MUXU, I think regardless of being dead or alive, to blatantly copy another designer's work is wrong, and could probably fall under this category. Finding inspiration or being influenced by is a totally different story.

I'm pretty sure that any other kind of original artwork would be copyrighted. That whole thing a year ago when the artist sued Galliano and the photographer for making a campaign that was heavily influenced by his work. He may not have won, but there was a case there.
