Legal Question in Intellectual Property in Connecticut
I got a designer to make a parody of the coco cola logo and they gave the commercial rights. Can I use it in my clothing line?
The design has the red circle and bubbles, but the bottle is of a woman and the coco cola font he made.

Generally speaking, using trademarks in parody is completely different from using trademarks in commerce. Any potential uses need to be evaluated on a case by case basis.
