Fashion News Roundup: Louboutin and YSL Still at It, PETA Hates on Kim Kardashian and Janet Jackson, and Kate Moss' Vogue Cover Gets Recycled

The Latest on YSL v. Louboutin: Yes, this is still happening. YSL's lawyers have now filed their appeal against Christian Louboutin's latest appeal, which was due by the end of 2011. Way back in April, Louboutin sued YSL for selling a (red) shoe with a red sole, claiming the famed footwear designer had put a trademark on scarlet soles in 2008 - which the judge then deemed invalid. But clearly, Chris L. wasn't about to give up without a fight.
