Ivanka Trump New York- Arabstoday Ivanka Trump is facing legal action after she was accused of copying a sandal design by Derek Lam. Lam’s team gave Ivanka Trump Footwear and Marc Fisher Footwear seven days to pull her wedges from the shelf. The shoes in question are Lam’s $780 “Ayami” shoes and Trump’s $150 “Cadie” wedges. “We have seen very similar copies before but we have never seen a shoe that perfectly copied,” Jan-Hendrik Schlottmann, chief executive officer of Derek Lam, told WWD. “It’s such an investment to make a shoe ... we had to protest this.” Marc Fisher Footwear, which distributes Trump’s collection said the lawsuit is bunk. “The Lam wedge sandals are of a popular design type that has been used by numerous manufacturers for many decades,” the company told People.com in a statement. “There is nothing iconic about the appearance of the Lam sandal.”
