Axinn Counsel Rebecca Clegg Named 2025 MCCA Rising Star

On July 10, Axinn partner Mary Helen Wimberly will moderate a panel on “Antitrust Around the World” at Informa’s Antitrust Midwest conference.

Axinn Managing Partner Jeny Maier joins fashion and luxury industry counsel Andowah Newton and co-host Puja Patel on the American Bar Association’s Our Curious Amalgam podcast to explore what happens when antitrust law meets high fashion. The episode unpacks recent cases across the luxury sector—from the FTC’s challenge to Tapestry’s acquisition of Capri, to no-poach allegations involving Saks and major fashion houses, to tying claims against Hermès and the iconic Birkin bag. Together, they delve into how competition law intersects with exclusivity, branding, market definition, and status. Tune in for a look at how antitrust enforcers and courts are scrutinizing consolidation, labor practices, and sales tactics in an industry built on scarcity.
