Because there were triable issues of design and copyright infringement and passing off, and because the plaintiffs demonstrated a real risk of irreparable harm to their exclusive reputation and to the commercial value of a time‑limited fashionable design that could not be adequately compensated by damages, the balance of convenience favored continuing the interlocutory injunction until trial; defendants would not suffer substantial prejudice.
