outdazzled
Exceeded in brightness
Outdazzled means surpassed in brilliance or dazzling effect.
If something outdazzles another, it shines brighter, impresses more, or draws attention away: Her sequined gown outdazzled everyone else at the gala.
The word applies to literal brightness or figurative showiness—a performance, personality, or display that eclipses the competition.
