presentable
Ready for company
Presentable describes someone or something fit to be seen or shown to others.
A person who is presentable is dressed and groomed adequately for the occasion: Give me five minutes to make myself presentable.
A presentable document or room meets minimum standards of acceptability.
The word implies clearing a threshold rather than excelling—presentable is good enough, not impressive.
