English term or phrase: style savvy
It's a common term in English, but I couldn't find a "savvy" Danish equivalent. Any good suggestions. One of those cases where the dictionary was not useful.

My two suggestions apply to people who e.g. alway dress correctly and are sure of touch.
Bentes suggestion is, as she points out, someone with expert knowledge about style.
So, it depends on the context.

Explanation:
You could also go more slangy: 'modedyr' etc. if it fits in you text.

Jørgen's 'stilsikker' may be good too.

Best,
