Trickle-up trend: A fashion trend which, rather than starting with the designer and working its way onto the high street, is based on styles first seen on the streets. Celebrities are often the ones to sport trends before they reach the masses, and many designers have muses who inspire entire ranges, thereby bringing a trend to life.

Vanity sizing: The process where ready-to-wear clothing of the same size has become bigger over time. Critics say that the fashion houses have done this purposely to flatter customers to keep them coming back. However the change in sizes may also reflect the changing average sizes of women.
