Interesting. I think of elegance as more like being graceful. Both in how you carry yourself (elegant people have great posture, head held high and seem to float through a room, no hard footsteps, never clumsy - so I am totally out, lol!) and in how you interact with other people (graciously, politely). I don't think of "elegant" as stiff at all, quite the opposite in fact.

Nancy Reagan or Kitty Carlisle

Interestingly both of the people who come to mind are Mormon. Just warm, friendly, open women, always well dressed without trying too hard, and caring, eloquent conversationalists. I think it is more in how you carry yourself than how you look, personally

She lives in Monte Carlo. She's beautiful, and naturally so. She's Italian and only wears The best Italian fashion -Prada, Versace, etc... dripping in beautiful jewels given to her as gifts from different dignitaries. Jet setting all over the world, and one of a very glamourous, vanishing breed. She is wonderfully kind, and very sincere. She is a well regarded soprano in the opera world...

You fart in public at work?

Elegance is the way someone moves, holds her body and expresses herself.

Usually it is associated with slimness, but not always.
