WHAT DOES FASHIONABLE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

fashionable

Fashion

Fashion is a popular style or practice, especially in clothing, footwear, accessories, makeup, body piercing, or furniture. Fashion is a distinctive and often habitual trend in the style in which a person dresses. It is the prevailing styles in behaviour and the newest creations of textile designers. The more technical term costume has become so linked to the term "fashion" that the use of the former has been relegated to special senses like fancy dress or masquerade wear, while "fashion" means clothing more generally, including the study of it. Although aspects of fashion can be feminine or masculine, some trends are androgynous.

Definition of fashionable in the English dictionary

Amy Bloom
To hold happiness is to hold the understanding that the world passes away from us, that the petals fall and the beloved dies.
