She was elegantly dressed ; she wore a muslin dress with full panels , a square indian shawl embroidered at the corners with gold thread and silk flowers , a leghorn straw hat and a single bracelet , one of those thick gold chains which were then just beginning to be fashionable 她服饰典雅，穿着一条镶满花边的细纱长裙，肩上披一块印度方巾，四角全是金镶边和丝绣的花朵，戴着一顶意大利草帽，还戴着一只手镯，那是当时刚刚时行的一种粗金链子。
