There are multiple such measures. Ones I could think of right off the bat is hip/waist ratio, BAI, or simply waist circumference.

Those all fail to reliably predict body fatness in all populations.

All of those measurements should be taken in context with other health signs, like blood pressure, fasting glucose and maybe eating/exercise habits as well.
