Datuk Zang Toi, who is currently in the centre of a controversy involving one of his designs, has responded by saying that he thinks it is a compliment for another designer to copy him.

Worn by singer-songwriter Alicia Keys at this week's Met Gala, Ralph Lauren was accused by social media users of copying Toi's New York City skyline cape.
