Etymology

The word 'curvy' originates from the Middle English term 'curv', which means 'to bend'. The transformation of 'curvy' into 'curviest' follows the common grammatical rules of English for forming comparative and superlative adjectives. 'Curvy' became popular in the late 20th century as cultural attitudes shifted towards body positivity and the celebration of diverse body images. The suffix '-est' is added to denote the highest degree of a particular quality, in this case, the prominence of curves. The evolution of language reflects changing societal standards, and 'curviest' has emerged as a term of empowerment for those embracing their natural body shapes.
