Something that's glitzy is very flashy and flamboyant, like the glitzy outfit you wear to the prom: a hot pink suit covered in shiny purple sequins.
Glitzy is from glitz, or “glitter” in Yiddish, and the German root glitzern, “sparkle,” and it's perfect for describing glittery, sparkly things. You might imagine Oscar parties as glitzy events (and show business itself as a glitzy industry). But there's also an undercurrent of gaudiness implied in the word — an inappropriate amount of glitter and shine: “Can you believe that glitzy outfit he wore to the funeral?”
