Etymology

Inherited from Middle English: schaply

Inherited from Old English: *ġesċeaplīċ

Cognate with Old English: ġesċeaplīċe

In summary

From Middle English schaply, schappely (“well-shaped, beautiful, attractive”), perhaps from Old English *ġesċeaplīċ (“according to design, proper, fit”) (suggested by Old English ġesċeaplīċe (“properly, fitting, well”)), equivalent to shape + -ly.
