The part of the outline that confesses what the fabric was told to hide.
means A noticeable outward swelling or bump where a surface should otherwise be flat or even.
from Bulge traces back to the Old French 'boulge' or 'bouge,' meaning a leather bag or pouch, itself from Latin 'bulga' (a knapsack, sack of leather) — a word Latin writers sometimes guessed was borrowed from Gaulish, though that's not certain. The sense shifted from the swollen bag itself to the swollen shape it makes: something straining outward against its container, which is exactly what the word still describes today.
