A Durban fashionista caught in an employment battle between two trendy retail giants walked out of court victorious this week.

Danielle de Bruyn, 27, who studied fashion design and textiles at the Durban University of Technology was taken to court by Truworths Limited for breaching a restraint of trade agreement.

In founding affidavits, Truworths alleged that during her time as an employee, De Bruyn was “exposed to highly confidential and commercially sensitive information” and signed a restraint agreement at the time of hiring in 2014. De Bruyn worked as a buyer, tracking international fashion trends and then either designed or identified designs to manufacture merchandise for the local market. She was also expected to know what would sell, what should be ordered, and quantities of stock in various styles and sizes.She underwent a two-year period of in-house training before being promoted to a designate buyer.

Judge Binns-Ward said adidas opposed the interdict on the point that Truworth’s application had been “unduly delayed” as they were aware from December that De Bruyn had been offered the adidas job.
