What it means
Means someone is seriously attractive, the kind that makes you do a double take. Said about people you fancy, and sometimes their outfit or vibe too. Context does the work, because fit can also mean athletic, but if someone’s saying it with proper or well, they’re chatting about looks, not cardio.
Usage examples
"You clock that new barista at the café by the station? Proper fit, mate. I spilled my flat white trying to act cool, absolute state of me."
"Did you see Sophie's new boyfriend at the wedding in Cornwall, proper fit, she walked in with him and my cousin Karen dropped her glass of prosecco on the dance floor."
"The lifeguard at the Brighton pool was so fit half the gym pretended to need swimming lessons, the manager finally swapped him for a sixty-year-old man with a clipboard."
