Kering faces lawsuit over ‘Made in Italy’ label

London - Kering has rebuffed all allegations made in a class action lawsuit concerning the origins of its luxury eyewear and sunglasses which are labeled as ‘Made in Italy’. Selima Optique, a luxury eyewear and sunglass designer boutique in New York and France, filed a class action lawsuit in a Manhattan federal court last week, which accuses Kering and its subsidiary Kering Eyewear of “deliberately and falsely” advertising products as ‘Made in Italy’.
