CELINE was founded by a female designer Celine Vipiana in Paris in 1945. It started with selling high-grade boys’ leather shoes. It has a history of more than 60 years, but it has always been synonymous with excellent quality and exquisite fashion. Since 1959, women’s wear and handbags have become the main projects of Celine. The various patterns on Celine’s handbag, such as two-wheeled carriage, OMEGA, flowers and half-moon logo, are deeply representative of Celine’s classics. The case was formally filed on September 1, 2022, and the progress of the case was updated again on October 4, 2022. The court has approved the plaintiff’s motion to extend the deposit time. This kind of infringement is still a problem of trademark similarity or misuse. Mai Jia supports reminding sellers to be cautious when choosing trademarks, investigate them in time and remove them as soon as possible!

brand introduction
In 1945, Celine Vipiana, a female designer, opened her first shop in Paris ” CELINE, Le bottier pour enfants” , started from selling high-grade boys’ leather shoes, and has a history of more than 60 years. Since 1959, women’s wear and handbags have become the main projects of Celine. The various patterns on Celine’s handbag, such as two-wheeled carriage, OMEGA, flowers and half-moon logo, are deeply representative of Celine’s classics.
Some brands have thus transformed into simplicity. In the autumn and winter of 2008, Prada showed a high-necked black lace skirt, which was gorgeous and extremely elegant; Stefano Pilati of Yves Saint Laurent brought a neutral direct cutting design; Marc Jacobs introduced a new image of LV-rigid, neutral and soft works, such as collarless jackets and threaded pants, from which its usual arrogance and cartoon color quietly retired.
However, these are not as good as Céline, which is originally based on pragmatism. As the first contemporary luxury brand, Céline gained a firm foothold with both comfort and sophistication at the beginning of its birth. In the 1960s, it marched into women’s wear, and achieved great success by putting forward the concept of “elegant leisure sportswear”. In the new century, it was rescued from the rapid decline by emphasizing practical minimalist design, regaining the fashion trend and becoming a brand that elegant women want to wear every day.
