> it’s not fashion

Many would argue good fashion is timeless as well. A good chunk of haute couture from decades past would be seen as modern and appealing today. (Which is why the houses like to repackage and ship them as such...)

I disagree, accordingly Wikipedia:

> Fashion is a popular aesthetic expression at a particular time, place and in a specific context, especially in clothing, footwear, lifestyle, accessories, makeup, hairstyle, and body proportions.

Fashion is inexplicably linked to a particular time. Just like Art - Art evolves with time and it is part of the culture, current events, etc.

Design is not (unless you want to include say media as it changes through time. For e.g. print -> digital media).

But not at every given point in time. That fashion ebbs and flows is a given, but that's not the same thing as being timeless.
