COLLARED Meaning and
Definition
-
Collared is an adjective that describes something or someone as having a collar or wearing a collar. It refers to the presence or use of a collar, which is a band, strip, or ring of fabric, leather, or metal worn around the neck or another part of the body for various purposes. A collar is typically fastened by buttons, hooks, or a clasp.
In a literal sense, collared can be used to describe animals or pets that are wearing a collar. These collars often serve as identification tags or as a means to attach a leash for control and safety. Collars for animals are usually made of durable materials to withstand outdoor conditions.
However, the term collared can also be used metaphorically or figuratively. For instance, it can refer to an individual who is under someone's control or dominion. This usage implies that someone is figuratively "collared" like a pet on a leash, restricted or guided by another person's authority or power.
Moreover, collared can be employed to describe objects or garments that have a collar as a distinguishing feature. This can include clothing items such as shirts, dresses, or jackets that are designed with a collar that frames and supports the neckline.
In summary, collared pertains to anything or anyone that possesses, wears, or is associated with a collar, be it literal or figurative.
