Morphology

gorgeously = gorgeous (transparent) = gorgeous + ly

Formed by the productive adverbial suffix '-ly' added to the adjective 'gorgeous', so the meaning is directly derived from the adjective.

Etymology

Gorgeously comes from an old word like gorge meaning 'throat', because long ago people used it for showy clothes or jewelry worn around the neck. So think of bright, rich decoration at the throat — gorgeously means 'in a very beautiful or splendid way'.
