decorated
Given visual embellishment
Decorated describes something that has been adorned or embellished with ornamental elements: a decorated cake, a lavishly decorated ballroom.
When applied to military personnel, decorated means having received medals or honors for service: a decorated war hero, the most decorated soldier in the regiment.
The word can also describe an ornate style, as in Decorated Gothic architecture.
