trendiness

Being in vogue

Trendiness is the quality of being fashionable or up-to-date with current styles and tastes.

The word often carries a faintly dismissive tone, suggesting superficial conformity to what's popular rather than genuine interest: The restaurant's trendiness couldn't make up for mediocre food.

Something with trendiness may lack staying power.
