English term or phrase: Stylish
Greetings,

What is the word used in Colloquial Persian by young people to mean “stylish”?

I.e. what do they use to describe a shirt etc. which is really the ultimate in fashion?

The slang dictionary gives ‘GQin’ as meaning stylish, but please feel free to ignore if unhelpful – it may well be distorted beyond recognition.

All the best, and many thanks,

Simon
