Forever 21 has gained the attention of shoppers for its trendy fashions, but now it's beginning to receive unwanted attention from designers, manufacturers and retailers who claim that its popular wares mirror theirs too closely.
Since January, the Los Angeles-based retailer, which sells casual women's and men's clothing under its private label, has been sued at least 22 times in Los Angeles and New York federal courts for alleged violations of U.S. copyright law, according to a Web site that tracks court cases.
