Word Origin & Etymology

Formed in English from the adjective 'gorgeous' (borrowed in the late 15th century from Middle French 'gorgias', meaning 'elegant' or 'fond of dress', likely related to 'gorge' meaning 'throat' or 'bosom', in reference to ornaments worn there) plus the native suffix '-ness'.
