Katie Taylor said she was bullied, intimidated and trolled during the lengthy intellectual property case against the I Kissed A Girl international superstar.
"That was really heartbreaking," said Ms Taylor.Perry's legal team also filed a cross-claim in December 2019 against Ms Taylor, seeking orders that Ms Taylor's trademark be cancelled.
Ms Taylor said she was worried that if the cross-claim was successful, it could ruin the future of her lounge wear label. "While this has all been happening, I was sitting in a limbo space, always thinking, if the cross-claim was successful, I'm either going to have to close my business or rebrand everything."Katie Taylor has been running her lounge wear brand Katie Perry since 2006.
Ms Taylor now operates out of a home in Sydney's Hunters Hill since COVID-19 lockdowns, but continues to sell at pop-up stalls and at The Rocks Markets near Sydney Opera House."I know I'm really fortunate. The main message I want to share with everyone is that small business matters," Ms Taylor said.
"No matter if you're a mum with small little kids, or a huge pop star – we all matter, no matter how big or small our business is.
