In a disheveled manner; with a messy or disorganized appearance.
From 'dishevel' plus the adverbial suffix '-ly' (from Old English '-lice,' meaning in the manner of). This adverb formation allows 'dishevel' to modify verbs, describing how an action is performed in a disheveled way.
The adverb 'dishevely' is quite rare in modern English, but it appears in older literature to describe someone moving with abandon or carelessness—walking 'dishevely' through a room meant moving without concern for propriety.
