Her hair is styled in intricate, flowing locks, framing her delicate features. She wears a **flowing blue gown** with delicate lace and floral patterns, emphasizing her youthful beauty and sophistication. The gown's fabric should shimmer subtly, reflecting the light in a way that enhances her figure.

**Visual Details:**

- Position her in a three-quarter view, slightly turned towards the viewer, allowing the gown to cascade around her, creating dynamic lines that lead the eye.
- She is set against a **circular frame** that mimics the decorative borders typical in Mucha's work, with intricate Art Nouveau patterns and motifs like flowers, vines, and peacock feathers.

- Use soft, diffused lighting to give the painting a dreamlike quality, with the light source subtly highlighting her features and the gown's contours.
- The background should transition from darker shades to lighter, creating depth and placing the focus on her.

**Mood:**
- The overall mood should be one of serene beauty and timeless charm, capturing the essence of Mucha's romanticism with an undercurrent of sensuality.
