'around the midriff' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'bald omani spreading' is the wordplay.
'spreading' indicates anagramming the letters.
'bald'+'omani'='baldomani'
'baldomani' with letters rearranged gives 'ABDOMINAL'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for abdominal that I've seen before include "Of the belly" , "like tummy muscles" , "of part of body" , "Like stomachache" , "from a corporation?" .)
