- A three-way legal battle over Nirvana’s ‘smiley face’ logo has been settled.
- This one gets complicated: In 2018, Nirvana sued fashion designer Marc Jacobs for copyright infringement, claiming he ripped off the logo for a T-shirt design.
- Jacobs then countersued, claiming Nirvana didn’t create the logo and didn’t hold the copyright.
- A third party got involved when former art director Robert Fisher filed his own lawsuit, claiming Nirvana had profited off his work “for 30 years” without compensating him.
- All three sides have reportedly agreed to a ‘mediator’s proposal’, to be finalized in the coming weeks.
- What’s your favorite rock T-shirt?
