Veṣasaṃyuta (वेषसंयुत) refers to “being dressed gorgeously”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.4.5 (“Kārttikeya is crowned”).—Accordingly, after the Kṛttikās spoke to Kārttikeya: “[...] Kumāra reached the foot of a Nyagrodha tree at Kailāsa in the fast chariot along with Nandin seated to his right. [...] The thirty goddesses Lakṣmī and others stood in front, along with chaste ladies whose husbands and sons were alive and Pārvatī stood ahead of them. At the bidding of Pārvatī, the smiling celestial damsels, Rambhā and others, dressed gorgeously (veṣasaṃyuta), were engaged in singing and dancing. [...]”.
