At the official function organised for the attending dignitaries, guests arrived in scrumptious attire for the banquet.

  1. A.synergistic
  2. B.stentorian
  3. C.sumptuous✓ Correct
  4. D.scrimpy

Explanation

'Scrumptious' means extremely tasty or delicious, used for food, not attire. For attire at an official banquet, 'sumptuous' is appropriate, meaning splendid, expensive-looking, and luxurious. 'Synergistic' relates to combined effects being greater than the sum of individual effects. 'Stentorian' refers to a loud, powerful voice. 'Scrimpy' means meagre or scanty. Therefore, 'sumptuous' correctly improves the sentence in the context of grand banquet attire.
