You can find an example for that at the end of the FvwmButtons man
page.

  Style * HandleWidth 0, BorderWidth 0

The handles are indeed the invisible windows that can be grabbed
with the pointer to resize the window. The terminology is a bit
confusing. The BorderWidth and HandleWidth styles both control
the size of the relief around the window. HandleWidth is used if
the window has handles and the BorderWidth otherwise.

Nonsense! It's important for me to get feedback so I can judge
what we can do better in the future.
