ABSTRACT
This article explores the linguistic aspects of the vocabulary associated with women's clothing and fashion. It
highlights the significance of studying how language reflects cultural, social, and gender norms through fashion-
related terms. The dynamic and context-dependent nature of this vocabulary is discussed, along with its connection
to historical changes, globalization, and media representations. The research emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature
of this topic, intersecting with sociology, gender studies, and cultural anthropology, to uncover the socio-cultural
ideologies embedded in fashion discourse. This study aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of how language
shapes perceptions of identity, aesthetics, and social roles within the domain of women’s fashion.
KEYWORDS
Linguistics, women’s
clothing vocabulary, fashion discourse, gender norms, socio-cultural ideologies, semantic
evolution, media influence, interdisciplinary analysis, identity, cultural representation.
INTRODUCTION
The lexicon related to clothing reflects human
worldview and is one of the oldest fields of knowledge,
closely tied to the history of human development.
After discovering the protective function of clothing
from the negative effects of nature, humans began to
think about its aesthetic purpose. The desire for
innovation and the transformation of cultural
expressions force fashion creators to seek new forms.

Unknown artisans, tailors, and craftsmen created
unique costumes that became fashion trends. Today,
the fashion industry is a phenomenon closely
connected with international relations.
LITERATURE REVIEW AND METHODOLOGY
In modern linguistics, there is growing interest in
studying specific taxonomies of vocabulary, identifying
the sources of new linguistic units, and scientifically
analyzing them from a historical perspective. These
studies focus on formation, evolution, stability,
variability, and linguistic-cultural characteristics.
Although many linguists have studied individual
thematic groups within the Russian vocabulary (A. A.
Reformatsky, A. A. Ufimtseva, D. N. Shmelev, M. A.
Borodina, V. G. Gak, V. N. Prokhorova, V. V. Kolesova,
G. A. Prokhorova), significant parts of the vocabulary
remain underexplored and demand systematic
linguistic examination and description.
The study of certain groups of clothing vocabulary has
attracted the attention of linguists like S. L. Sonina
(1997), who examined the development of French
fashion terminology; N. V. Kulakova (2000), who
studied the lexicographic and functional-stylistic
aspects of clothing names in A. S. Pushkin’s language;
and V. G. Kuzina (2001), who analyzed the structural
and semantic aspects of headwear names in Oryol
dialects. Other linguists, including V. M. Panova (2002),
G. R. Daukaeva (2004), and O. R. Rostov (2006),
explored clothing names in various languages and
dialects. Furthermore, the work of T. N. Nagorskikh
(2009) on fashion in Western European culture, S.
Ozer’s (2016) study of clothing vocabulary in Russian
and English, and M. Halimova’s
(2002) research on Tajik
clothing vocabulary are worth noting. Additionally, S.
Usmanova (1971) and X. M. Khudoyeva (2018) made
significant contributions to the study of textile
decoration and jewelry terminology across various
languages.
RESULTS
This article presents the structural-semantic, linguistic,
and comparative-historical analysis of lexical units in
the conceptual field of "clothing" across different
languages. This area includes numerous categories of
clothing accessories, such as footwear and headwear
names, as well as terms describing various clothing
styles and fashion concepts specific to modern culture.
The relevance of this article lies in the ability to analyze
modern clothing vocabulary as part of a national-
cultural semiotic paradigm, reflecting semantic and
linguistic-cultural characteristics. The integrative
nature of the vocabulary within the field of clothing
and fashion adds further interest to this topic.
Therefore, identifying the sources of these units and
describing the main features and development trends
of this taxonomy is an essential task. Additionally,

understanding the linguistic relationships between
these units is crucial for achieving meaningful results.
Since clothing is one of the most important attributes
of society, the vocabulary serving this field remains in
constant flux, occupying a central place in the
thesaurus of language users. The high level of
creativity in the design, production, and use of clothing
today leads to relevant changes in the taxonomy of
objects, events, and realities that constitute the
linguistic and cultural layer associated with fashion and
the Russian lexicon.
This era is characterized by rapid and ongoing changes,
including the globalization of fashion. The trends in the
fashion world, mainly originating from Europe, define
the commonality of items found in modern wardrobes.
Moreover, relatively new fields of knowledge
—
such as
clothing modeling and artistic design, fashion
psychology, costume composition, and fashion
history
—
are developing rapidly, with an increasing
number of new clothing accessories, fashion concepts,
and their corresponding terms.
Linguists today acknowledge the systematic nature of
vocabulary, considering it reasonable to study
individual lexical sub-systems and micro-systems.
Scientific inquiry has advanced to a level where it seeks
to understand the structural relationships between
elements and recognizes the existence of systems
within its subject matter. It is now difficult to imagine
the study of any linguistic topic without using concepts
such as system, structure, and element. However, the
lexical layer of clothing and fashion remains
insufficiently explored due to its complexity, diversity,
and breadth.
CONCLUSION
The lexical layer related to clothing and fashion reflects
human worldview and meaning, being deeply
intertwined with the history and culture of human
progress.
This layer of vocabulary remains underexplored, as it
tends to change with societal progress and the
emergence of new concepts, words, and phrases. Its
comparative
study
is
of
particular
interest.
Additionally, this vocabulary offers intriguing insights
from both borrowing and etymological perspectives.
We define fashion as the short-term dominance of
certain styles and forms associated with humans'
continuous need for variety and novelty in the
surrounding reality. The concept of fashion is closely
related to the idea of beauty, which humanity has
strived to achieve for centuries.
