fanciness
State of elaborateness
Fanciness is the quality of being fancy—elaborate, decorative, or upscale.
It can describe actual elegance or pretension to it: The fanciness of the restaurant intimidated him.
The word often carries a note of skepticism, as if questioning whether the elaboration is worth it: All that fanciness and the food was still mediocre.
