The word “mode” derives from the Latin modus, meaning “measurement,” “limit,” “regulation,” “method,” “style,” or “form.” “Mode” as a fashion term derives from French “mode,” meaning “trend” or “fashion.” [Etymology and history of mode] From the 15th to 16th centuries, Italian fashions strongly influenced France and other countries. In the 17th–18th centuries, distinctive fashion developed under French court culture. In 19th-century France, haute-couture designers modernized and generalized the traditions of aristocratic fashion. Spread worldwide after World War 2 In the 1970–80s, wearing DC brands such as Comme des Garçons and Yohji Yamamoto, which expanded from Japan worldwide, became known as “mode-style” fashion. In fashion media, it includes nuances such as stylish and sophisticated, and is sometimes used to express an advanced style opposite to “conservative.”
