Describe the appearance of Eliza when she met Higgins for the first time?
Answers
Explanation:
Eliza Doolittle is a "flower girl" who lives in poverty in a poor area of London.
She is a typical working class woman who would never find access to London's high society. Her dialect puts her right into the category of the lower class.
Eliza's pronunciation of words and phrases are almost unintelligible to anyone who is not familiar with the particular London accent.
Also she is not an attractive woman. Her age is assumed between eighteen or twenty but hardly older.
Most of the time she wears a little sailor hat of black straw that has long been exposed to the dust and soot of London and has seldom, if ever, been brushed. Her shoddy black coat reaches nearly to her knees and is shaped to her waist. She wears a brown skirt with a coarse apron. Her boots are very old and worn out. She is no doubt as clean as she can afford to be, but compared to 'ladies' she is very dirty.
Her hair has a musty colour and can hardly be natural. It needs a washing rather badly and her teeth need the service of a dentist.
On the one side she seems not have any certain personality or unique appearance. But looking at her enormous temper and her unabashedly talking to the people she sells her flowers to she is given more character as any insignificant little girl somewhere in the streets of London. Added to those aspects she also is a very hysterical, wild and sensible person.
Answer:
Liza has a hat with 3 ostrich feathers of orange, sky blue and red. She has a nearly clean apron and the shoddy coat has been tidied a little.
