A fringe is an ornamental appendage to the border of an item, such as a flag. It originally consisted of the ends of the warp, projecting beyond the woven fabric. More commonly it is made separate and sewed on, consisting sometimes of projecting ends, twisted or plaited together, and sometimes of loose threads of wool, silk, or linen, or narrow strips of leather, or the like.
A fringe is the front part of the hair that hangs down above the eyes. Americans refer to a fringe as "bangs"; however, they are the only people to use this nomenclature, which is often not understood by native English speakers elsewhere as having anything to do with hair.
Fringe science is a phrase used to describe scientific inquiry in an established field that departs significantly from mainstream or orthodox theories.
By extension, any cultural manifestation not in the mainstream can be said to be on the fringe.
The Fringe were an indie rock band from North London in the late nineties signed to Blue Dog Records.
