drop-dead gorgeous
Stunningly, impossibly attractive
Drop-dead gorgeous describes someone so stunningly attractive that the sight of them could figuratively stop your heart: She walked in looking drop-dead gorgeous.
The hyphenated drop-dead works as an intensifier meaning extremely or absolutely, but it pairs almost exclusively with gorgeous.
The phrase is informal and emphatic, often describing someone dressed up for a special occasion.
