body lines
Shape of figure
Body lines are the contours and curves that define a form's shape, particularly in automotive and industrial design.
A car's body lines—the creases, ridges, and sculpted surfaces running along its exterior—give it visual character and distinguish one model from another: The new sedan has aggressive body lines.
In fashion and figure drawing, body lines refer to the natural curves and proportions of the human form.
