Translation

Their senses overwhelmed by the joy of having His physical association, the gopīs could not prevent their hair, their dresses and the cloths covering their breasts from becoming disheveled. Their garlands and ornaments scattered, O hero of the Kuru dynasty.

Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)

Their senses overwhelmed by the joy of having His physical association, the gopīs could not prevent their hair, their dresses and the cloths covering their breasts from becoming disheveled. Their garlands and ornaments scattered, O hero of the Kuru dynasty. KB 10.33.17 When Kṛṣṇa touched the different parts of their bodies, the gopīs felt surcharged with spiritual energy. They could not adjust their loosened clothes, although they tried to keep them adjusted properly. Their hair and garments became scattered, and their ornaments loosened as they forgot themselves in the company of Kṛṣṇa.

Purport (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)

Enjoying with Krsna the gopis became full of bliss. Their senses disturbed by the bliss, they could not arrange their disheveled bodices, hair, cloth, garlands or ornaments.

Purport (Jiva Goswami)

Because the gopīs’ lost control from intense joy, the rāsa dance slackened. Because of the great joy of associating with his limbs, their senses became confused. The symptoms are described: their hair, linen garments, and the cloth covering their bodices became disarrayed.

Purport (Sanatana Goswami)

Because the gopīs’ lost control from intense joy, the rāsa dance slackened. Because of the great joy of associating with his limbs, their senses became confused. The symptoms are described: their hair, linen garments, and their upper cloth or their bodices or both became disarrayed. This was suitable because they were especially endowed with great prema (vraja-striyaḥ). This shows their great bliss. That is also indicated by the prefix pra in pramuda. You can understand this, hero of the Kurus. Or the Kuru dynsty is most fortunate, since you have a bhāva similar to the gopis’ bhāva which made them most successful.
