EN: fancy; elegant; lavish
When something is extra, but in a good, high-class way. Think of a debutante's ball, a fiesta queen's gown, or that one tita who shows up to a family reunion looking like she's going to the Met Gala. It's not just 'maganda,' it's 'magarbo'—it has production value.
From Spanish 'garbo' (elegance, grace).
Often used to describe events, clothing, or decorations.
