O my dear Vidura, the Lord’s waist was covered with yellow cloth resembling the saffron dust of the kadamba flower, and it was encircled by a well-decorated belt. His chest was decorated with the śrīvatsa marking and a necklace of unlimited value.
Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)
O Vidura! The Lord wore cloth the color of golden kadamba pollen around his waist and a belt. On his chest marked with the Śrīvatsa mark was a necklace of unlimited value. [Note: This verse could also indicate Kṛṣṇa.]
O Vidura (vatsa)! He had a necklace dear to the place on his chest having the Śrīvatsa mark.
