As another seldom-heard word, this one carries clear impressions of dress and carriage.
Referring in the Latin to tailors and the art of tailoring, the adjective describes a person who is well-dressed.
Interestingly, from the context in which the word is used, there can be cynicism or exaggeration of dress, carriage and demeanour within the written or spoken piece.
This is an excellent example of the meaning and intention needing to be clearly understood to avoid error and embarrassment.
