There's an exercise in which I shall write short sentences about the
appearance of a few children displayed in small pictures. I wondered how a
sentence expressing the following must be constructed:

"That girl with the beautiful, short dress and the long hair."

Here I have two entities in the appearance of this girl which I want to
describe. They both have to be put into nominal phrases. Therefore, I think it
would be something along these lines:

"あの長い髪の

(?)

綺麗で短い身なりの

女の子です。"

However, as indicated by the questionmark, I wonder how these two nominal
phrases shall be connected. Is there another connective particle or the like
necessary?

question
grammar
How can I express this collection of attributes
> That girl with the beautiful, short dress and the long hair.

At first, the given phrase is a noun phrase, not a sentence because it has not
a verb, so the interpretation for the phrase in Japanese must end with noun or
"女の子 _girl_ " not "です".

that girl with the beautiful, short dress and the long hair  
= that girl with (the beautiful and short dress + the long hair)  
= that girl with the beautiful and short dress + that girl with the long hair  
= あの綺麗な短いドレスを着た女の子 + あの長い髪の女の子  
= あの綺麗な短いドレスを着た(?)長い髪の女の子

Of course あの綺麗な短いドレス **の** 女の子 is also good instead of あの綺麗な短いドレスを着た女の子.

After filling in the blank indicated by the question mark, possible answers
are like:  
A: あの綺麗な短いドレスを着た、そして、長い髪の女の子  
B: あの綺麗な短いドレスを **着た** 長い髪の女の子 (or あの綺麗な短いドレス **の** 長い髪の女の子)

As for the part where the question mark is placed, そして for _and_ is good like
phrase A, but we usually connect the two nominal phrases like phrase B without
using any connective particle or the like.

And, if we read phrase B or speak it aloud as a whole, we usually **pause a
moment** just after the first phrase with "ドレスを着た or ドレスの" in order to show
that the whole phrase is made up of two nominal phrases.
