Etymology

The term 'fashioner' originates from the word 'fashion', which comes from Middle English 'fassioun', derived from Old French 'façon', meaning 'maker' or 'creator'. The word has been used since the late 14th century to describe the manner or style of doing something, often in relation to clothing or style. The suffix '-er' indicates someone who performs a specific action, thus a 'fashioner' is someone who engages in the act of creating fashion. Over time, this term has evolved to encapsulate a broader spectrum of individuals within the fashion industry, reflecting changes in society's values, aesthetics, and modes of self-expression. The rise of social media and digital platforms has particularly amplified the influence and diversity of fashioners, allowing them to reach global audiences and shape trends in unprecedented ways.
