I am passionate about Italian fashion.
'Moda' = MO-da. 'Appassiona' = ap-pas-SIO-na, stress on third syllable.
Use this to describe fashion as a cultural and aesthetic interest. Italy is one of the fashion capitals of the world, so this topic is always welcome. It can lead to conversations about Italian designers, shopping, and the concept of 'bella figura'.
'La moda' in Italian can mean both 'fashion' as a concept and 'trend'. 'Essere di moda' means 'to be in fashion'. The expression 'appassionarsi di moda' uses the reflexive form of the same verb.
