Thanx
It is not copyright infringement, no.

However, if anyone wanted to be a prick, it would fall under the trademark laws, not copyright.

I don't think there would be a problem. Look at how many of the drunk girls galleries show drunk girls with budweisers or some other brand.

What about if you were wearing a victorias secret panty set, does that mean Victoria' secret can sue you. The answer is no, it is not copyright violation because you are not copying, nor reproducing the copyrighted material. You are however, wearing it & there are no laws that I know of that prohibit this.
