Chic, meaning "stylish" or "smart", is an element of fashion.

Etymology.

is a French word, established in English since at least the 1870s.

Early references in English dictionaries classified it as slang and New Zealand-born lexicographer Eric Partridge noted, with reference to its colloquial meaning, that it was "not so used in Fr[ench]." Gustave Flaubert notes in Madame Bovary (published in 1856) that "chicard" (one who is chic) is then Parisian very current slang for "classy" noting, perhaps derisively, perhaps not, that it was bourgeoisie.

There is a similar word in German, , with a meaning similar to chic, which may be the origin of the word in French; another theory links chic to the word .

Although the French pronunciation (shēk or "sheek") is now virtually standard and was that given by Fowler, chic was often rendered in the anglicised form of "chick".

Fashion is a popular style or practice, especially in clothing, footwear, accessories, makeup, body, or furniture.

Fashion is a distinctive and often constant trend in the style in which a person dresses.

It is the prevailing styles in behaviour 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.

Although aspects of fashion can be feminine or masculine, some trends are androgynous.

Trousers (pants in North America) are an item of clothing worn from the waist to the ankles, covering both legs separately (rather than with cloth extending across both legs as in robes, skirts, and dresses).

A dress (also known as a frock or a gown) is a garment consisting of a skirt with an attached bodice (or a matching bodice giving the effect of a one-piece garment).

It consists of a top piece that covers the torso and hangs down over the legs.

A dress can be any one-piece garment containing a skirt of any length.

Dresses can be formal or informal.

In many cultures, dresses are more often worn by women and girls.
