I would also agree, that The woman in the blue dress is the complete subject
The= article
woman=subject
(in the blue dress)= prepositional phrase... in being the preposition, the being the article word, blue being the adjective, and dress being the object of the preposition
hurried= would act as your verb
across the street= another prepositional phrase
