It typically denotes an individual who is excessively adorned with ornaments, jewelry, or other embellishments, often to the point of appearing ostentatious or flamboyant in their attire.
The word "dizen" itself derives from the Middle English term "disen," which means "to clothe in finery." As such, it indicates a deliberate and conscious effort by someone to dress themselves in an extravagant and eye-catching manner. The connotation of "be dizen" is generally negative, suggesting an excessive and often tasteless display of wealth, status, or aesthetic.
To be dizen might involve wearing elaborate attire with excessive embroidery or bold patterns, donning a plethora of accessories such as oversized earrings, necklaces, or rings, or applying excessive makeup and cosmetics in an attempt to enhance one's appearance.
Although the term "be dizen" is less commonly used in modern language, its definition serves as a reminder of a bygone era when flamboyant dressing and ostentatious displays of wealth were more prevalent. Today, it is sometimes employed to describe individuals who consciously adopt an exaggerated and ornate style of dressing, often to make a bold and attention-seeking fashion statement.
The word "dizen" is derived from the Middle English word "disen", which originally meant to dress or adorn oneself. The term comes from the Old French word "desseiner" or "dessiner" meaning "to adorn" or "to design". Over time, "disen" transformed into "dizen" in English and retained its meaning of dressing or adorning oneself in a showy and elaborately ornamental manner.
