Fun fact: If you know your Japanese (or spend too long on Wikipedia), you’d realize the entire show, title, plot, and meaning of overall is based on a silly pun about clothes!
According to director Imaishi, much of the plot is based on his observation that the Japanese manner of pronouncing "fascio" (ファッショ fassho) is nearly the same as the word "fashion" (ファッション fasshon), his observation that the pronunciation of the Japanese words "school uniform" (制服 seifuku) and "conquest" (征服 seifuku) are identical, and that the titular kiru may mean "kill" (キル), "to cut" (切る), or "to wear" (着る).   – Wikipedia

To take Wikipedia’s messy explanation and make it simple – Kill la Kill in katakana (the phonetic Japanese word system) is said Kiru ra Kiru orキルラキル . The Kiru (キル) can be translated to “kill” (like it’s said in English) or also as “to cut” or “to wear” So there are a few ways you could take this translation but the most popular one online is:

“Cut to Wear” with undertones of badassery with kill.

So wait, the title is about kill but also about cutting something to wear it. Like...making clothes or possibly cosplay? Yes. It's been about the outfits all along.
