The fashion in the PV reminds me more of Gwen Stefani than Gaga lol
Her styling with her face/hair is Gwenish, but the fashion is very GaGa-esque.

The Gareth Pugh collections she took pieces from were heavily worn by GaGa, the lip shapred hair pieces were used by GaGa in her Bad Romance video worn backwards, the same McQueen collection that Ayu got her black houndstooth jacket/red houndstooth dress had pieces that were worn by GaGa. It's very accurate to say that the styles are similar to GaGa's because they HAVE also, in fact, been worn by GaGa at some point. However, I don't know if this can really be called copying because this is the fashion world. People will gravitate towards something if it looks great/interesting, and it's not necessarily Ayu going around stealing ideas from GaGa as much as it is her showing how great she is at choosing interesting clothes. (EXCEPTIONS ARE HER TOUR OUTFITS WHICH ARE MEANT FOR THE STAGE)

(Oh, and I don't know if Ayu chose all of the outfits worn by models, but I guess she probably approved them or something...)
