Definition
雍容华贵 is a four-character idiom (成语) describing a person's bearing or style as elegant, dignified, and luxurious — often used for women in formal attire or in artistic depictions of nobility. The literal components suggest 'harmonious and composed' (雍容) combined with 'splendid and noble' (华贵). It carries a positive, admiring tone and is typically used in literary or descriptive contexts, not in casual conversation.
f.e.
elegant and dignifiedwith a luxurious bearing
