glitziest
Maximum sparkle factor
Glitziest is the superlative form of glitzy, meaning the most ostentatiously glamorous or showily extravagant.
It describes whatever has the most sparkle, flash, or superficial brilliance in a given context: the glitziest casino on the strip, the glitziest award show of the season.
The word often carries a hint of tackiness beneath the shine.
