-====== shíshàng: 时尚 - Fashion, Fashionable, Stylish ====== +
-===== Quick Summary ===== +
-  * **Keywords:** shishang, 时尚, Chinese fashion, what does shishang mean, fashion in Chinese, fashionable in Chinese, Chinese style, trendy in Chinese, 潮流, 流行, modern Chinese vocabulary. +
-  * **Summary:** "时尚" (shíshàng) is the essential Chinese word for "fashion" and "fashionable." It describes a person, object, or lifestyle that is stylish, modern, and in line with current trends. More than just being "popular" (流行), `时尚` implies a sense of taste, curation, and sophistication. This term is central to understanding modern urban China, from high-end clothing and design to the aesthetics seen on social media and in everyday life. +
-===== Core Meaning ===== +
-  * **Pinyin (with tone marks):** shíshàng +
-  * **Part of Speech:** Noun, Adjective +
-  * **HSK Level:** HSK 4 +
-  * **Concise Definition:** Fashion; fashionable, stylish, in vogue. +
-  * **In a Nutshell:** `时尚` is your go-to word for anything related to "fashion." As a noun, it refers to the concept of fashion itself—the industry, the trends, the magazines. As an adjective, it's a compliment you give to someone who dresses well or a place that has a cool, modern vibe. It captures the feeling of being current, tasteful, and aesthetically pleasing in a contemporary way. +
-===== Character Breakdown ===== +
-  * **时 (shí):** This character means "time," "era," or "season." It points to things that are current and of the moment. +
-  * **尚 (shàng):** This character means "to esteem," "to value," or "to advocate." It carries a sense of holding something in high regard. +
-  * **Combined Meaning:** Together, `时尚` literally translates to "esteeming the times" or "valuing what is current." This beautifully captures the essence of fashion: appreciating and adopting the styles and trends of the present era. +
-===== Cultural Context and Significance ===== +
-In China, the concept of `时尚` has undergone a dramatic transformation. After decades of standardized, utilitarian clothing during the Mao era, the economic opening-up unleashed a hunger for personal expression, and `时尚` became a powerful symbol of individuality, modernity, and economic success. +
-Unlike the Western concept of "fashion" which has a longer, more continuous history, China's modern fashion scene is a dynamic blend of global and local influences. Initially, `时尚` was heavily associated with Western luxury brands from Paris, Milan, and New York. However, in recent years, a powerful counter-movement called **[[国潮]] (guócháo)**, or "national trend," has emerged. This movement sees designers and consumers embracing styles that incorporate traditional Chinese elements (like silk, embroidery, Han-dynasty style collars) into modern streetwear and high fashion. +
-Therefore, being `时尚` in China today is not just about following global trends. It can also mean participating in this cultural conversation, skillfully blending international aesthetics with a rediscovered pride in local heritage. This term is less about a single look and more about an attitude of being globally aware and culturally rooted. +

-===== Nuances and Common Mistakes ===== +
-  * **`时尚` (shíshàng) vs. `流行` (liúxíng):** This is the most important distinction for learners. +
-    * **`流行` (liúxíng)** means "popular" or "prevalent." It's neutral and can apply to almost anything widespread: a song, a hairstyle, a meme, or even a disease (e.g., `流行感冒` - liúxíng gǎnmào, the flu). It's about what many people are doing. +
-    * **`时尚` (shíshàng)** implies a higher level of taste, style, and deliberate choice. It's about curated aesthetics. A cheap, popular t-shirt might be `流行`, but a well-designed, tasteful outfit is `时尚`. All things `时尚` are usually `流行` within a certain group, but not all things `流行` are considered `时尚`. +
-  * **Incorrect Usage:** +
-    * **Wrong:** `最近这种感冒很**时尚**。` (Zuìjìn zhè zhǒng gǎnmào hěn **shíshàng**.) +
-    * **Reason:** This is incorrect and sounds comical. A flu is "prevalent," not "stylish." +
-    * **Correct:** `最近这种感冒很**流行**。` (Zuìjìn zhè zhǒng gǎnmào hěn **liúxíng**.) +
