For most people, the word "fashion" means "clothes". But people may ask the question, "What clothes are in fashion?" And they use the word "fashionable" in the same way.

Today fashions change very quickly. Some of this is natural. We hear about things much more quickly than in the past. Newspapers, radios, telephones and television send information from one country to another in a few hours.
