demure

a young woman that is well spoken with manners and can be outwardly shy/reserved. Innocent in thought and therefore attractive in a way that is unknown to her. She doesn't seek to attract, but attraction follows her due to her coy, playful, serious but shy behaviour. Many women are not like this, but many women of the old times were eg. Jane Austin period.

she appeared coy and demure.
