What is a modinetje?

A modinetje traditionally refers to a young female seamstress or modiste, often working in a fashion or sewing atelier. This term was commonly used in the past, particularly in the context of the fashion industry and tailoring, denoting an apprentice or assistant in the fashion world. The work of a modinetje often involved assisting in the creation and alteration of garments, learning sewing techniques, and gaining experience in the fashion trade.

In a broader, more figurative sense, the term can also be used to describe a young woman interested in fashion or who dresses according to the latest fashion trends.

However, the concept of the modinetje has evolved over time, and in contemporary contexts, it is rarely used or has taken on a different meaning, partly due to changes in the fashion industry and the rise of modern education and professions in fashion and tailoring.
