"Gussy up" -> Ăn diện bảnh bao, trông thông minh, sảng sủa hoặc trang trí, cải thiện vẻ bề ngoài của cái gì đó.

Ví dụ
While the blueprints (kế hoạch chi tiết) require strict block placement, there's no reason you can't gussy up your towns with fancy decorations and other additions.

Trousdale Estates area of Beverly Hills that, after a lickety-split (tốc độ lớn) gussy up, is back on the market at not quite $18 million and their glass-walled beach-front contemporary (đương thời) getaway in Carpinteria, snapped up about two years ago for $18.6 million, is now in escrow (chứng thư giao kèm điều kiện) to be sold at a presumably (có thể đoán chừng) profitable amount after it came on the market about two months ago at $24 million.

While Wolverine was drawn as gruff (thô lỗ, cộc cằn) as every by Frank Quitely in the series, later artists would gussy him up to more resemble (tương đồng) "The sexiest man alive." Morrison himself intended this, remarking in the first trade of New X-Men that he wanted to include in readership "women who slavered (làm nô lệ) over Hugh Jackman." Conversely (ngược lại), the comic book version would begin to exhibit (trưng bày) the more powerful healing factor of the movie Wolverine, seemingly coming back from the most fatal (tai hại) of damage.
