shapeliness
Attractive bodily proportions
Shapeliness is the quality of having an attractive, well-proportioned form.
The word typically describes the human body, especially a woman's figure with pleasing curves: admiring the shapeliness of her legs.
It can apply to other things with appealing contours—a vase, a sculpture, a hillside—but bodily shapeliness remains the dominant use.
