Cases of trendy positions (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

instances

'cases' is the definition.
('instance' can be a synonym of 'case')

'trendy positions' is the wordplay.
'trendy' becomes 'in' ('in' can mean fashionable).
'positions' becomes 'stances' (stance is a kind of position).
'in'+'stances'='INSTANCES'

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for instances that I've seen before include "Incessant (anag)" , "Examples, illustrations" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
