high cut

Shows more thigh

High cut describes a style where fabric is cut to expose more of the leg, hip, or side of the body.

Most commonly applied to swimsuits, leotards, and underwear where the leg opening rises above the natural hip line: high-cut bikini bottoms, high-cut one-piece.

The style elongates the leg visually and was especially popular in 1980s fashion.
