gauzily
In sheer fashion
In a gauzy manner—with the lightness, softness, or hazy transparency of gauze fabric.
The word applies literally to fabrics and figuratively to anything dreamlike or indistinct: Sunlight filtered gauzily through the curtains, Her memories of that summer remained gauzily romantic.
