hip swaying
Side-to-side movement
Hip swaying is the rhythmic side-to-side movement of the hips, typically while walking or dancing.
It can be natural, deliberately seductive, or simply a consequence of how someone moves: She walked with an exaggerated hip sway.
The phrase often carries connotations of femininity or flirtation, though anyone can do it.
