They were very friendly over the cocktails and the food, and Lena, dressed in bright green, a colour that seemed to throw her red-gold hair and light brown eyes, her scarlet mouth and white neck, into brilliant relief, was lovelier than ever. (J. B. Priestley, ‘Angel Pavement’, ch. VII) — Они пили коктейли и разговаривали самым дружеским образом, и Лина, в ярко-зеленом платье, чудесно оттенявшем рыжее золото ее волос, светло-карие глаза, алый рот и белую шею, была красивее, чем когда-либо.

Cronin, ‘A Thing of Beauty’, part IV, ch. XIV) — Эта случайная встреча воскресила в его памяти первые годы жизни во Франции и, несмотря на свою мимолетность, заставила его лишь острее почувствовать все преимущества своей нынешней жизни, показала, какими людьми он был окружен тогда.
...he noticed that her hair was greying fast. Her face was more distinctly lined and her hollow cheeks threw her bone structure into strong relief. (G. Gordon, ‘Let the Day Perish’, ch. XVII) —...а он подумал о том, как быстро стали седеть у Мэри волосы. На похудевшем лице ее резче выступили широкие скулы, яснее обозначились морщины.
