Right. The kibbe subreddit is not helpful at all because everyone interprets the descriptions differently. Looking at the same photo, one person will say "the shoulders are blunt" while another person claims "the shoulders are sharp." It should be more objective but it's really very subjective.

I watched this video last night, discovered I'm a Theatrical Romantic, and for the first time in maybe my life, today I looked at my body with prided and love, rather than the feeling I've always had of "must lose weight." I could see my actually gorgeous curves and love them. It makes me feel like crying. Thank you so much for introducing me to this system.

The key is to reduce the "Kibbe types" to their core principles. Look at your bone structure. Which do you think is dominant: Verticality? Width? Balance? Petiteness? If you were to draw how fabric falls on your body, how would it look? Would it stretch around your shoulders? Drape around the hips? Drape out the bust? Or would it fall straight from your shoulders to your feet?

Fx I prefer dresses over skirts, how I like big statement jewellery over small delicate ones, why I look great in colour blocking or big prints, but a small floral print just looks of. I'm a soft dramatic ❤️

Just found out your channel! I’m loving it. I think it would be very helpful to categorize myself if we could get “normal people” and not celebrities because I feel like I dont look like any of those 😭. Maybe a subreditt where we can upload our picture for you to use? 🤔

I wonder whether the height limitations on the Kibbe types need to be updated, because on average, people are taller now than in previous decades. Because of my 5'9" height, most of the categories are automatically ruled out. Yet when I took the test, Dramatic Classic was the closest to my score--except that I'm too tall. I don't feel like many of the A answers describe me (I'm not that thin) or many of the Bs either (I'm not that wide). Maybe I just need a pair of more objective eyes, haha.

@lilaeia

Жыл бұрын

Ethereal essence is part of Kitchener’s system. Originated sequentially prior to Kibbe’s system but Kibbe chose to omit the Ethereal and Ingenue from his system, leaving some of us stranded. I’m very dominantly an Ethereal. According to Kibbe, it doesn’t have a place in his system. He considers height to be a yang feature, and so someone long and sinewy yet all yin makes no sense to him. All yin would be short and delicate, not a long visual line and delicate. The major differences would be that an Ethereal is delicate in bone structure and overall soft in appearance, like a Romantic… with curves (unlike the straighter silhouette of Dramatics)… with height or long visual line. In this way, some perceive it as the midway point between Romantics and Dramatics. They have a delicateness and softness uncharacteristic of Dramatics, and a long line uncharacteristic of Romantics. They don’t really fit anywhere at all in Kibbe’s system. Which is why I was so lost with Kibbe. The difference in style advice is also palpable. Romantics suit waist emphasis, short lines (like midi-length skirts and dresses, 3/4 sleeves, cropped pants etc)… mid-sized rounded prints like florals, and light to mid-tone colours in light-weight fabrics. Ethereals are considered even more yin according to Kitchener, falling at the extreme yin end of his spectrum. Fabrics that are so lightweight they would fly away in the wind. Colours so light they have almost no contrast with your natural skin tone (meaning if dark-skinned, go by low contrast with your skin colour). Oversized, abstract prints rather than solid florals, yet still soft-edged rather than sharp or geometric. And NO waist emphasis. This is the thing that had me baffled. It’s the biggest style recommendation for Romantics and it was ALL WRONG for me lol. A skirt waistband or a demarcation with a belt, or even colour blocking works for Romantics and does NOT work for Ethereals. They need LONG visual line… like ankle length (not midi or cropped)… and monochromatic, low contrast, super pale colour schemes. One piece from head to toe works best, like a flowing dress. To elongate one part of the body (upper or lower), a dropped waist or an empire waist is best, not the natural waistline. Something that tapers at the waist rather than hangs (which reads more Natural), but doesn’t demarcate at the waist. Overall lighter fabric weight, lighter colours, more delicate florals and laces, ombré effects, more abstract prints and longer line everything (including accessories, hair, jewellery etc). Hope this helps!!! 💝😇😘

Going in I thought I’d be a romantic type, but I definitely have more angular shoulder as well as prominent hip and collar bones, so maybe a gamine type? I’ll have to look more into it because this is fascinating. Great video!

In the first round I was placed as a soft classic, but I'm 5'7" almost (halfway between 5'6" & 5'"7), so that placed me in the dramatic classic and that didn't look right at all based off of the images and description given. The second time through my answers were skewed with C5, B4, D3, E3 and I couldn't place myself at all. Your explanation along with the examples you provided (alongside another outside viewpoint from a friend) I've been placed as a dramatic classic for certain. I think prior it was just really hard for me to place myself based off of the description that the person had. Thank you so much!

This is so hard to figure out my type, because I’m ethnically Chinese, we are in general shorter. Like in America 5ft is automatically petite, but in China that is the average height.

IGNORE THE HEIGHT LIMIT. Trust me, all it ever does is confuse people and throw the "final score" off, and it's not nearly as important as things like bone structure anyway. If you absolutely MUST analyse your height, go off the proportions of your head compared to the rest of your body instead.

The music is really throwing this video off for me. It's too loud for how loud you're voice is in the mix.

I have a pixie kind of look. I’ve always looked better with medium to short hair. I’m 5’2 and 90lbs-115lbs (due to ED it varies), but no matter how thin I am I don’t really look under weight. I’m kinda naturally big boned while also very petite. I feel like I’m fairly sharp, my shoulders seem a little wide and when I’m at a healthy weight I’m a curvy petite (like 35-26-35). My limbs are pretty small. My torso and legs both seem pretty short with how I’m built. Even when I am health my hips are very bony and you can always see at least some of my rib cage on my chest. So I’m guessing I’m probably a gamine or a flamboyant gamine. I can’t go off of how I see myself because body dysmorphia is legit, but going off of how others refer to how I look I guess I’m a gamine but I’m not sure

That’s astoundingly easy 🤗

Flamboyant Gamine here, for sure! Luckily I love that style 💕

If you haven’t already, could you do one comparing eg soft dramatics vs theatrical romantics? since you mentioned undercurrents a lot, I wonder what the difference would be directly compared!

this helped me to understand the categories more and I think I can categorise myself as a flamboyant natural after watching this, but I wish you had used more mid and plus size examples to make things clearer for everyone and not just slim/athletic/thin people

im definitely flamboyant natural! oversized draping clothes look so good on me i never knew why and now i do

P.S. for those who think she's lying about her height she's not because Kelly Rowland and Michelle are both 5'8 and 5'9 respectively and we can see that Bey is only a little shorter than them; pictures with other celebrities also illustrate that she is that height.

Kibbe believes she is lying about her height for whatever reason and has therefore classified her as R. Celebrities have lots of tricks to make themselves look taller etc. If she is 5"7 then she would be Soft Dramatic :)

@@elliejeanroyden I definitely agree with the Soft Dramatic analysis. Also, as a tall woman, I dont see why female celebs that aren't auditioning to be models would care to be taller than their actual heights. Always found it quite strange that people think they lie about such a thing or that they do lie if thats the actual case

I actually feel like Beyonce is the perfect example of what it means to be tall versus look tall. Just because she's 5'7 doesn't mean that her proportions reflect that height.

@@dahliaherrod4301 Kibbe uses height, Romantics can't be taller than 5'5 according to him. This isn't a case where the styling system stated that vertical is whats to be used as opposed to actual height so my opinion doesn't change.

He also has 5'8 Rihanna as a TR. They're both SD in my opinion. If you ever seen Beyoncé when she first tried vegan diets and got super thin her structure looked dramatic.

Weirdly can’t decide wether I’m dramatic or flamboyant natural😂 I’ve watched this and other videos many times and I keep going back and forth between the two!

This was awesome..I'm gamine and learning how to flatter my build..I'm 49..about time lol..music was a bit loud though, thanks for the help, now I'll see if you've got one for dressing a sort torso❤🇦🇺🙏

i think my body is a combination of soft dramatic and classic. my face is much softer looking compared to my body, people always think im shorter than i am when im sitting down because i have a small face and my torso is short. they are often suprised that i have long limbs and 5'7. i can wear something that shows my figure but it cannot be something too feminine. Anything with floral patterns, laces or peter pan collar looks very unflattering on me. I can never seem to pull it off no matter what i try.

ive never worn anything w a peter pan collar before until very recently. I asked my aunt if i could borrow a shirt for my job interview and she gave me a button up shirt with a peter pan collar. boy i was shocked when i looked in the mirror, it was so awkward and unflattering on me. I find that "softer" looking clothes don't work out for my body type.

As a 5'10 woman who looks tall but has curve emphasis, I'm going to guess that means I'm a "soft dramatic".

great video. hard to take it in with the volume of the music. You are a talented woman!

Nice! I think I’m a flamboyant natural 😊

Does the vertical line apply without shoes? I find I have a short/moderate line without shoes but with 2-3 inch boots I have long vertical line!

I genuinely feel like I see my body differently every day so I’m still having trouble with this 😅 I’m 5’4”, I definitely have boobs and a butt but I feel like I also carry some weight in my waist area that makes me seem less curvy, in my opinion. I guess maybe soft natural?

I’m definitely a romantic. You describe me to a science 💕

very interesting!!!

Yeah, I still have no idea which body type I have. Everything is so vague. How do you know if you are sharp or round or look good in one kind of clothes vs another. Isnt that more subjective?

I'm still confused by what my body type is. I seem to carry extra weight in my belly which is frustrating.

I’m a soft dramatic 😯 this changes everything 😆 (not rly-but boy am I excited to reevaluate how well I’ve done my wardrobe)

I think I'm a soft natural! Very exciting 😁
