Etymology

The term 'waisted' comes from the noun 'waist', which originated from the Old French word 'waist', itself derived from the Latin word 'vinculum', meaning 'bond' or 'tie'. Over time, 'waist' evolved to refer specifically to the part of the body between the ribs and hips. The use of 'waisted' as an adjective relates to fashion and garment design, indicating a structure that emphasizes or is tailored around the waist. This stylistic choice has been prevalent in various fashion movements, particularly those that seek to create an hourglass figure, popularized in Western fashion since the 19th century.
