Untitled
michael kors is an american fashion designer who is idely known. he is a judge on the reality telivision show "project runway." kors has a women;s and men's clothing line and a women's handbags line.

His 3 lignes?
So from low to high are they marketed: Michael Michael Kors, then Kors Michael Kors, then Michael Kors? Just asking because my experience with the Michael Michael line us that they are far nicer than any low end brand is expected to be. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.199.95.45 (talk) 23:14, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

Moved from article to article talk
"He is half Jewish." (This line needs to be corrected. NO ONE is half-Jewish the way people are half-Japanese or half-Swedish because Jewish is not an ethnicity. It has to do with religious beliefs. One is either Jewish or one is not Jewish. It may be more accurate to say that Michael Kors is descended from Ashkenazi Jews or something like that, but the line, as it stands, is actually nonsense although it may seem to make sense.) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.93.65.110 (talk • contribs)

Bzzzt. wrong, check Who is a Jew? 68.120.195.45 (talk) 07:23, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

When a child is born to a Jewish mother the child is "automatically" considered Jewish. Michael's mother is Jewish, and his father converted to Judiasm.

"No one is half-jewish etc."

That is incorrect. For two reasons. Firstly, Judaism is not like christianity where being a christian or not is dependant on belief. In jewish law, only those who were born to jews (a jewish mother) are jewish. The only execption is if one undergoes a lengthy conversion process (which takes years). And, even if one ceases to believe in and/or practice judaism, he remains a jew under jewish law.

Secondly, judaism is not *only* a religion. It is also a culture, and it is also an ethnicity. Because jews will generally only marry other jews, they have become a distinct ethnicity as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.81.199.45 (talk) 04:36, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

The Mataline team?
"In 2008, he met with the Mataline team." This sentence seems incongruous with the rest of honors and awards mentioned in its paragraph. Also, I'm having trouble figuring out what the Mataline team is. Is this a legitimate thing, or someone promoting their own business? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.164.74.0 (talk) 05:57, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

Trademark infringement case
Article needs clarification of the current status of this. The only sources available seem to be from Jan 2009, it's possible that if this case was dropped or dismissed that might not have attracted any press coverage. January  (talk)  18:10, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
