Fashin

Fashion Terms — the Apparel Search fashion terminology directory

Fashin is what happens when fingers move faster than the brain: the word fashion with the letter “o” accidentally missed. Readers who searched for fashin almost always meant fashion, and this page exists to catch that typo and send them onward to the fashion terms, directories and resources of Apparel Search.

We think that your fingers may have been moving faster then your brain.  You have searched for the word fashin, but you might have accidentally missed the letter "O".  The proper spelling is FASHION.

FashinDo not feel too bad about the situation.  We have found that you are not alone.  Many people type too fast or simply to not understand that the word fashion is NOT spelled "fashin" or "fashun".  We actually have several apparel industry websites, so we understand that the word is often spelled incorrectly.  Actually, the word apparel is also often spelled wrong as apparal.  Anyway, we understand if you simply made an error.  That is totally fine.

Why did we create this page?

Well, the answer is rather simple.  Our company manages several fashion industry websites.  Many of which are educational resources for members of the international fashion community.  Although we are based in the United States, many of our readers are from other countries.  Certainly, English is a popular language around the world, but we must be understanding of the fact that not everyone knows how to spell words in the English language properly.  As a matter of fact, English is my primary language and I always accidentally spell words incorrectly... Anyway, our goal is to help viewers from around the globe understand that FASHION is spelled F-A-S-H-I-O-N and not fashin.

Fashion = correct spelling

Fashin = wrong spelling

Typos and Search

Misspellings are a real part of how people use the web. Search engines correct many of them automatically, but a directory built by hand can help too: a page at the mistyped address that acknowledges the slip, confirms the intended word, and links onward. Fashion attracts more than its share of typos because it is searched so often, by so many people, on small phone keyboards — fashin, fasion and fashoin all turn up in search logs.

The Word Itself

Fashion, spelled correctly, comes from the Latin facere, to make, by way of the Old French façon, shape or manner. The word carries both senses still: fashion is how things are made — the cut and construction of a garment — and the manner of the moment, the prevailing style. Every other F entry in this directory is a branch of that one word, which is why the letter needed three directory pages.

Common Questions

What does fashin mean?

Fashin is a misspelling of fashion. It has no separate meaning in the industry; the page exists because the typo is common enough in searches to deserve a signpost.

Why keep a page for a misspelling?

Because people really type it. A short signpost page costs little and routes readers to the fashion content they intended to find instead of a dead end.

Where should readers who searched for fashin go?

To the fashion entries of this directory — fashion business, fashion forecasting, fashion colors and the rest of the F terms linked from the directory pages.
