Legal Question in Business Law in Puerto Rico

i'm really confused about the laws on designer replicas

i have recently come upon a few designer replica whole sale web pages which gave me a great idea for a store. but i'm not really sure if its legal. i live in Puerto Rico and there are tons of stores that sell replica designer bags and they dont seem to have any problem but i want to be absolutley sure because i want to sell imitation designer clothing,sunglasses,shoes and jewelry aswell with the idea to dress my clients into ''celebrity costumes'' so is it or is it not illegal to sell replicas where i'm at all time letting them know that they are fake.
