Rubenesque 

A term for a woman with a body similar to the women painted by the artist Peter Paul Rubens. His painting called "Judgment of Paris" is a good example. The word has nothing at all to do with Ruben Studdard as it was in use long before American Idol existed. The women of Rubens' paintings typically had hourglass figures and were chubby, but not obese.

Rubenesque 

A woman that has a similar body shape to the style of women painted by Rubens. Not just any slightly overweight woman. Not just any girl who has round hips or a bum. The women in Rubens paintings were often very plump, with large round hips. While it was once a compliment, now it often a criticism or back handed compliment.
