Specific examples and quotes of elegance

"She had a principal elegance about her, a smoothness of motion, accentuated by the nonchalantly flowing fabrics around her high and slender stature. In a way, she was both, lightning and a lightning rod, depending on the occasion. She was a receiver, transmitter, and scanner. Seeing the world through Stella’s eyes would be unlike any customary perception. She wielded a tremendous range, which augmented the vastness of her presence. This was, even by strangers, easily perceivable from without."
