moderiktighet

Non-PRO Swedish to English Other Other catwalk fashion
I'm uncharacteristcally doing an article from a popular magazine, and don't really understand what some of it is talking about.
Identitetslöshet och moderiktighet kan fungera kortsiktigt mellan raderna framför catwalken, där modepressens lag för inbördes beundran råder.
Advice appreciated. Not sure whether it should be pro or not.

fashionability

Well, this is the standard translation, but I'd be tempted to try for a bit of a flashier synonym here... trend awareness (don't know if that's the same thing really).
