early 14c., "lose brightness, grow pale," from Old French fader "become weak, wilt, wither," from fade (adj.)

Adieu! adieu! thy plaintive anthem fades
Past the near meadows, over the still stream,
Up the hill-side; and now 'tis buried deep
In the next valley-glades:
Was it a vision, or a waking dream?
Fled is that music:--Do I wake or sleep?
[Keats, "Ode to a Nightingale"]
n.
early 14c., "loss of freshness or vigor," from fade (adj.), c.1300, " lacking in brilliance; pale, discolored, dull," from Old French fade (see fade, v.). As a type of tapering hairstyle from 1988 (fade-out style is in a 1985 "Ebony" article on men's haircuts).
