时尚潮流风云变幻，我们是做dressed to kill 迷死人的时尚达人，还是沦为fashion victim，掌握fashion的度是第一要义。 dressed to kill Dressed to kill 的意思当然不是穿上蒙面的紧身衣去干杀人的勾当; dressed to kill用来dressed extremely well; wearing fashionable clothing 穿着出众，打扮时尚。 这个俚语是从何而来的呢?The idea is that your appearance could be so strong and powerful that you would kill (dominate, defeat, knock over) anyone who sees you. 漂亮的打扮迷死众生，让人甘拜在你的石榴裙下。 一般来说，女孩子dressed exceptionally well都是为了应对比较特殊的场合for a special event of one kind or another。比如说约会或者参加舞会。请看下面的两个例句： 例句：Tina was dressed to kill for her date on Saturday night. 周六的晚上，蒂娜打扮得漂漂亮亮地去赴约。 例句：It took Mary two hours to get ready, but it was worth it--she was dressed to kill and the center of attention. Everyone was saying she was the most beautiful woman at the prom. Mary为参加毕业舞会花了两个钟头打扮。然而工夫不负有心人，她穿戴得美丽动人，成为受人瞩目的焦点。谁都说她是毕业舞会上最漂亮的小姐。 fashion victim |
