Ukimakuri/ukimakuru: uku = to rise, makuru = a lot

According to this, it means something/someone that sticks out like a sore thumb. The example given is going to a party wearing a casual dress while everyone else wears formal dresses.

It means doing something different from others or wearing clothes absolutely different on certain occasion.
They had given very nice examples.
