What fly means in Gen Z slang is stylish, attractive, cool, fashionable, impressive, though it is somewhat retro slang from older hip hop era that Gen Z may still understand but often uses newer terms like drip, fire, slay, lit, to convey similar meaning, with fly being understood but not as commonly used as newer slang. In Gen Z slang, if someone says that outfit is fly, they mean stylish and attractive, similar to saying it's drip or fire. Gen Z may use fly ironically or as throwback to 90s hip hop culture, as Gen Z slang evolves quickly and prefers terms like bussin, slaps, no cap, bet, but fly is still recognized as meaning cool and fashionable. For example, Gen Z might say she is fly meaning she is stylish and confident. So in Gen Z slang, fly means cool, stylish, attractive, fashionable, impressive, similar to drip meaning fashionable style, but fly is somewhat older and less frequent than drip, fire, lit, slay, which are more current. Gen Z also uses fly as verb to mean leaving quickly, as in I gotta fly, meaning gotta go. So in Gen Z slang, fly primarily means stylish and cool, though often replaced by newer synonyms like drip and fire, but still understood as compliment for appearance or style.
