Pro Tip 1/3

Describes someone negatively based on their appearance, often unfair or superficial.

Calling her a frump just because she prefers comfort over trends is quite judgmental.

Pro Tip 2/3

Perceptions of 'frump' change over time; what seemed unfashionable before may now be trendy.

Vintage styles are in, so she's no frump by today’s standards.

Pro Tip 3/3

Don't confuse 'frump' with someone who is casually dressed. It implies lack of style, not comfort.

Wearing sweatpants doesn't make you a frump if you style them well.
