Dying Is Your Latest Fashion is the debut album by American post-hardcore band Escape the Fate, released on September 26, 2006. The origin of the album's title comes from a line in the chorus of the song "Situations". It contains nine new songs plus two songs taken from There's No Sympathy for the Dead. "Not Good Enough for Truth In Cliché" and "Situations" were released as singles, with videos being made for both. It is the only full-length album and second release with original singer Ronnie Radke and rhythm guitarist Omar Espinosa. Mandy Murders modeled for the cover art and dated Ronnie Radke in the past.

Promotion and release
Escape the Fate released the song "Not Good Enough for Truth In Cliche" as the first single and later released the song "Situations" as the second single on November 20, 2007 on iTunes, which included "Situations", its video, and the B-side "Make Up" which was previously only available on the Japanese version of Dying Is Your Latest Fashion.
"The Webs We Weave" was supposed to be the band's third single on the album, but was never released due to Ronnie Radke's departure.
Following the release of the album, Radke was put on parole for narcotics charges and later violated parole when he was involved in an altercation resulting in the death of 18-year old Michael Cook but Radke did not kill Cook. Radke plead guilty to Battery charges and was sent to prison for two years, leading Escape The Fate to hire Craig Mabbit as their temporary new lead singer. He would later be made the permanent new singer for the band and release two studio albums with Escape the Fate. Radke was released from prison in December 2010 and has since formed a new band, Falling in Reverse, and has released a studio album, The Drug in Me Is You, with them.
