Acerca de ずくめ

Originally stemming from the suffix use of ()く 'completely', or 'using solely', and the addition of め, ずくめ came to be preferentially written as hiragana, with ず replacing づ. This structure may be translated as 'completely (A)', 'all in (A)', or 'nothing but (A)'. Generally, it is attached directly to nouns, and expresses that (A) is to such an extent that nothing apart from (A) can be seen, felt, or noticed.

In cases where ずくめ will directly modify the following noun, の will come between ずくめ and that noun.

Although づくめ may occasionally be seen in older literature, it is mostly considered incorrect kana usage these days.

While ずくめ may be used in either positive or negative contexts, it is mainly seen in set expressions, so is best used with combinations that you have already heard or read.

Fun Fact

()くし is another older structure that is used to express things that are separate, but are grouped together. This is usually translated as 'all sorts of (A)', or 'all kinds of (A)'. It is the conjunctive form of the う-Verb ()くす 'to be exhaustive' with a voiced pronunciation of the つ.
