Most dictionary definitions for '
fashion' seem to contain '
style'. So in these passages:
http://www.nytimes.com/1991/02/24/magazine/looking-on-the-bright-side.html "It's as if designers everywhere want to give the world a lift. Instead of being on the somber side - which would be completely understandable - the latest styles are exactly the opposite. Exuding confidence and cheeriness, these new
fashions are like bright flags bravely waving above the troubled landscape."
http://www.nytimes.com/2013/05/23/fashion/changes-in-the-marketing-of-mens-underwear.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0 "While economic pundits are quick to theorize that this rise, like rising hemlines or lipstick sales, is indicative of a recovery, it is more likely a result of strong consumer demand for new
fashion styles, the neon-bright colors and the trimmer cuts designed to go with “slim fit” suits and dress shirts."
Is '
style' redundant in 'fashion
style'? How are 'fashion
style' and 'fashion' different?
