1. fashionable

   Fashion is a form of self-expression and autonomy at a particular period and place and in a specific context, of clothing, footwear, lifestyle, accessories, makeup, hairstyle, and body posture. The term implies a look defined by the fashion industry as that which is trending. Everything that is considered fashion is available and popularized by the fashion system (industry and media). Given the rise in mass production of commodities and clothing at lower prices and global reach, sustainability has become an urgent issue among politicians, brands, and consumers.

Examples of fashionable in a Sentence

1. Harriet Beecher Stowe:

   One would like to be grand and heroic, if one could; but if not, why try at all? One wants to be very something, very great, very heroic; or if not that, then at least very stylish and very fashionable. It is this everlasting mediocrity that bores me.

2. Joan Didion:

   When we start deceiving ourselves into thinking not that we want something or need something, not that it is a pragmatic necessity for us to have it, but that it is a moral imperative that we have it, then is when we join the fashionable madmen, and then is when the thin whine of hysteria is heard in the land, and then is when we are in bad trouble.

3. Alessio Fasano:

   Now. the pendulum is all the way to the right, where this is a fashionable diet.

4. Alessio Fasano:

   So I think it's an intriguing fact that there are African American people that choose to go gluten-free because the fact that they embrace the diet along with the fact that the diet is more expensive and nevertheless they do follow it, that it's clearly not because of fashionable reasons, but because they feel that was the best way to control their symptoms, you can't necessarily say that (gluten) sensitivity is more frequent among African-Americans because of this – that would be a stretch.

5. L?Estrange:

   There are braying men in the world as well as braying asses; for what?s loud and senseless talking, huffing, and swearing any other than a more fashionable way of braying?
