What does BAGGY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Loose and hanging in folds, like a bag, rather than fitting closely.
Baggy describes clothing, skin or fabric that hangs loosely instead of following the shape of the body underneath, often because it is cut larger than needed or has stretched out of shape. Trousers, sweaters and eyes can all be called baggy, though the word carries a slightly different feeling in each case, from a deliberate fashion choice to a sign of tiredness or age. In fashion writing baggy is often contrasted with fitted or tailored, marking a looser, more relaxed style of cut. The word derives directly from bag, with the -y suffix simply meaning full of or resembling that shape.
