Definition
花枝招展
Literally means:
sprays of flowers in full blossom swing in breeze
Actually means:
(of women) be gorgeously dressed
招展, to swing in wind. This phrase originally means sprays of flowers in full blossom swing in breeze. It figuratively means a woman is dressed gorgeously and thus catches people's attention.
招展，指迎风摆动的样子。本义指开着鲜花的枝条迎风摆动。比喻女子打扮得很艳丽，惹人注意。
