Broad Shoulders describes characters with noticeably wide shoulders, always wider than the waist and often wider than the character's hips. Muscular characters in particular frequently have broad shoulders.
Broad shoulders are often considered "masculine" - as, on average, male bodies tend to have wider shoulders than hips, while the opposite (wider hips than shoulders) is more common to female bodies, and so considered "feminine" - however, it's not rare for a woman to have broader shoulders. Broad shoulders can be seen in a wide variety of feminine, curvy figures, and women with broad shoulders are considered "elegant" in fashion and modelling.
