Fashion is a popular style or practice, especially in clothing, footwear, accessories or makeup. Fashion is a distinctive and often constant trend in the style in which a person dresses. It is the prevailing styles in behavior and the newest creations of textile designers. Because the more technical term costume is regularly linked to the term fashion, the use of the former has been relegated to special senses like fancy dress or masquerade wear, while fashion”generally means clothing, including the study of it. — Wikipedia
