bees knees

Definition

The absolute peak of excellence; something so good it makes you wonder how life existed before it. A vintage compliment that's somehow still charming, like a well-preserved 1920s speakeasy.

Example Usage

Those vintage leather jackets are the bee's knees—I've never seen craftsmanship like that before.
