Description

The word "slutty" is a rude and strongly disapproving word used to describe someone, their clothes, or their behavior as too sexual in a way the speaker judges negatively. It can suggest that a person seems to have many sexual partners, but it is also often used for revealing clothing, flirtatious behavior, or a style meant to look sexy.

The word is usually used as an insult, especially about women, and it often carries shame and judgment rather than a neutral description. Because of that, it is generally best avoided in polite or respectful conversation.
