Ivanka Trump may have distanced herself from the company that bears her name, but a new lawsuit claims the company still has an unfair advantage because of it. The San Francisco Chronicle reports that Ivanka’s clothing company has been sued over what a boutique chain claims is unfair competition.

The class action lawsuit, filed last week, was brought by Modern Appealing Clothing (MAC), a boutique in San Francisco. The suit seeks damages for women’s clothing retailers working in California, and also seeks an order blocking Ivanka’s products from being sold in the state.

The plaintiffs argue that Ivanka company has a leg up against the competition "from Donald J. Trump being the President of the United States and from Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared, working for the President of the United States." And the lawsuit also brings up President Trump’s tweet criticizing Nordstrom for dropping her clothing line, and White House counselor Kellyanne Conway telling a TV audience to “go buy Ivanka’s stuff.”

Though the #GrabYourWallet campaign has led many people to avoid shopping at companies that support the Trump family’s products, Ivanka Trump products have actually been selling better than ever. The company confirmed that sales have been up since February, and some experts say that’s likely because of her brand’s bump in publicity.

“My clients just want an even playing field,” MAC’s attorney. R. Michael Lieberman, told Courthouse News. Cosmopolitan.com has reached out to the Ivanka Trump brand for comment.
