revenge dress

Definition

That devastatingly stunning outfit you wear to the first public event after a breakup, strategically chosen to make your ex question every life decision they've ever made. Usually involves more skin, confidence, and expensive fabric than your usual wardrobe. The fashion equivalent of 'living well is the best revenge,' except faster and with better Instagram potential.

Example Usage

Jessica spent three hours getting ready for the wedding in her revenge dress, knowing her ex would be there with his boring new girlfriend.
