Etymology

The word 'getup' originates from the combination of 'get' and 'up', which began to be used in English around the mid-19th century. The 'get' part pertains to the action of becoming or reaching a state, while 'up' indicates a rise or elevation. Over time, 'getup' evolved from simply referring to the act of rising to defining a specific style or manner of dress or a casual outfit. The informal nature of the term has allowed it to maintain its usage primarily in spoken and colloquial contexts, often carrying a connotation of creativity or distinctiveness in fashion.
