Pamela Anderson may be facing a legal battle over the name of her eco friendly clothing line.

The line created by both she and Richie Rich, Muse, was later changed to A*Muse, a move Maggy London International claims was “a disingenuous effort to disguise their infringing activities.”

Executives at Maggy London filed a lawsuit on Monday claiming they trademarked the name “Muse” in 2002.

Maggy London claims they contacted Pamela and asked her to drop the name, but she refused.

Well, technically she’s put an “A” and a “*” in front of it, so it’s not “Muse” anymore so what’s the complaint?

Oh, yeah. Here it is.

From Contact Music:

“The suit seeks an order barring the designing duo from using any “colorable imitation” of the trademark and forcing them to hand over all profits and remaining clothing, for “impoundment or destruction”, according to the New York Post.”

A night of vegan food, fashion and animal rights will take place in Toronto on Thursday October 22.

The party begins with a vegan dinner at the Ultra nightclub at 5 PM, INK Entertainment’s Feed Your Soul, which benefits the animal rights group, People For The Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA)

The dinner will feature vegan dishes by Chef Chris Zielinksi and be hosted by Pamela Anderson and PETA’s senior vice president Dan Matthews, along with designer Richie Rich.

After the dinner, Rich will showcase his fashion label with Pamela Anderson, A*Muse, at the This is London nightclub.

As PETA’s number one pin up girl, it’s no surprise Pamela sought the opportunity to benefit the animal rights organization during the tour to promote the eco friendly clothing line, which consists of hoodies and zip ups, casual dresses, and beachwear.

Pamela’s tour will take place in major cities in North America, Asia, and Europe.

Tickets to the PETA benefit dinner are $100 and can be purchased by calling Ultra at 416.263.0330.

Pamela Anderson is back from New Zealand for a breather just before she heads to Miami for Funkshion Fashion Week Miami 2009.

The event takes place Wednesday October 14 through Saturday October 17.

She and Richie Rich will be presenting A*Muse , the eco-friendly fashion line she and Rich created on Wednesday, October 14.

After presenting A*Muse, Pamela and Dan Matthews, senior vice-president for PETA, will host a vegetarian charity dinner at the W Hotel, benefiting PETA.

Other highlights of Funkshion Miami Fashion Week include The Red Dress Fashion Show, which benefits the American Heart Association and Go Red For Women, which educates women about heart disease.

Red dresses from designers like Michael Kors, Carolina Herrera, Nicole Miller, Richie Rich, and Badgley Mishka will be displayed, along with a red swimwear line by Jantzen.

Hey, this is Miami you know. The bikinis are more in demand than the A-line skirts.

Pamela Anderson is out and about in New Zealand, debuting her eco friendly clothing like, A*Muse during Air New Zealand Fashion Week.

She showed up at a press conference wearing nothing but this pink sarong she had to continuously hold up while talking, joking it was a scarf for next season.

Here are some of her veggie and environmental highlights:

On animal rights: “I think anything with a heartbeat should be respected and I don’t think they should be made into clothing.”

Environmental stance: “I think being vegetarian is the way to go. It’s better than driving a hybrid car. One of the leading causes of global warming is factory farming.”

On her fashion range A*Muse, designed by Richie Rich, on the catwalk today: “It’s all about having fun, saving the world, doing good things and being pink and glittery, and also a bit political.”

Pamela Anderson will debut her animal and eco friendly clothing line, A*Muse, during New Zealand Fashion Week, September 22-25.

The designs she collaborated with Richie Rich were originally set to debut at New York’s Fashion Week from September 10-17, but Pamela set her sights on New Zealand for its green reputation.

Rich, who designed the Heatherette label, explained in more detail.

“Pamela is such an advocate for Peta [People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals],” Rich said. “I love animals. We wanted to produce a range using as many globally friendly fabrics as we could, in the spirit of being good to the world. That is part of the reason we want to kick it off in New Zealand, which is so lush and green. It goes with the vibe we are feeling. At the same time the Kiwi scene is fun and the line is fun.”

Rich originally admitted it was hard for him not to use fur in the collection.

Hopefully, with the guidance of Pamela, Rich now sees how easy it is to be chic and caring.

We brought you the news that Pamela Anderson and Richie Rich have collaborated to create a line of vegan clothing under the brand MUSE.

Now, we’re learning more from Rich just how the line was envisioned.

Strangely enough, it was a visit to a craft store that spawned the idea.

“A few years ago in Vegas, she had a T-shirt line, so I styled her show,” Rich told New York magazine. “She sent me to Michael’s, a craft store, in a limousine, and she was like, ‘Doll up my line!’ And I did. Glitter, pom-poms, you name it.”

Don’t know if that means the new clothing line will be “glittery” or if the experience lit a light bulb in Rich’s head that made him think, “We should work together.”

Since Pamela is a staunch vegetarian, no fur will be  used in the collection, which Rich said was hard for him.

Hopefully, working with Pamela will rub off on the designer and he’ll see cruelty-free as an easier and much kinder choice in the future.

Pamela Anderson has been running and hitting the pavement at full speed lately.

She recently collaborated with Richie Rich to develop a cruelty-free clothing and shoe line, Muse. She hinted (if even humorously) at a cooking television show where women make vegetarian food in bikinis.

Now, she’s coming out with her own brand of fragrance.

From her blog, Pammie writes:

“Finally a company with a heart—so glad we found each other- a company in Florida looks promising- I have developed a line of natural body fragrances and have more products to come- first fragrance is Raw by pamela…company is called pamela- super enviro-conscious, cruelty free- yummy-natural- very sexy fragrance I wear every day- will be available this summer—department stores, drug stores, affordable choices- I want to sell where I shop— nothing too fancy— Keep the Country COUNTRY!”

How cool it will be to get inexpensive, vegan fragrances at the local drug or grocery store!

But she’s not done yet. There’s also talk of a beauty drink under the same RAW brand, which stands for “Real Activist Wild.”

Go Pamela!

Pamela Anderson’s dreamed up cruelty-free fashion line is almost here!

Anderson has teamed up with fashion designer Richie Rich to create a line of environmentally friendly and animal-free shoes and casual clothing that includes hooded tops, skirts, and swimwear as part of a special line of the Muse brand.

If Pamela had it her way, she wouldn’t wear any clothing.  Luckily, she thought of the rest of us who can’t prance around naked at work all day and is making it easier to have an ethical closet.

“I really don’t like to wear clothes,” Pamela said. “I would rather go naked. But I love Richie’s designs, so I agreed to be part of Muse.”

Richie Rich, part of fashion duo Heatherette, said of Pamela, “Pam is an outdoorsy and summer kind of girl who I have been friends with forever. We share the same wild and crazy aesthetic. And she has long been my inspiration. Even though Pam prefers not to wear clothes, she looks great in sexy dresses. She reminds me of Marilyn Monroe and Brigitte Bardot.”

Pamela expressed interest in having her own shoe line after learning her favorite pair of boots, Ugg boots, were made of sheepskin.

The new cruelty-free Muse line is set to debut this summer.
