classic
...
She is the epitome of elegance and refinement. The classic personality is very controlled, from the time of her youth; she expresses her heart and soul in her appearance. She does not like chaotic environments...it will always bring out the worst in her. As a person, she is warm and caring. She is always sincere.
...
Her body type is as follows:
Height is average (5'4" to 5'7"). Figure will be balanced and symmetrical. Her appearance is one of a mature adult, never "girlish". Body is not too thin, too delicate or too sturdy
...
Personality Profile:
Emotional nature, balanced, controlled and rational. Old fashioned person, home body.
...
Clothing:
Elegant, refined, fashionable, dignified, clean simple lines. Softly tailored or soft flowing. Ensemble dressing, not usually mix and match. Never trendy, faddish or severe in style. No crisp, bouffant lines.
...
Fabrics for her:
Matte finishes or low luster are best. Fabric weights are moderate. Smooth knots and double knits are great. Refined textures such as silk, soft woolen fabrics, cottons, smooth knits

Patterns:

Shopping tips:
A planned budget is ideal. Because classics need to purchase quality clothing, your motto needs to be "Less clothes for more money". Focus on a base color scheme, especially if money is limited for clothing purchases. Investing in solids and refined fabrics are the key. Keep an eye on fashion trends, not fads, to stay current and fashionable
