when you make a list like this then it's always a challenge to deal with edge cases. fashion and tailor fit together as well as many other terms on that list. a swift taylor can be seen as producing fast fashion, even if not true in reality. fixing clothes is also the work of many tailors. with getting custom tailored clothes falling out of fashion (pun intended ;-) the bulk of the work of most tailors is making changes and fixing things. in germany it is even a recognized profession with a two year training (you can become a full tailor with an extra year). most of my visits to a tailor recently have literally been for a quick fix. stuff that i could probably have done myself if i had a sowing machine and time.
i am with you on the cat fusion however. i don't get that one either.

That being said while tailor (profession) is not a synonym of fashion (concept), tailor (verb) is a synonym of fashion (verb) and can be also a synonym of fix (verb).
