Thanks for this interesting video! I was thinking about male style essences for a while and this video helped me to sort my thoughts. However I was suprised by some examples you showed. E.g. Cillian Murphy as a dramatic. Of course in Peaky Blinders he has this very sharp haircut and tailored costumes. But actually his face is very ambivalent. He has very feminine features such as the rounded eyes, full lips, and a slightly rounded nose. On the other hand he has a very defined jawline and an overall square face shape. So I thought he might have a classic essence because he has soft and sharp features at once.

Think Before You Sleep directed here and I'm glad he did. I was told when I was younge that I should work out as it would suit my face better. Wasn't sure what that meant. I've since put a lot of work in at the gym and been told a suit looks like it's constricting me, so when you talked about Natural it really made me realise what i should be looking at in terms of overall style. Great video with excellent examples, it's underrated and I hope it gets more attention.

I’m a romantic male and while researching kibbe I’ve found that romantic men, like myself, favor soft clothing with swirls of fabric around the face; scarfs, collars, wide lapels, fur collars, bandanas tied around the neck. Anything to create ripples or waves.

Yo another man here. Really appreciate the video! This type of content made me realize how much more systematics and knowledge goes into famale fashion damn. I'd definitely watch if you'd make more content for men. I feel the male fashion KZreadrs all tell the same stuff.
Romantic Essence male here: i've noticed reactions to the way i dress (casual/classic), and i can give you a sure-fire way to pinpoint a Romantic Essence person. If you picture an Ingenue type and a Romantic type in button-up shirts, all the way buttoned, and then un-button the top button. The Ingenue gives a relaxed feeling, while the Romantic almost always gives off boudoir vibes. Think Elijah Wood vs John Stamos. hope it helps. cheers!

For sure! He has both unusually timeless and dramatic features and looks so perfect in unusual styles and magical roles. Something alien about him that makes him shine.
Thanks for mentioning men fearing a blow to their masculinity! So many people nowadays mock masculinity or disregard it altogether and it's refreshing to find someone who doesn't do that. My husband is extremely masculine -- very "mountain man", he definitely has some natural essence -- but is also extremely yin in facial structure, nose, etc. He would definitely feel insulted if I told him that, simply because he has been made to feel self-conscious and like he doesn't look manly enough with his rounder features. BTW, would love a style roots video dedicated to style suggestions for men! Both my husband and I are on a "wardrobe/style journey".

I'm a SD and my boyfriend is definitely an ingenue... He is so cute. We've been together since we were teens and we both definitely went through a thing where he felt a bit robbed of his masculinity, and me of my femininity, coming into our adult proportions. Now it is cool realizing that the both of us have unique looks

Ellie this is SO helpful because I’m a bit of a tomboy and love to dress in men’s clothes that work for natural essence men. I think this works because I’m an FN.

Aw this is such a great result of this video!! This is great to hear, I’m glad this had brought you a step closer to your personal style ☺️☺️
I would be interested in getting my boyfriend a consultation on his face/body type. 😄 I loved this because diversity is a thing.
It’s really interesting to see how these essences work in families as well. I think both of my parents have some natural to them-my mother has some very gamine features whereas my father’s ruggedness is tempered with some classic elements-but the combinations play very different in my face and my sister’s.
I think you're spot on with your breakdown of Romantic - not to reinforce stereotypes, but the 'Latin Lover' does kind of correspond to a type of dark, smoldering essence (along with actual Romance languages such as French, Italian, and Spanish).

Literally referred to romantic men like the "spanish lover" type in my head omg had the same tought as you😂😂
Could you please do one of these using Asian face examples! I struggled seeing myself in the examples and I’m still unsure
My boyfriend is definitely ethereal essence - that explains why he is so utterly adorable. His face is just so "cute" and I love that.
You're videos are also excellent for character design too! I'm a writer but your videos on essences and body types helps me describe my characters and how I see them in my mind, and it feels like I get them better and can bring out certain parts of them in text to make them more real 😄 And me, learning how to style myself better is also a huge plus haha!

I've been having the hardest time wrapping my head around the style essences based on women's fashion, but this video made it all make sense--probably because I just dress in a more masculine way (for a woman anyway). Looks like I'm Dramatic with a dash of Gamine, which makes perfect sense. Thank you for this video!
This makes so much sense. I’m natural essence and I find myself always going for and being the most comfortable in workout clothes or something like jeans with a loose flannel with the upper portion being unbuttoned. I could never wear anything too fancy or wild
I’ve been trying to figure out my type for a while. I just watched one of your videos where you said understanding how this all applies to men can help us figure it out. And oh my goodness, it totally does. Thanks for all the great content. :)
i LOVE your suggestions for ethereal men. my bf definitely has strong ethereal essence (he's basically a doppelganger of maculay culkin lol) and I really think menswear today is not at all accommodating to men with ethereal essence. but your suggestions are really fun but practical. would love to see more!

My bf also has some ethereal essence and he looks incredible in long flowy jackets made from thin materials, capes, hoods, shawls, scarfs. It makes him look elf like. Long jumpers in earth tones or gemstone colors also look amazing, oversized stuff if the fabric is thin. Silver or gold. Long necklaces with roughly cut crystals or natural materials like wood or bone gives him a shaman vibe :) quite a fascinating essence really
One of my main beefs with the idea of describing yin as “feminine” and yang as “masculine” is that I’ve always felt it misleads and creates prejudice (ie, you inadvertently envision “yang” types and yang essences as more “male”). This video proves why I think we should strive to avoid any afjectives that might introduce gendered notions in typology and essence: for each essence you showed men that are regarded as the peak of male attractiveness, because yes, “sensual” and “fleshy” (for example) is not the exclusive prerogative of femininity.

This video made it very clear to me that my fiancé is a natural. I’ve been trying to help him figure out his style because he has hates shopping and has very strong likes and dislikes when it comes to clothes but it can seem random because he doesn’t know why he likes certain items. Do you have a version of the style roots that appeals more towards men? Absolutely love your videos btw, they’ve helped me so much in my own style evolution 😊
I’ve been waiting for this for SOOO long. Is it possible to do a kibbe for men video in the near future? I would love to hear your opinion on it
Yesss!!! Been wanting to see how different essences look for men!!! Thank you for this!!
Great video, that comparison of dramatic and romantic really helped visualise the difference. I think ingenue is often confused for romantic when talking male essences. But I think you’re right- it’s more sensuality I’m a 5’9” SD with romantic and ingenue essence and my partner is a 6’1 and I think SD too with a romantic and dramatic essence I’m sort of a tall Marilyn/ Bardot vibe and he’s a meatier Arthur Miller. So interesting to think about it
I'm shocked!!! Everything you said about ingenue/youthful essence was spot on - even down to the bowtie, wide nose, adorable features etc. You're amazing! (watching your previous videos, I thought I would translate to gamine due to their mischievous looks, but you got me 100% with this video!)
Thank you so much for this! I'm a man and I've been looking for something like this for AGES! I think I'm an ingenue with hints of romantic?
My partner is hands down ingenue with a bit of romantic, but is a big guy and a rugby player. This so perfectly explains why he pulls off such quirky stuff and loves fancy dress, and pulls off anything playful that just looking at him from behind you wouldn't expect given his body type. And why he's seen as a protector/good/friendly rather than intimidating. Love this.
Im still figuring out my colors and seasons but your videos have really helped narrow down what i think my essence is and how to express myself in a way thats genuine and authentic. I applaud your creative outlook and your perspective on personal style is beautifully fresh and needed. Thank you ☺️
Can't express how grateful I am for this video!!!!!!!
My partner has a mix of natural and ingenue. He has a penchant for floral print shirts and feels most comfortable in camping gear. He’s born and bred Colorado so the natural makes a lot of sense. It’s interesting to see the slight contrast between us. We both share the natural essence, but he’s more comfortable with yin energy than I am.
Did you confuse the yin/yang text in the first photo? Because Hrithik Roshan is all sharp angled and elongated and young Christopher Walken looked like Scarlett Johansson (it's a meme even) with his round eyes and lush lips, so I guess you mean Hrithik is yang and Christopher yin - not the other way round, right?
I actually find this way harder to pick than with women, thinking of it as yin and yang and it being more feminine or more masculine, the men are obviously all more masculine 😂 though I do see the differences I would struggle to pin point them, my boyfriend definitely seems to be a classic and I believe I'm a theatrical romantic
I love how LOTR males were shown for ethereal
I would love to see more videos on men! Maybe one on body types?
Thank you so much for your videos on these essences. I truly appreciate how much time and thought you’ve put into all of these videos. So helpful! Especially the ingenue essence, which can be hard to find info on. I have loved seeing the essences in men here. Thank you 💜

This video has been very helpful! I just figured out my Kibbe type, (SD), and I’ve been trying to figure out my essence! Im a woman so I started with your video for women, but I couldn’t relate to any of them because my personal style is very masculine. I watched this video and right away could tell that my face matches with the men’s romantic essence! Thank you!
you are so good at what you do!! this is fascinating, thank you for putting this info out there.
Love this! Please do more videos like this for men! I’m trying to figure out how to dress my husband and this is helpful!
Please do more with men and body types ! You're so good at providing many examples and photos !
I like how for the men’s video you focused on showed pictures for the facial features more than the women’s video I hope you make a video that focuses on this point for women because this is something I struggle to grasp for myself unlike the body types/essences video

This is excellent. I'd love to see Kibbe types, seasonal color palettes, and your style roots adapted for men too.
This video really helped me understand the essences for women more
I'd really like to see more stuff on romantic style men (as I am one, with some more gamine/ingenue features). I'm not above wearing lush velvet dresses and such, but it would be nice to have some more practical advice also 😅

Yes!! I would love to see more videos about men! I use your videos for reference on my own style, but I also use them for character design. often times, as an artist, I fall into the habit of creating the same faces for my characters, and I like to use your videos as a sort of inspiration on how to create different vibes and convey personality through facial features. It would be so awesome to get more insight on the essences/body types of men!!

I really enjoyed seeing this applied to men! I think it'd be interesting to take a gender neutral approach to the essences, maybe talking about some non-binary or more androgynous presenting celebrities in general :)
Thank you I used this guide on my husband :)
Please more videos about men!!! Love you and
This is so interesting! I’ve tried to find this kind of info for men for ages. I have typed ny hubby as a flamboyant natural before , But that is just me guessing 😅 The thing is that he has a beard (and rocking it). It makes him look natural. But without the beard he leans to dramatic. Wonder if facial hair can ”fake” an essence?
May you go in deeper into the 7 essences for guys?! Pretty please
Enjoyed watching this! Definitely clocked my partner as very much having natural essence, and my brother seems to fit more with the romantic essence
Please make more of these types of clips based on men it actually helps a lot both for male female for contract helikopter view plus for those of us who can be either or both in style/ essence
Pleease, make more videos about men! It's sooo hard to find good things about they. I love your videos :D

This was helpful to understand more of the differences in women too. Still no idea where I stand though lol I have been told I have doll-like features like the small plump pouty lips and large round ish eyes however I also have a somewhat prominent jawline and my shoulders are slightly wider than my hips, however I carry more weight like in my bottom for example than my breasts that stay small. Waistline is somewhat small but wouldn’t say it’s hour glass either. but proportionate for the most part, I am also 5’6. I used to think I was a natural but now I’m not so sure.. any help is welcome is anyone has any good guesses for me lol

I'm having a bit of a difficult time placing myself here, but I'm definitely on the yang dominant side. Maybe a natural, now that I think about it. All I know is that my face is very defined, but I'm also not Grand Moff Wilhulff Tarkin :P
Ive always been kinda in the middle which is practical for shopping but now I think I got it! Classic makes sm sense especially what everyone keeps saying to me heh. I look alot like my maternal grandfather and hes 100% classic so that sure helps
I sent this to my brother who feels a little lost in the fashion department. I also just figured out what I find visually pleasing in my attraction to men LOL
Thank you so much for doing this! I agree there isn't a lot out there for men but I have thought my boyfriend is a gamine for a long time due his boyish face and looking good in playful colors and patterns and this confirms it. I am intrigued about the difference between gamine and ingenue men as that's not 100% clear to me. I think this might be easier if look at men from different time periods for instance in Henry the 8ths time period in England you see a lot of differences between Quaker Protestant style and whimsical and romantic styles and fabrics on men.
