Glad Rags

Glad Rags is an informal, somewhat archaic term for fancy or festive clothing, typically worn for a special occasion or to impress others. It refers to one's best and most stylish attire. The phrase suggests clothing that is somewhat showy or ostentatious, rather than simple or practical wear. While not necessarily connoting extravagance, "glad rags" implies an outfit put together with attention to detail and a desire to look one's best. The term often carries a slightly humorous or self-deprecating tone.
