Explanation:
Ho avuto lo stesso problema qualche mese fa. Credo ci sia una differenza tra trademark e trade dress.
Dopo rapida ricerca ho trovato un sito www.tomwbell.com/writings/FullVTD.html
che riporta quanto segue:

I. Trademark vs. Trade Dress
Although often treated as a subcategory of trademark law, trade dress in fact represents a unique sort of intellectual property. The Supreme Court has defined trade dress as the "'total image and overall appearance'" of a good, [13] further specifying that it "'may include features such as size, shape, color or color combinations, texture, graphics, or even particular sales techniques.'" [14] Trade dress thus encompasses a more diffuse set of intellectual properties than does trademark law.

Spero sia utile!
Ciao!

Magari puo' essere messa tra virgolette,
tipo 'immagine commerciale'
per denotarne la natura di termine tecnico, specifico.
