What's the definition of a classy woman?


Humble, kind, stands by her words, backs them up with actions, carries herself with confidence, not quick to loose control of her emotions. Over all classy isn't just the way someone looks, its a way of acting, you can put anyone in nice clothes and if they aren't classy it would be "lipstick on a pig" as they say. Where are someone who is classy can be in jeans and a t-shirt and still be as such.
But as far as looks, I see classy as not showing much skin, no wild patterns, or flamboyant colors. Letting who they are and how they carry themselves be the center of attention, no their clothing. Their clothing doesn't need to catch your eye, they do that with her confidence.
I love your explanation ☺️
Elegance and grace.

hmmm... I think we all know what we consider a classy woman. I think most of us probably would even agree on what that looked like. But defining it... that's actually quite hard.
A classy woman:
-Carries herself with a self-assured, muted dignity. She respects herself, and takes it for granted that everyone else will respect her as well.
- Is honest, loyal, and above board in her relationships (all kinds of relationships)
-Is humble. I don't care what you look like, or how classy you may be by any other metric. If you don't have humility, you cannot be classy.
- Is tactful
-Looks well manicured
-Is forgiving, doesn't hold grudges and tries to avoid unnecessary drama. She has no need for drama for entertainment or excitement sake.
-is open-minded and broad-minded.
-Never picks on those who are weaker or less fortunate that she is.
-Empathetic.
Sexy. Classy is very much like sexy. But leaves something to be imagined (or for a special someone to enjoy in private).
Hahaha, may I ask why the two thumbs down? I thought this was one of my least controversial answers. Ohhh well.
I always had this idea that Jad Pinkett was as classy of a woman as I have ever seen. This was when I was 5 and I just assumed that she was classy for some reason that I never knew until I got old enough to understand why I liked her so much. Her movie personas, to me, were classy. This was coming from a 5 year old black girl who didn't understand the context of the movies that I was watching. But I internalized what I saw in the movies and emulated her behavior until I was about 13 years old. Then my own personality and ideas started to form who I was as a person. Now that Im 21 years old I get called "classy" often. I think its all in the attitude really. If I had to name what qualities make me appear "classy"it would probably be the confidence and articulation that I internalized from watching Jada. For some reason Jada was as close to a strong man as a woman could be in my eyes, which is why I had always liked her so much. I think that being classy is to hold yourself to the same standard as you would hold a man you want to be with. Handle your business. Stay calm even when you want to freak out. Don't be a crowd pleaser. Don't be afraid to stand up to others. Be tough when it calls for it, but be kind. Be the one who takes care of everybody. Be open and loving, gracious, thoughtful, I could go on and on. I don't know why Im like this but for as often as I get called "classy" I must be doing something right
Classy for me is a woman who is confident in herself, doesn't show off her body just to get looks, follows her faith and is pleasant to be around. Any feminist who follows the current wave of extreme feminism to me is not classy. I'm not saying ALL feminists are not classy, just the few who feel they have to take their shirts off and write dumb shit on their bodies like "still not asking for it". Our society already knows that, not all men are pigs, the ones who are will not listen to your message anyways and not covering up is indecent exposure, which is a crime. Sorry for my rant lol
A woman that doesn't dress provocatively, doesn't swear much, doesn't sleep around, has good morals and ethics (goes to church, active in the community, helps people etc), calm/composed, respectful and has good manners. These are the traits in a woman that I consider a classy.
To me humility is the largest form of class. A woman that doesn't ramble about how precious she is but you know she is and let's people figure it out for themselves along with having a good sense of fashion and sexy feminine traits.
Self-respect. It translates into all other aspects-
self-respecting girls don't post slutty selfies, they don't send nudes. They don't walk around with boobs and ass hanging out in a street. They're careful about who they date, they don't sleep around.
When I think classy I think:
1. Cultured
2. Dresses stylishly
3. Knowledgeable about the world
4. Carries herself with poise
The type of girl who dresses up because that's who she is, rather than because that's who she is rather than being somewhat ostentatious.
Intelligent, with lots of topics to talk about. Funny, yet not vulgar or ridicuolous. And I must say that clothes play a big role here. Someone who dresses with very short or tight clothes or has problems mixing colors is not and will never be elgant
"Someone who dresses with very short or tight clothes or has problems mixing colors is not and will never be elgant"
Agreed!
A kindhearted person, loyal, always there for others, confident. All the positive characteristics you can think of
Great answer 😊
You're so welcome!!! 😃
A classy woman has these traits:
Soft spoken.
Confident.
Takes pride/care of her appearance.
Not desperate for attention.
Respectful.
Modest
Uncommon
Thoughtful
In control of her emotional expression
More of a leader than a follower
The style matters less than the attitude. Being classy is, above all, the way you act. Being polite but not submissive. Having manners in all circumstances. Knowing how to move, to do things without looking vulgar. Taking care of you, to make sure you look your best as much as possible.
Of course the outfit counts. Having well fitted clothes and knowing how to wear it. Nothing vulgar, not bound by any trend.
It's subjective. But a classy woman is about how you carry yourself, for me. She isn't conceited, not self centered. She handled her responsibilities like a professional, she can do an array of different things. Has ambition and drive, is intelligent and can make common sense/rationally and logically sound decisions. And is humble.. that's class
Women who know about their self-worth, women who don’t need constant validation from a male, know what to wear and when, doesn’t act mean or disrespectful towards male approaches/requests and knows how to decline respectfully, not making his partner jealous, not trying to seek attention, doesn’t constantly swear, plays calm when approaching a male etc.
A woman who gives off an energy of excitement and sophistication.
She has learned and adopted lady-like traits. Polite, attractive, demure, gracious, quiet, generous, engaging, and has a sense of humor. Her entire focus just isn't about her own belly button.
Why quiet?
@Twinkle6696 - Cuz too many women today seem to think that every little thing that pops into their little brain needs to be verbalized. It just doesn't.
Someone who has good manners. Acts like a lady. Has a good sense of style and good morals.
Dressed to the nines. Smelling wonderfully. Tastefully made-up. Cooly confidant. Solidly intellectuel, is my definition of a Classy Woman.
Someone who is above nonsense, down to earth and genuine. Either you get onboard on her level with a respectable amount of maturity, or leave.
To me the late actress Audrey Hepburn is the personification of a classy woman.
how she acts and dresses ! if she talks , looks and acts towards everyone that she cares about them then that is a classy woman ! thanks
A classy woman is a woman who has a great personality, who is a team player with their man and is willing to listen to his ideas for long term success, and basically a woman who is open minded and doesn't care so much what her friends think.
Polite, humble, and educated. Has some sense of fashion and takes care of her health
A woman who is selfless. A woman that takes the higher road. Polite, responsible.. to name a few things in my opinion.
A feminine women who isn't afraid of anyone, thinks before speaking and acts in the best interest of herself and her family.
A woman who handles her self well, takes care of herself, do not have out burst in public, has good hygiene and feminine hygiene, respects her body. Etc 😌
Lacey evans from wwe is a stereotype of a classy woman so something like her
WWE is all class.
Your guess is as good as mine... a woman on the top of her female hierarchy?
Someone who gets me LSD and breaks the fabric of reality while on it together, while watching Crocodile Dundee with the directors commentary on.
My favorite type of women :)
It's by dressing elegantly, and not just that, but having manners and being ladylike, also learning etiquette and being polite.
This one! ❤
A classy woman has self respect, confident, good humor, knows what she wants, respectful of others, and knows how to be herself.
knows how to behave, how to treat people, how to dress and how to control her anger and other emotions and should never gossip
The hat and nice clothes work too with not too revealing clothing and she is humble and not bitchy.
Submissive, sweet, trustworthy, intelligent, clean and knows when to shut up and not speak.
Traditionally, a woman who was born into an estate and a title.
A woman that celebrates and dances at pro choice rally

Well heeled good personal grooming regime clothes pressed. For me classy ends when we're having sex. classy can be a turn off in bed
One who sacrifices for others, and never asks for much in return.. They're actually classy and needs to be respected..
Sophisticated, traditional, feminine, polite, and responsible. Not slutty, vulgar, or aggressive.
A woman who has traditional standrads and isn't influences by modern mores and attitudes.
A woman who's not gonna go for guys by skin color, fatter wallet, and looks. A woman who likes you for you
One that has standards and isn’t a slut
The opposite of trashy
She only dates white guys and is clean and does not sleep around much
Racist coward.
Whatever Hillary Clinton isn't.
Self respect and self care.
The definition is an illusion because classy women dont exist. Say enough words and have enough swagger and all women become hos.
@ChefCurry I disagree with that statement. Perhaps if scumbags didn't try to take advantage of every woman they meet a lot of women would not have fallen into that trap.
Haha, well maybe that has to do with the place that you're from. Don't ever feel you can get any woman you desire. That's not realistic. There are women who could run circles around you before you bat a lash.
You keep telling yourself that 😄
Doing as she pleases.
A teacher they like classes right
Ha ha ha... how cute lol 😊
your looking at it right now
Probably the opposite of me 😂
classy for me is caring compassionate
A girl who isn't a whore.
Damned if I know anymore.
I am
In Vegas on business at the moment. Am watching a gal hug a trashcan. HAMMERED!!! The guys left. Just her gal pal... guess that is modern classy?
You know what better than classy? Trashy 😂
Pale skin, no make-up, and corseted
The woman in your picture
Pays for your meal...
@Jjpayne understand women
I like this question, thank you … so
it is a woman that wears the clothes that are modest enough to be respectable but flirty enough to let you know she is a woman. Her speech is well crafted and thought out as well as her actions. She is ready to turn down a man if he is being to forward and ready to compliment a man that is being decent. She is polite and has good grooming and manners. She knows how to walk, dine, and handle her dress and herself. I would go as far as to call her a female James bond. In fact, females that bond meets at dinner parties would be very close to the definition
A woman thats not decadent.
