Definition
天衣无缝 is a four-character idiom (成语) that literally means 'the heavenly robe has no seam'. It describes a plan, argument, or story that is so perfectly crafted that there is no flaw or weak point — like a garment made for the gods, woven without a single seam. You use it to praise something that's flawless in execution or logic.
f.e.
flawlessperfectly seamless (of a plan, argument, performance, etc.)
