Wow. That's amazing. I knew that IP protection on fashion was weak/difficult, but was unaware of the reasoning.
What's bizarre is that people have been making music for a long time, too, yet courts have no trouble locking it down with copyright.
I wonder if this is a notational thing. There's an established and (somewhat) robust notation for music allows it to be "fixed in any tangible medium of expression", as required by US copyright law. Is there even such a thing for fashion?
