She may be somewhat more used to these fashions, enough, at least, not to feel uncomfortable walking around wearing so comparatively little, but a part of her is still aware of how indecent this would have been back home. Still, there are women here who wear far less and it's inconsequential; with that being the case, she's determined not to think too much of it. "You're looking very well yourself."

Following along, she really isn't sure what to expect, or what it is that Thomas has done. She certainly wouldn't have guessed something like this, brightening when he tells her what it's for. "You have?" she asks. "I don't think you've gone mad, I think it's wonderful."
