accoutred

Dressed and equipped

Accoutred means outfitted or equipped, especially with military gear or distinctive dress.

The word carries a formal, slightly archaic tone: soldiers accoutred for battle, a knight fully accoutred in armor.

It appears in British spelling; Americans write accoutered.

The noun accoutrements refers to the equipment or accessories themselves.
