This article addresses the Brazilian fashion industry's productive and spatial profile. The study demonstrates its importance and the need to move forward in constructing a new legal discipline with its own body of rules that regiment the complex relationships involving the creative process and its trade products. Therefore, we outline the Brazilian fashion industry profile and show the advances in several countries to define this new law's boundaries. Compared with the Brazilian case, we have concluded that despite the progress, the country is falling behind and in need of more firm actions to guarantee the legal security crucial to this industry's continued development.
