: ?! / Exactly. You left out the rest of the phrase, so your answer doesn't make much sense.

Daryo
: The tricky bit being the "2.0" your answer is a perfectly good one.// Easy to figure out the rest: "the new improved version of power dressing" // Omitting the "version" part made it even more puzzling: usually it would be [whatever] ver 2.0

I think there is nothing wrong keeping 2.0 in French too.
2.0 refers to new generation, last generation, revisited, etc.
If you do a research on the Web, you will find the 2.0 in many instances in French, even in company names.

[..] Being 2.0 means embracing something brand new, something different, revolutionary...

Quid de 2.0 ?
@ Tony - second level ? Je ne crois pas. Je dirais plutôt 'nouvelle génération [ ère].
Here, it is arguably being used slightly incorrectly, but in essence probably means 'second-level'.
