Script (guión): Idioms, ‘dressed to the nines’. If you are dressed to the nines you are wearing your best clothes. I went out last night to our office Christmas party and I wore my dinner suit, my brand new brogues, my braces, gold cuff links, a fake fur coat, which looked very realistic, a trilby and I even had a cane with a diamond in the top. Oh yes. A few people said I looked like a pimp, but I think they were just jealous.
