Vogue Publisher Sues Dog Fashion Magazine ‘Dogue’
The founders of the canine fashion outlet believe their brand is distinct and not confusing. Condé Nast is not sold.

Vogue Publisher Sues Dog Fashion Magazine ‘Dogue’
Vogue magazine could be irreparably damaged by an outlet publishing pictures of fashionable dogs.
That is the argument Condé Nast’s lawyers are making in federal court, in a suit claiming the up-and-coming magazine Dogue–with a ‘D’– threatens their famous fashion publication.
At issue, of course, is the name.
Condé Nast says it was “obviously intended” to confuse readers, who may think the two outlets are related.
Vogue previously published its own celebrity dogs feature in 2024, using the same name as the magazine they are now trying to take down.
Following their discovery of the lesser-known outlet, Condé Nast sent a cease-and-desist letter.
