Regent Street Window Project where architects in partnership wit

From Daily Mail:

Rihanna is threatening to sue Topshop after claiming they sold T-shirts with her face on it without asking permission.

The superstar’s team is said to have told the high street clothing chain run by billionaire Sir Phillip Green to stop selling them, and is reported to be asking for £3million in compensation at the High Court.

The legal threat comes despite the What’s My Name singer having dined with Sir Philip and music mogul Simon Cowell while on her Christmas break to Barbados in 2010.

The star, who last year signed a deal worth a rumoured £800,000 to design a range with High Street rival River Island, tweeted about the Boxing Day meal they had together, saying: ‘Just had dinner w/ Simon Cowell Philip Green @ Sandy Lane! Great night!’

She has also spent time with Sir Philip’s daughter Chloe while holidaying at the same time in the Caribbean two years ago.

It was even rumoured she might follow in the footsteps of Kate Moss and design a range for Topshop, but the two parties could now face each other in court.

Last year Topshop released a T-shirt featuring a picture of Rihanna from her ‘We Found Love’ music video, which sold out quickly afterwards.

It is understood this is the garment at the centre of the row.

In Britain companies could argue that by buying the image from the photographer, they do not have to pay licensing fees to the star pictured.
