waistline
Torso's narrowest part
The waistline is the narrowest part of the human torso, typically just above the navel, where pants and skirts are often fitted.
In clothing, a garment's waistline is where the bodice meets the skirt: The dress has a dropped waistline.
Figuratively, waistline refers to body weight or girth: I need to watch my waistline.
