"Dress cheesy, dance classy."

"Dress cheesy, dance classy."
Do you think the expression is grammatically correct? And then cheesy and classy are adverbs? Thank you so much as always and take good care.

As expressed they are not grammatically correct, technically. However if one wants to consider an ellipsis, as is often the case for something in motto form, as this is, it works. Dress (in a) cheesy (style), dance (in a) classy (style).
