Trade dress refers to a product's physical appearance, including its size, shape, color, design, and texture.

In addition to a product's physical appearance, trade dress may also refer to the manner in which a product is packaged, wrapped, labeled, presented, promoted, or advertised, including the use of distinctive graphics, configurations, and marketing strategies. In intellectual property law, a cause of action for trade dress infringement may arise when the trade dress of two businesses is sufficiently similar to cause confusion among consumers.

The term trademark can refer to any of the different types of marks registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The two most common types are trademarks and service marks.

A trademark is a word, name, symbol or device which is used in trade with goods to indicate the source of the goods and to distinguish them from the goods of others. A servicemark is the same as a trademark except that it identifies and distinguishes the source of a service rather than a product.
