Respect

Where is the respect?

I understand it's very difficult to be original these days with so many logos already trademarked. However what I don't understand is the lack of respect big corporations have for faith groups or anyone other than themselves to be honest. Cavalli needs to at least acknowledge the similarity instead of ignoring my own and others effected by their campaign which has been running for a while.

I understand it is of great 'inconvenience' to re market and re stock a brand who's products already exist in mass quantities around the world and is familiar to the eye however the point is RESPECT. I would expect as a customer that Cavalli takes responsibility for their actions as they turn over a nice profit each year. I would have assumed they conduct careful market research before re-launching their logo, surely they have the resources and staff. Nevertheless whether they knew or not is not the point as it is already public, the question is what's next?

How likely am I to want to buy a product from them when they have not publicly acknowledged their wrongdoing?
