dernier cri

Where it comes from

Borrowed from French dernier cri.

noun derniers cris

  1. The latest sensation; the last word, the newest or ultimate expression or example (of something). Here and there were certain unmistakable derniers cris, some of them undoubtedly destined - had the world pursued its expected course - to become the rage of tomorrow; others, I would say, a dead loss from their very inception.
