nattiness

Well-dressed quality

Nattiness is the quality of being natty—smartly and neatly dressed, with attention to stylish detail.

The word suggests a crisp, put-together appearance: His nattiness was evident in the pressed pocket square and polished shoes.

It can carry a slightly old-fashioned or affected tone.
