Puts on finery
To dress up is to put on fancy or formal clothes, often for a special occasion: She dressed up for the wedding.
It also means to wear a costume: The kids dressed up as superheroes for Halloween.
Figuratively, to dress something up is to make it seem more appealing or impressive than it really is: He dressed up the proposal with fancy graphics.
