Serving
Stable🎒High SchoolDefinition
Giving a strong, impressive performance or look. 'Serving looks' means delivering great fashion. 'Serving face' means great expressions. From ballroom/drag culture.
Translation for Parents
If someone is 'serving,' they're delivering something impressive — an outfit, a performance, an attitude. 'She's serving' = 'she looks/performs amazing.' It's restaurant terminology for personal excellence. Your kid is the dish. Wait, that sounds weird. Moving on.
Examples
“She's serving looks at this party”
“She's wearing an incredibly impressive outfit at this party”
“He served face in that yearbook photo”
“He looked great in his yearbook photo”
Cringe Score
Your kid will cringe
Telling your spouse 'you're serving tonight' before date night is a power move. Confidence required.
