Morphology

curviness = curvy (transparent) = curve + y + ness

This is a regular noun formation from the adjective 'curvy', meaning the state or quality of being curvy.

Etymology

The word curviness comes from the simple word curve meaning 'bend' and the ending -ness meaning 'quality', so it describes the quality of having smooth, rounded shapes. That's why we speak of the curviness of a sculpture or a person's body to mean the rounded, bending lines they have.
