unruffled

Not at all flustered

Unruffled means calm and composed, not agitated or disturbed.

Someone who remains unruffled under pressure keeps their cool when others might panic: She was completely unruffled by the criticism.

The word suggests a smooth surface—feathers or water—that hasn't been disturbed.

An unruffled demeanor projects quiet confidence.
