'continental style' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'reflected french way with repeating work' is the wordplay.
'reflected' says the letters should be written in reverse (letters reflected back).
'french way' becomes 'rue' ('road' or 'street' in French).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'repeating' says to double the letters.
'work' becomes 'op' (abbreviation for opus).
'rue' in reverse letter order is 'eur'.
'op' doubled is 'opop'.
'eur'+'opop'='EUROPOP'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for europop that I've seen is " music".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
