Definition tawdry

Etymology

Shortened from tawdry lace; originally a corruption of Saint Audrey lace (from Old English ��el�ry�). The lace necklaces sold to pilgrims to Saint Audrey fell out of fashion in the 17th century, and so tawdry was reinterpreted as meaning cheap or vulgar.

Adjective

tawdry (comparative tawdrier, superlative tawdriest)

  1. (of clothing, appearance, etc.) Cheap and gaudy; showy.
  2. (of character, behavior, situations, etc.) Unseemly, base, shameful.
