co-founders said Hailey attempted to buy the rights to the name from them four years ago, but they declined.
