There's many ways to do gesture. That is basically the simplest way and it's not wrong, the arm's gesture is a sweeping motion down like that. This Kevin Chen image describes it in more detail.

>flow in a figure is not artificially smoothed out forms
That's actually pretty much exactly what it is. It is a rhythm that runs through the major form and ignores the small lumps and bumps. If you miss this main flow you miss the whole thing. Once you get the flow blocked in like on the blue draw over I did you can add in the secondary forms like the bit of glutes that shows on the left side of her hip, and you can cut into the form a bit on the other side where the belt is pulling in a bit and there is a slight concavity between her iliac crest and great trochanter.

Anyways, when you focus on those secondary forms first you get an image like the one before he drawover, which feels disjointed.
