Morphology
The meaning 'fashionable' is directly derived from combining 'vogue' (fashion/trend) with the preposition 'in' indicating being within that state. This in + noun compositional pattern is common and cross-linguistically familiar, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents would readily understand the phrase.
Etymology
In vogue may come from an old French word for a moving wave or current, with vogue giving the picture of a trend riding a wave. Think of fashion as a wave that moves through people, so if something is in vogue it is 'fashionable' or 'popular' now.
