Tory Burch Wins BIg (Really Big!) Against Online Counterfeiters

Don't mess with her Reva flats! Fashion designer Tory Burch has been awarded a whopping $164 million in a lawsuit against online counterfeiters.

Burch filed the suit back in December 2010, targeting 41 cypbersquatters who set up hundreds of websites, mostly based in China, selling fake Tory Burch shoes, bags and accessories. 

According to Women's Wear Daily, "The award is believed to be the largest sum of damages ever issued to a fashion firm in the ongoing battle against online counterfeiters." 

The court also ordered that the 232 domain names used to sell fake Tory goods be permanently disabled and turned over to Burch.

We wonder if Tyra will borrow the idea for this season's "America's Next Top Model."
