Best Answer

Anachronistic is the word that best describes a woman wearing an Elizabethan gown and ruff hailing a cab. In Elizabethan times there were no such things as cabs, therefore the dress and the activity do not match.

*The earliest "hackney cabs" (horse-drawn) appeared shortly after Elizabeth's death (1603), and by 1654 they were beginning to be regulated.
