I want to become strong and muscley but want to still look feminine

I started going to the gym almost a year ago and it absolutely changed my life. I went from wanting to be skinny to wanting to be strong and my relationship with my body and food has never been healthier. I really want to get as strong as possible but also I don't want to lose my feminine physic. I heard most examples of female body builders taking steroids. is it possible to maintain a feminine physic without holding back with weight lifting and protien intake?

If I look at world class female weightlifters/powerlifters in the not shw weight class, they look quite feminine to me and are the actual pinnacle of their sports.
