I Present to you.. the new world.. ADERATE!
I have realized english has no words for some outfit over the top or bright. I know your gonna say. "What about the word flashy???" Well to start, does flashy sound like over the top without making you think personality too? No! So here i introduce.. ADERATE (or for British english arderate) And it comes from the latin verb for "burning" which is ardere. This word would be used to represent whne someone is too over the top, dressing in an eye hurting way or when there is too much going on, like you could say "Oh my god did you see Sandra's dress for her wedding? It's so aderate and bright!" Thank you for your time.
