Overview
What is .fashion
.fashion comes from the English word fashion. It speaks to fashion designers, tailoring houses, clothing stores and factories, fashion bloggers and writers, and those who stage fashion shows. It was added to the internet’s root in 2014, and IANA’s record names Registry Services, LLC as the body responsible for it.
Its meaning is narrower and more precise than .style: whoever reads it knows you work in clothing specifically. With us its price is the same in the first year and at every renewal, so there’s no surprise after the first year, and it supports DNSSEC signing.
But it takes no names in Arabic letters, so the house’s name is written in Latin. Its word is longer than .com, and someone who rarely writes in English may stumble over its spelling; write it out for them rather than just saying it.

Who it suits
For your field: is .fashion the best fit?
Every field has an extension that says something about it. Here is what .fashion says in each, and which extension completes it.
A fashion house or designer
Excellent · The first choice
The house’s name then .fashion says the field exactly, and suits a new collection every season.
Register it with.fashion.com
An online clothing store
Good · A good fit
It says what you sell; .shop adds that you’re a store taking orders.
Register it with.fashion.shop
A tailor or workshop in Saudi Arabia
Good · A good fit with .com
.fashion says the craft, and your customer in Saudi Arabia types .com when looking for the workshop by name.
Register it with.fashion.com
A fashion blog
Good · A good fit
The subject is in the extension, and .blog says it’s a blog if you want to say so.
Register it with.fashion.blog
A wholesale garment factory
Good · A good fit with .com
It says the field, but a wholesale buyer trusts .com more on a contract and an invoice.
Register it with.com.fashion
A beauty salon
Consider another · Consider .style
A salon sells a look, not a garment; .style is broader and closer to it.
Register it with.style.com
