This is an excellent podcast. There was a similar video a while back, actually showing the garments that they talked about, but I can't seem to find it.
What I find most humorous about those that are so bent out of shape about the copying is that they themselves are copycats, but they hold themselves to different standards. To them, it is okay to copy a design from 10-20 years ago, or to pull 10 different design elements from a current design...but if someone does it to them, they want to sue. The simple fact is that design elements of contemporary fashion are always recycled. Runway fashion is innovative (from an art and design perspective, as much as this crowd would probably laugh at that), but not marketable, as most people (even fashionistas) do not want to be walking art exhibitions.
