Abstract
The judgment itself as well as the reasoning of the Court of Justice will be welcomed by luxury brand owners. Protection of the luxury image of their products is, according to the Court, the sole (necessary) justifi cation for implementing a selective distribution system, provided that the criteria imposed for entry into the system are objective, applied uniformly and in a non-discriminatory manner. The author believes however that the aim of maintaining a prestigious product image is a legitimate, but not sufficient reason for restricting competition.
