Fashion magazines are great to find that many words together can become a compound adjective as long as they are hyphenated. Here are some examples from Cosmopolitan:
"200 make-you-sexy swimsuits"
"fake-tan goodies: it's all about an I-can't-believe-it's-real-Mediterranean glow"
"it's nearly time for seduce-him shorts, tease-him tops, babe-licious bikinis"
Margaret Atwood uses a lot of these constructions in her short story "Hairball" and the effect is great. Some examples from this story:
"drop-dead stare"
"an agressive touch-me-if-you-dare suede outfit"
"a lick-my-neck silk shirt open at the throat"

*Men don't get let easily either-badly ironed shirts are the highest-rated interview don't for guys, followed by simon Cowell-esque high-waisted trousers.
