When I was younger I HATED being dramatic shape, I'm an inverted triangle with very sharp boyish features. As I got older, I've really embraced it - these features age well - my cheekbones compliment me more with age. Shout out to my dramatic gals
When you get al the small feature but no cheekbones. Also all the angular sharp bones but neither narownes nor a vertical line. AND you hate the aestetic to the very core od your being. Am I supposed to embrace this shit? I love the system but it doesnt love me back.

This was helpful. I'm more certain that I'm a dramatic. I was thinking I might be a classic dramatic, but this helped me better understand both types. Thank you, Aly!
Same thing, i was thinking i am classic dramatic . Now i believe i am soft dramatic 🤣More videos i watch, more confused i become This si a True science Thank you for sharing your knowledge ❤️
@@everything5066 Im saying David stopped concidering faces. So some Dramatic's, me for example, faces doesn't match the associated aestetic. Op is lucky to have face matching the description in the book, all I'm saying.
I guess that my confusion is often based on whether or not a person has some weight. You can't see whether person's bones are sharp and blunt anymore. Also, I feel like brows can mislead me too. If they are straight and sharp it may seem that a person is dramatic when in reality they are not. Hm
Welp, that clears up a lot! 😁 Dramatic it is, never had my body and face described so accurately. Thank you for taking the time to put this series together.
I think soft dramatic can be confusing to type, because Kibbe does say that it's not necessary that soft dramatics are very fleshy, and usually when they aren't they may lack in the bust and hip area (which is certainly my case). Also, most examples of soft dramatics are usually women of a riper age which is reflected in their figure. But if you see their younger pictures, some of them are actually quite thin and you wouldnt think to type them as soft dramatic. I think this could be a good topic to discuss!
Thank you! I'm curious about the difference between Soft Natural vs Romantic and Soft Natural vs Soft Gamine. Sometimes I even feel confuse about Soft Natural vs Classic too.
She just did a video like this for Romantics! They cover the Romantic vs Soft Natural, if you wanted to go look for it! I was confused between R and SN until I tried on the lines for SN and went ".....yeah. no."
The biggest difference between R and SN is the frame. Even if Rs can be slightly wide they usually don’t have the frame, when they get heavier they look puffy. They are narrow and small framed overall. SNs doesn’t need width always, but they need frame. They look like they can carry stronger line, more voluptuous curves. The JLO curve to be precise. Romantics will have a double curve, and no elongation. SN doesn’t need that, they have stronger and more “Instagram curves”.
Can you make a video about deciding body types of your subscribers? I think many people would love to see it as everyone have problems with it. I understand that you're making this series for this purpose but why not get closer with the audience? It'll be very intertaining at least for me as you mostly show radical/very pronounced examples while in "real life" people kinda harder to type??????? Am I right? Idk, also sorry for mistakes I'm not a native I loved this video! Thank you for everything you're doing, you're such a multi-talented person, Aly😌🥰
I appreciate all the effort you put into your UA-cam videos, thank you so much, they’re incredibly helpful and helped me start dressing for what actually works for my body instead of just following trends that suit other types. I hope you keep making them
This helped me to find out I'm probably a soft dramatic, thanks Aly, this is really helpful. What do you think of making a video about each body type's personality, the way they move etc, does personality traits relate to the body types?
Still unsure. I am 177cm tall, which is just a bit above the average in my country. I definitely have an hourglass figure, with 97cm, both hips and bust and 56cm waist. I have long limbs, quite thin ones and tapered shoulders. My feet are rather small for this height- 37eu, but they appear long as they’re narrow. I don’t put on weight easily and when I do, my waist appears even smaller in comparison to the rest of the figure. I don’t have angular face at all, it’s roundish oval with full cheeks. I have big almond eyes and full lips. My head is quite big so I don’t really appear as tall as I really am, though my much taller boyfriend might also be the case
Don't look at the details (makes you confused) focus on the overall image. If you described yourself in a few words what would it be? What sticks out? For me I'm long lean and small = gamine.
At that height you can only be Soft Dramatic, Dramatic or Flamboyant Natural. So when you look at yourself in the mirror what do you notice first? Is it your height and curvy figure or your shoulders and frame? If your curves are the first thing you see you are probably SD. If your frame is the dominant feature, then you are probably FN. And, if your length and narrowness is the dominant feature you are most likely a pure D.
This is a very good suggestion! Kibbe types retain their underlying features despite weight gain, but excess fat certainly obscures them and makes it very difficult to determine which category you fall under. It would be helpful to see an 1) underweight, 2) healthy weight, 3) overweight and 4) obese example of the body types, along with an explanation of typical fat distribution for each as well.
@@jac5450 I agree. However, the term 'curves' is misused, I fear. It became synonym for overweight. It's wrong. The most lean and fragile, delicate body can have curves. Google supermodel of 90's Yasmeen Ghauri. Lean and lush Soft Dramatic.
I love your body types videos. Could you do one with key garment pieces for every type...? Like, not an entire wardorobe but "if you are a romantic/natural/dramatic, this is a great key piece for summer". Something like that🤗🤗💕💕💕💕
I disagree that when one has sharpness she looks strong and less female looking. The behavior and the way one carries oneself, facial expressions, body language, aura etc. Is more dominant in my opinion. Then the sharpness or softness in her lines.
The BIGGEST FLAW of that typing system is that it needs people to be model thin to be typed correctly. Any extra weight, even if it's ever so slight, can cause anybody to be in a whole different category that might be completely wrong for them.
Great! Waiting for Classic... I'm almost sure my face is Soft Classic/Classic and my body is Dramatic Classic... PS: Aly you look AMAZING in last videos. The contrast between your softly tanned skin and hair is brilliant!
I'm dramatic. Tall, long, slim, straight but with a waist, long face, plump lips esp the lower one, nose on the bigger side :( I used to love my body 10 years ago when it was still trending. Now everybody tells you to go eat a burger. However I love this videos.. they are really helpfull.
I am especially grateful for these videos! I am studying this as a hobby and even though I watched almost ALL your videos, sometimes I still have some confusion :) lol. Somehow I feel that I could be ALL the body types besides Gamine and Romantic hahaha, and I can only close those out as I am 180 cm tall and not that curvy. Anyhow, I will be on the quest to figure this one out. Here I would just say I am very grateful for your content and I hope that my constant like-ing and commenting will boost your channel that you can grow even bigger! Lots of hugs from Budapest, Hungary!
Could you do a video on the differences between soft dramatic and flamboyant natural please? I am one of them but I just cannot work out which one! In many ways they seem to have similar attributes and from the pictures I struggle to distinguish between them definitively. I love your Kibbe series. This is the first body type system that has actually made sense to me. The distinction of skeletal structure and type of flesh gives so much more nuance and reality to the body types. Thank you for your enlightening videos!
@khedidja Sallah not always the case. Some people have baby face but they arent gamine(selena gomez), it's about the overall look , the bone structure, the vertical line ....gamine is smaller, shorter so they does looks petite and young, but soft natural can be short too ...it depends on many things. What important is that know which type of clothing line suit the body the most( which very hard bc soft natural can wear some of gamine clothes, vice versa)
I'm trying to get used to the idea that I'm actually a dramatic (still not sure tho because looking at yourself objectively is hard) but the way you describe it as 'masculine' just makes me wanna rip off my skin and die 😢
I am boyish. I'm flat cheated and am not soft or curvy. I also have quite a big head and long hands. I personally have to have long hair otherwise I feel like I look like a teenage boy. But I am ok with it because I am a product of my ancestry and I'm proud of that and I know there is no one like me. We are all completely individual.
Dying to know what categories other Hollywood actresses fall in, especially Ava Gardner, Veronica Lake, Hedy Lamarr, Liv Tyler, Gene Tierney, Lena Horne and Gal Gadot!
I feel like this comparison was less obvious than the Romantic vs Other types comparison. Apparently everyone has a little bit of drama, unless they're Romantic. But our Romantic sides are not so obvious when we're not Romantics. (no pun intended)😊
Trends come and go. Embrace and love yourself because you are unique the way you are. Many women starve themselves in order to loose weight and achieve your slender figure. And you got it naturally. Slim, tall person can wear everything they want ant look good, stylish and elegant. Being slim is always trendy and very convenient. Chin up!
@@tool-enjoyer666 Raquel Welch is Soft Dramatic. :) They are bomb shells, very curvy and feminine. Although, I agree, every woman cam be feminine. It's about energy, not body image.
I love you! You are so insightful and gorgeous! I like that you have grown your hair so its below your chin and lightened it to add more contrast (both of these make your face less wide) and have styled it in a way that is more straight yet still soft/tousled (so it's still soft gamine). I think this has definitely slimmed your face and suits you! I like the lipstick you have chosen for this video better than the mauve-y pink one you normally wear b/c I think that one is a bit too cool-toned. Also, are you wearing colored contacts or is it just the lighting or the tan? They look lighter. I'd definitely be interested in seeing what your brown hair would look like with baby highlights and your green eyes--I think it'd be really pretty! Maybe for Fall? This is just my opinion which I think agrees with the stuff you say in your vids!
i feel like because i am tall, lean, with long limbs i automatically fall into the dramatic category but my face is not angular or dramatic, i dont think. i dont have any very outstanding features except perhaps my dark eyebrows. i like the structured clthing and long lines of dramatic style, but the clean lines and lack of patterns in classic as well. too much pattern looks clownish on me.
Huh, I'm just sitting here reflecting over the fact that I prefer my face when I have a bit more weight on (but my body with a bit less) cause my face turns reeeeaally angular and masculine when it has less fat on it TT i like it better while rounded. I suppose I'm just a dramatic all the way
Hey Aly, I love your channel and your analysis on the body types. I would like to request for an analysis of the different body types and the saree and saree draping styles for them. I think I am a soft gamine and always end up looking childish instead of elegant in them and would love to know more about how to style them so I at least look decent in them. Thank you, you and Merriam Style are my favourite channels btw. Much love.
I am 90% sure that I am a soft dramatic but sometimes still have doubts if I am a dramatic or not. I tried the dramatic hairstyles ( sleek and sculpted, straight, wasnt a look for me) also when it comes to dresses long wrap dresses suit me the most. Is there a way to clarify this easier?
@@brunamota8865 Yes, being underweight or overweight doesn't help. But, even than, the body has accentuated bust-waist-hips ratio or it's straight. SD's don't have narrow hips or flat chest. D's rarely have any curves at all. SD is about lush flesh, unlike D. Without flesh, body can look more like D. SD has height/vertical line and curves to accommodate, D only height/vertical line. SD clothes is meant to hug the curves. It's all about the size of the curves. If you don't have them, perhaps D options would be better for you. Go by the vibe and your energy, personality. Jamie Lee Curtis and Nicole Kidman don't have very different body images. Jamie is D, Nicole is FN. It's overall vibe. And the face, although Kibbe abandoned face as relevant in his system.
@@blueice011 The thing I have caracteristics that would define me both as D and SD. I'm tall and I look tall, besides my hands and feet I believe I have long, narrow bones and all that jazz. However I look moderately curvy from the front (which could be just curves every human body has) but I'm very curvy from the back even tho I'm very close to being underweight. Does that make me a D with a booty? Or an ultrathin SD? Should I take into account how I look from the front and back? And what if those sides tell me different things? Also as a young person I'm not really sure if I can tell the difference between a regular hourglass/pear shaped body and a instagram hourglass/pear shaped body. I think my perception is screwed up! Don't get me wrong I know you're being helpful and informative but there are a lot of questions left unanswered, especially because all the creators talking about this subject mainly use white women as examples
Please do a video for dyeing natural red hair. I’m a redhead and have always wanted to try a new colour but I don’t know what would look good and when the roots eventually grow out what colours would help that process.
Great vid on dramatic types! Super helpful and a great help in figuring what styles look best...ty for this💗💐 You look so tan and healthy Aly...FL is def agreeing with you! Best to u and hubs💗💐
I use to be more of a soft classic in my younger age. Now that I am older, I see myself as more of a dramatic classic as I am thinner and good ol' arthritis gives me more of a "sharper" appearance. When you age, you lose collagen and elasticity. Your bones appear prominent- especially arthritic joints. Just saying.
What do you guys think about Dorothy Dandridge? I'm so confused about her because she's doesn't really look like the other dramatics , she's 5'4 and her hands and feet are not that big and she's even curvy and look wonderful in theatrical romantics clothes !
Very helpful @AlyArt, your work on this subject is the best! but no matter how much information I collect and/or learn on Kibbe Types I remain equally Soft Dramatic/dramatic Classic/flamboyant Natural 😩 Is there some feature that trumps others?
4 роки тому
Hi, Aly! First, let me say that I love your videos; I watch a lot of them, even if I rarely take the time to comment every time. Second: could you make a soft natural vs. others video? I could really use it, 'cause I'm a soft natural, but it seems to be a very vague type, it would help to see the specific features of the soft natural pinned in a more affirmative way, sorta
Could you include more people of color and people of higher weights please? Im overweight and I can not figure out what I am... Also I see some poc but lots of them got typical ''white feautures''. Love your videos though
Hi Aly. Great videos! I suggest a video specific about Gamins. Really difficult do understand the differences among Gamin and FG. Most important are the suggestions of what fits well in each case, with tons of examples of looks! regards from Brazil!!
@khedidja Sallah Oh it's not for me, I am a hardcore romantic 😁 I cannot see the difference on other people. Sometimes, when flamboyant natural is very skinny, it looks like a dramatic to me.
I think I'm a flamboyant natural (I THINK😊) It's obvious to me because Naturals look more, manly. Dramatics don't look manly, they look, sharp, but not like men. Not like your typical man. Their hips are too narrow, their shoulders are too, slight. If they were a man they would look like they were starving, or like they hadn't finished growing. A Natural looks like your typical man (of the same height and size). If that makes sense.
@@ebbyc1817 flamboyant naturals are more square-ish and strong looking, yes. Also they have beautiful cheekbones, like flamboyant gamines. 😊 But I still cant decipher 100% It takes practice I guess 😊
I am FN, my Mom is dramatic. She has narrower shoulders, thin lips, pointy elbows, her wrists and ankles are really thin while mine are wide. I am more muscular and wider in general. A dramatic looks slim and long, while a FN looks large and powerful
She will probably look understated and "boring" , kinda like she needs to add something more to the outfit. On the other hand, SC will look absolutely harmonious in some understated "classic" and timeless pieces.
This is sometimes such a hard type to be.. I used to love fluffy clothes, But now I think I don't look good on, them.. It's a kibbe rabithole 😶sorry about my english😅
What if my body looks like a pure dramatic but my face is the complete opposite? I have kind of an oval/rectangular shaped face with chubby cheeks which doesn't resemble the stereotypical dramatic at all
I could never tell if I was a dramatic or a flamboyant natural. I'm tall (5'9), and have very long bones (legs, arms, feet, etc.), however I also have large hips with a rather big behind, despite being bony. I feel if I was a dramatic then I wouldn't have a soft- oblong face with large eyes. Am I a mix?
You can have some yin features in your face and be a D. You can also have a big butt and be one because Kibbe uses the front of our bodies and a curvy butt isn't taken into consideration there. It's about whether you have width (the fabric pulling around your shoulders/ribcage), or you are narrow all over and more 'straight' leaning. Maybe you can also take a look at celebs.
Very straight, no hips, thin bones, thin lips, long torso, long thin nose, soft inverted triangle facial shape, small eyes, cheekbones are not angular, 5"6'. Now that I'm older, I look much softer! Currently losing the fleshy parts with weight loss. Guessing mostly Dramatic for myself. My weight gain has been in my torso. Yang energy for sure.
Looking at Jamie Lee Curtis' build I think I am dramatic. But I have been lifting heavy weights for years and so I do have muscle on my frame. It is hard won muscle though as I don't gain easily. That makes figuring this out much more difficult. If I lose body fat though, I am told I look too bony. Is that a clue?
Now I'm really confused. I'm pretty tall (180 cm), have sharp facial features even though I have full lips. Also I have thin and long fingers, small and thin feet. Sharp shoulders and collar bone with thin waist and small chest. On the other hand I have thick tights and bigger but. Even though I'm normal weight.
Based on my height, I’m dramatic, but my face is very round, soft and what people call “feminine”. My torso sounds like dramatic, but my bottom is also pretty feminine and round, I shop for “curvy” when I need to buy bottoms because I have a pretty distinguishable waist to hips line. So I’m a little confused.

Its also literal hell to try to find anything bc of that
Makes you stand out in a crowd :)
Don't worry! I'm textbook dramatic and I've made it my thing! I'm going to start writing about it on my fashion blog to inspire others
Trends come and go. Embrace and love yourself because you are unique the way you are. Many women starve themselves in order to loose weight and achieve your slender figure. And you got it naturally. Slim, tall person can wear everything they want ant look good, stylish and elegant. Being slim is always trendy and very convenient. Chin up!
I am still confused if I am a dramatic or classic dramatic, or somewhat maybe even flamboyant natural. Pugh, difficult…
so basically now im dramatic in every area of my life LOL
A little reminder-masculine doesnt mean manly! Very masculine women will almost always still look more womanly than very feminine men.
+there are plenty of very masculine women who are known for their femininity. For example, rachel welch!
@@tool-enjoyer666 Raquel Welch is Soft Dramatic. :) They are bomb shells, very curvy and feminine. Although, I agree, every woman cam be feminine. It's about energy, not body image.
Masculine and manly are synonyms lol... And saying Yang women are masculine is bullshit...
I love you! You are so insightful and gorgeous! I like that you have grown your hair so its below your chin and lightened it to add more contrast (both of these make your face less wide) and have styled it in a way that is more straight yet still soft/tousled (so it's still soft gamine). I think this has definitely slimmed your face and suits you! I like the lipstick you have chosen for this video better than the mauve-y pink one you normally wear b/c I think that one is a bit too cool-toned. Also, are you wearing colored contacts or is it just the lighting or the tan? They look lighter. I'd definitely be interested in seeing what your brown hair would look like with baby highlights and your green eyes--I think it'd be really pretty! Maybe for Fall? This is just my opinion which I think agrees with the stuff you say in your vids!
i feel like because i am tall, lean, with long limbs i automatically fall into the dramatic category but my face is not angular or dramatic, i dont think. i dont have any very outstanding features except perhaps my dark eyebrows. i like the structured clthing and long lines of dramatic style, but the clean lines and lack of patterns in classic as well. too much pattern looks clownish on me.
Huh, I'm just sitting here reflecting over the fact that I prefer my face when I have a bit more weight on (but my body with a bit less) cause my face turns reeeeaally angular and masculine when it has less fat on it TT i like it better while rounded. I suppose I'm just a dramatic all the way
I am happy you uploaded😊
Confused between DRAMATIC and FLAMBOYANT NATURAL for myself 😢
Hey Aly, I love your channel and your analysis on the body types. I would like to request for an analysis of the different body types and the saree and saree draping styles for them. I think I am a soft gamine and always end up looking childish instead of elegant in them and would love to know more about how to style them so I at least look decent in them. Thank you, you and Merriam Style are my favourite channels btw. Much love.
Wowow i now believe that kibbe is more than i thought.
Yes body& looks matter so much
Aly you need to do more for us soft dramatics PLEASE 😩🥺 Especially with low contrast
is it possible to have a dramatic body type with a soft dramatic face ?
I am 90% sure that I am a soft dramatic but sometimes still have doubts if I am a dramatic or not. I tried the dramatic hairstyles ( sleek and sculpted, straight, wasnt a look for me) also when it comes to dresses long wrap dresses suit me the most. Is there a way to clarify this easier?
Look for flesh on upper arms and bigger bust. Flesh on upper limbs is a good indicator bc most Ds have come curve on thights.
Tari Tangeo thank you!!
@@blueice011 i would say that you can very much confuse the two, especially if you are underweight.
@@brunamota8865 Yes, being underweight or overweight doesn't help. But, even than, the body has accentuated bust-waist-hips ratio or it's straight. SD's don't have narrow hips or flat chest. D's rarely have any curves at all. SD is about lush flesh, unlike D. Without flesh, body can look more like D. SD has height/vertical line and curves to accommodate, D only height/vertical line. SD clothes is meant to hug the curves. It's all about the size of the curves. If you don't have them, perhaps D options would be better for you. Go by the vibe and your energy, personality. Jamie Lee Curtis and Nicole Kidman don't have very different body images. Jamie is D, Nicole is FN. It's overall vibe. And the face, although Kibbe abandoned face as relevant in his system.
@@blueice011 The thing I have caracteristics that would define me both as D and SD. I'm tall and I look tall, besides my hands and feet I believe I have long, narrow bones and all that jazz. However I look moderately curvy from the front (which could be just curves every human body has) but I'm very curvy from the back even tho I'm very close to being underweight. Does that make me a D with a booty? Or an ultrathin SD? Should I take into account how I look from the front and back? And what if those sides tell me different things?
Also as a young person I'm not really sure if I can tell the difference between a regular hourglass/pear shaped body and a instagram hourglass/pear shaped body. I think my perception is screwed up! Don't get me wrong I know you're being helpful and informative but there are a lot of questions left unanswered, especially because all the creators talking about this subject mainly use white women as examples
Loved your video. Please make one for soft dramatics!!
I am still not sure if I am Soft Dramatic or Theatrical Romantic. I will patiently wait for that video
Thank you Aly
Have you considered doing a color series based on David Zyla? I would love to see that! He has a unique and very individual perspective on color.
Please do a video for dyeing natural red hair. I’m a redhead and have always wanted to try a new colour but I don’t know what would look good and when the roots eventually grow out what colours would help that process.
Great vid on dramatic types! Super helpful and a great help in figuring what styles look best...ty for this💗💐 You look so tan and healthy Aly...FL is def agreeing with you! Best to u and hubs💗💐
I use to be more of a soft classic in my younger age. Now that I am older, I see myself as more of a dramatic classic as I am thinner and good ol' arthritis gives me more of a "sharper" appearance. When you age, you lose collagen and elasticity. Your bones appear prominent- especially arthritic joints. Just saying.
Best explanation🙌
What do you guys think about Dorothy Dandridge? I'm so confused about her because she's doesn't really look like the other dramatics , she's 5'4 and her hands and feet are not that big and she's even curvy and look wonderful in theatrical romantics clothes !
I think Aly said she could be a TR
@@nagisamizuno872 that would make so much sense
Classic.
Excited to see this I was in between FN and DC for ages before figuring out I’m DC
Very helpful @AlyArt, your work on this subject is the best!
but no matter how much information I collect and/or learn on Kibbe Types I remain equally Soft Dramatic/dramatic Classic/flamboyant Natural 😩 Is there some feature that trumps others?
Hi, Aly! First, let me say that I love your videos; I watch a lot of them, even if I rarely take the time to comment every time. Second: could you make a soft natural vs. others video? I could really use it, 'cause I'm a soft natural, but it seems to be a very vague type, it would help to see the specific features of the soft natural pinned in a more affirmative way, sorta
omg I just realized im a dramatic not flamboyant natural very interesting thanks!
Omg body types vid again
Yaaay😍😍😍😍
That really helps! Thank you
For weeks I'm like am I soft dramatic of flamboyant natural, this helped me a lot, I am flamboyant natural
Could you include more people of color and people of higher weights please? Im overweight and I can not figure out what I am... Also I see some poc but lots of them got typical ''white feautures''. Love your videos though
So good! But I'm continue confusing yet. It's possible if I have Dramatic face but Flamboyant natural Body?
Hi Aly. Great videos! I suggest a video specific about Gamins. Really difficult do understand the differences among Gamin and FG. Most important are the suggestions of what fits well in each case, with tons of examples of looks! regards from Brazil!!
If someone is flamboyant natural or dramatic. Still my biggest dilemma
@khedidja Sallah Oh it's not for me, I am a hardcore romantic 😁 I cannot see the difference on other people. Sometimes, when flamboyant natural is very skinny, it looks like a dramatic to me.
I think I'm a flamboyant natural (I THINK😊) It's obvious to me because Naturals look more, manly. Dramatics don't look manly, they look, sharp, but not like men. Not like your typical man. Their hips are too narrow, their shoulders are too, slight. If they were a man they would look like they were starving, or like they hadn't finished growing. A Natural looks like your typical man (of the same height and size). If that makes sense.
@@ebbyc1817 flamboyant naturals are more square-ish and strong looking, yes. Also they have beautiful cheekbones, like flamboyant gamines. 😊 But I still cant decipher 100% It takes practice I guess 😊
Hello Maja, you remind me of Kate Winslet. Maybe you have the same body type as her.
I am FN, my Mom is dramatic. She has narrower shoulders, thin lips, pointy elbows, her wrists and ankles are really thin while mine are wide. I am more muscular and wider in general.
A dramatic looks slim and long, while a FN looks large and powerful
What confuses me sometimes are people who look Dramatic but aren't tall, like Oona Chaplin for instance. I'm guessing Oona is Gamine?
Book pleeeease! featuring wardrobe.makeup/hair. plenty of photos!!! Love the vids.....for now🤫😏
Yesterday I thought I was Flamb Natural, this morning Dramatic and now Soft Dramatic. I'm not sure yet ... 🙄
So fun learning about this from you. I’m a dramatic!
Now i know that i’am dramatic and not flamboyant gamine.
This new look is stunning on you! How did you create it?? Please do a video!
Curious...what happens if you dress a theatrical romantic in classic clothes?
She will probably look understated and "boring" , kinda like she needs to add something more to the outfit. On the other hand, SC will look absolutely harmonious in some understated "classic" and timeless pieces.
Really helpful! Still don't know what I am but this is helping :)
Very helpful!!
This is sometimes such a hard type to be.. I used to love fluffy clothes, But now I think I don't look good on, them.. It's a kibbe rabithole 😶sorry about my english😅
What if my body looks like a pure dramatic but my face is the complete opposite? I have kind of an oval/rectangular shaped face with chubby cheeks which doesn't resemble the stereotypical dramatic at all
I could never tell if I was a dramatic or a flamboyant natural. I'm tall (5'9), and have very long bones (legs, arms, feet, etc.), however I also have large hips with a rather big behind, despite being bony. I feel if I was a dramatic then I wouldn't have a soft- oblong face with large eyes. Am I a mix?
You can have some yin features in your face and be a D. You can also have a big butt and be one because Kibbe uses the front of our bodies and a curvy butt isn't taken into consideration there. It's about whether you have width (the fabric pulling around your shoulders/ribcage), or you are narrow all over and more 'straight' leaning. Maybe you can also take a look at celebs.
Im 5'5 i have all traits of dramatic body type, i do have a long vertical line but im not tall, am i still considered dramatic?
I found this www.petitepoire.ca/style/petite-body-types/kibbe-body-types-for-petites.html
Ds heights vary from moderate (about 5'5") to tall so yes.
great, thank you!
I'm beginning to think I am a theatrical romantic.
I'd love to see N vs DC and FG vs SN. Love your videos 💕
I thought I was dramatic classic at first, but I think I’m actually flamboyant natural. Can’t figure out for sure though...
sixth time watching through every video you have and I can confidently say I'm a dramatic.
Very straight, no hips, thin bones, thin lips, long torso, long thin nose, soft inverted triangle facial shape, small eyes, cheekbones are not angular, 5"6'. Now that I'm older, I look much softer! Currently losing the fleshy parts with weight loss. Guessing mostly Dramatic for myself. My weight gain has been in my torso. Yang energy for sure.
Looking at Jamie Lee Curtis' build I think I am dramatic. But I have been lifting heavy weights for years and so I do have muscle on my frame. It is hard won muscle though as I don't gain easily. That makes figuring this out much more difficult. If I lose body fat though, I am told I look too bony. Is that a clue?
Im a soft natural. Now I understand my body type. Feminine with a sharp bone structure
i didn't even know there is such a thing as a "dramatic body type"
Now I'm really confused. I'm pretty tall (180 cm), have sharp facial features even though I have full lips. Also I have thin and long fingers, small and thin feet. Sharp shoulders and collar bone with thin waist and small chest. On the other hand I have thick tights and bigger but. Even though I'm normal weight.
Watch next video. BUt in general only hips or lips don't make you a different type. Probably you are D or one of those higher types - LIke SD or FN
Cant wait for theatrical romantic vs others
you look absolutely gorgeous
Based on my height, I’m dramatic, but my face is very round, soft and what people call “feminine”. My torso sounds like dramatic, but my bottom is also pretty feminine and round, I shop for “curvy” when I need to buy bottoms because I have a pretty distinguishable waist to hips line. So I’m a little confused.
Sounds like soft dramatic to me
