Your word isn't here yet

Join Hablaaa and add the expression no one else has documented.

/Sounds like "SEHR" (as in "set") + "OON" (as in "Uber") + "fee" (as in "feet") + "goo" (as in "good") + "REEN" (as in "reed")/

Meaning

A total fashion plate: someone who always looks impeccably dressed and groomed, as if they stepped straight off a runway or out of a magazine illustration. Used in Spain. The word comes from "figurín," an illustrated fashion figure or paper doll. A figurín never shows wrinkles, never looks rushed, and somehow manages to be overdressed for every occasion without it seeming out of place.

Examples

He went to the beach looking like he walked off a runway, full designer outfit and everything.

He always arrives at the office looking completely impeccable, every single day without fail.
