In a way that follows current trends and styles, or in a way that is considered stylish and appropriate.
From 'fashion' (from Old French 'facon' meaning 'manner or way') with the suffix '-ably' (in a manner of). 'Fashion' originally meant 'the way something is done.'
Being 'fashionably late' is actually a social strategy—arriving exactly on time used to be considered eager, so the fashionable thing was a 15-minute delay!
Fashion language became gendered feminine in Victorian-era discourse, positioning fashion engagement as shallow and women-centric, excluding men from legitimate fashion participation.
Use neutrally to describe style awareness in any gender; acknowledge fashion as legitimate form of cultural and personal expression across all demographics.
