This isn't directly related, but I was looking through my dance folder earlier to reply to someone else, and I thought you might just enjoy this image.
Your q makes me think of these that answered some time ago.
What does the word "GENTLEMAN" mean for you?
How do you decide if a guy is a gentleman?
Do "nice girls" understand their true powers?
I like your q but I'm not up for a focused, deep, cerebral reply right now. I feel like anything I would say would be redundant and obvious. My TL;dr is that she knows how to carry herself, handle herself. That does not mean she is weak or vulnerable, but, rather, she knows how to use her femininity as her strength. I can't think of an appropriate idiom, etc. right now, but something about how she uses a feather, not a fist (I'm just making that up). A gentle way can actually be quite powerful.
But in general, class is versatility. Not snobbishness, elitism, but not lording one's position, power, money, etc. over others, even when it is obvious to them that there are significant differences. A classy woman never makes other feels inferior (even if/when they are). They are not bombastic, attention-seeking, wanting eyes, or eye smiles, perhaps. I like the idea, very much, of acting how one wishes the world to be, and to be treated. Elevate, don't denigrate.

I find out that with classy women it's not often about what they do, it's about what they DON'T do that makes them classy.
They don't try to bring attention to themselves, they don't dress provocatively, they don't act disrespectful or try to escalate situations, they don't curse or have tattoos ir piercings or wear unnecessary jewelry. They keep it simple, and don't brag about their looks, value or what they have done career-wise. They are humble yet confident and are capable of noticing a man who is worth their attention. They are not aggressive, but they do have a backbone and can stand up for themselves if they need to, and are not afraid to ask for help from a man when they need help.
What I have just described is the tip of the iceberg, there are plenty of characteristics that you get to observe with time if you are around them and you can usually tell the difference between a classy woman and a chameleon if you pay enough attention.
Not watching the Barbie movie! Good sense of personal style (not just wearing name brand clothes) ; holds a decent conversation; has respect for others; able to help others without getting taken advantage (of); maintains her priorities to self, family, others, job; expresses her opinions without pi$$ing off others; spends time on improving herself (mentally, physically, spiritually, and emotionally); would have enough smarts/skills/savings to maintain a decent living standard if her primary means of income disappeared for a year for two; would stop to rescue an injured dog by the side of the road.

She doesn’t insert herself in other people’s affairs, always has a good sense of priorities, and has a kind and gentle soul.
A classy woman is confident and independent, doesn't need anyone to take care of her, but doesn't mind when someone does.
Her attitude and demeanor I'd say. A classy lady is confident in her own skin, but not arrogant (doesn't feel the need to gloat about her accomplishments or put down others) kind and empathetic (but not a doormat), intelligent and an independent/free thinker that doesn't follow the crowds or trends, respectful of others' boundaries, personal space, is a good conversationalist, doesn't gossip (or at least minimizes it and puts things delicately)
One that doesn't belch, toot, back snort, spit tobacco, smile with no teeth, smack gum, trash talk, talk loud, shows her Karen side, wear clothes that show cracks that should not be legal to be seen and talks in a language that only few understand.
🤔 Think I've been around too many rednecks.How she carries herself and she doesn't act like this
https://www.youtube.com/embed/-PFRAJV_93oThis is a classy women for example
Not being a slut (a person who is easy to get in bed or sleeps around), outside of that, nothing.
People like to call others classy based on personal taste in clothing, music, demeanor, language, hobbies, etc, but thats all subjective stuff.Fit, feminine, dresses modestly, no thirst-trap pictures on social media, in fact no social media at all or set to private. No tattoos, no piercings other than earrings, natural hair color. Does not curse, is not loud or obnoxious, and doesn't do trashy things like twerking. Cannot be a single mother unless she is widowed.
A woman who is well-read and knowledgeable, purposeful, well-mannered and carries herself with great dignity.
Knowing when to speak and when to just mind her business and stay quiet.
How you carry yourself. You know what matters, what's important, you're considerate of others, you show respect, cunning, street smarts
One who can squat down on a white rug holding a glass of Burgundy and perform fellatio without ruining the carpet.
Probably stuff like Beauty, Femininity, Modesty, Charisma, etc.
Her attitude and behavior. A classy woman is someone discreet, elegant, kind, well put together, modest.
Atheistically that's class.

Dress to impresswell mannered behavior is enough to be classy. the lists here i disagree with.
Central American, Arab, Mexican or SE Asian women. It's the culture. Zero identity crisis, and they know their power, but they don't have to verbally scream it in your face daily. They're comfortable in their own skin.
