Abstract	A brief examination of the fashion world reveals a multitude of learning opportunities for the business law curriculum. Fashion Law, a niche legal practice that addresses the broad range of business law concerns facing the fashion industry, has only recently gained a more respected position within legal research, debate, and discourse. This article provides a class exercise based on the 2014 Fall Moschino "McDonald's" collection. The exercise is designed to prepare students for a variety of legal issues they will confront as business professionals. It can be introduced within an instructor's established business law curriculum to supplement the topics of intellectual property, free speech, and business ethics. The purpose of this exercise is to demonstrate how a particular industry, in this case fashion, can encompass many facets of business law, including ethics, intellectual property, and freedom of speech considerations. It encourages students to be cognizant of the diversity of legal issues that can arise in any industry and provides students practice recognizing those issues. The "Moschino" class exercise demonstrates the complexity of legal and ethical issues that can arise in the business world, even in business niches students have not previously considered. As the business world continues to evolve, students must understand that there are legal and ethical considerations in the most unique of situations, and the expectation of this class exercise is for students to critically assess and respond to these legal and ethical issues.
