Looking modern and good, with clothes or design that show good taste.
Tipar de utilizare:
[something] is stylish
Greșeală frecventă:
Learners sometimes confuse "stylish" with "style" and say *"She is a style"* instead of "She is stylish" or "She has style." Another mistake is overusing "fashion" as an adjective, saying *"a fashion dress"* instead of "a stylish dress" or "a fashionable dress."

|

|
trendy (Suggests following the very latest trends; can sometimes sound less classic or timeless than "stylish".)
|
smart (Especially in British English, emphasizes neat and well-dressed more than modern style.)
Antonime

|

|
shabby (Emphasizes worn-out or untidy appearance, the opposite of the neat, put-together look of "stylish".)
