    This is the video I've been waiting for. I've got a very dramatic face and much softer body, lol. I tend to fit in the classic category the most, but I always need a mix of ying and yang in my clothing to bring my face and body together.

    This is so interesting because little things can really throw people off on types. Charlize was always dressed & photographed as more Romantic so people would never think she was Natural. Madonna as a dancer has always been muscular so people never thought she was Romantic. I think models & actresses in general sometimes get cast as a different type/vibe than they really are.

    • @Lazystylist
      @Lazystylist Před 2 lety +7

      Earlier in Charlize career she was styled more romantically. However it appears that has she became more established she wore more FN. I sometimes find the movie styling a lot more interesting and helpful, especially when the actors / actresses are playing a confident characters. As wardrobe director have a short period of time to convince the audience that the representation is believable.

    In my opinion, the reason we get confused by one or two opposing characteristics in the face compared to the body - is just because of that - because they are obviously opposing to the rest of the body and will stick out. Think of a completely blue painting, with two tiny dots of red placed somewhere on the canvas, you're definitely going to notice it immediately, but that doesn't suddenly make the painting into a red painting, or a purple painting. The painting is still blue, with two small dots of red.
    I think it's very rare for a person to have a body, face and essence that fits into one category or type. I think those types of women that fit completely into one type are forefronted by Kibbe because they are great visual examples to illustrate the archetypes. One or two characteristics that differ from your type, doesn't make you into a different type instead, or into a "hybrid" type, it's just essence or a vibe that needs to be included in your style to illustrate your personality. Not every classic will look like Grace Kelly. Being a classic means that on the yin/yang scale your combination isn't tipping the scale in any direction, it is a perfect blend between the two.
    Colouring also plays a big role. For exampel, a spring will probably be thought of as more yin because bright, animated and warm colours are by definition more yin in essence. Winters will appear to have more drama or yang in them, because their colours are darker, cool and brilliant, even severe. Autumn colours will give a natural vibe, because they are colours found in forests, or in greenery etc. Summers might look more balanced because their colours are cool, soft and mellow and give a calm impression.

    I think it’s also important to add that until recently, there wasn’t much diversity with kibbe typing. I feel like most POC get typed in the natural category. I feel like I’m a pure SC or even DC, but because some of my features are labeled “exotic” I get sort of lumped in with the wrong types often.

    • @mariannek6735
      @mariannek6735 Před 2 lety +61

      I'm middle eastern and a romantic, but because my nose is sharper and longer than most white romantics, I doubted that a little and thought maybe I was theatrical romantic instead (as they're supposed to have a little more sharpness to them). But this is just how middle eastern noses look usually, and compared to other middle easterners my nose is actually kind of rounded and soft in the shape. So I just think like that, as an extra step I compare myself with people from my part of the world (based on my experience).

    • @missstorrm
      @missstorrm Před 2 lety +58

      Agree. The way I understand Kibbe, is that we should look at the "category" of people in general, draw some average and go from there to find the type of a specific person. By category i mean not only race, but features typical in given geography. For example, if we say gamine should be max 5'4, the 95% of women in SE Asia will be gamines. But if we understand that 5'2 is average hight (not short) in this part of the world, suddenly all the Kibbe types shift and we have many more options.

      @@mariannek6735 Hi...I’m Middle Eastern too, and it’s important not to focus too much on the face when typing. I do notice that most women I meet (and even my family members) are mostly theatrical romantics, very petite with sharpness, even our traditional dresses, elaborate jewelry and make up styles are very TR. My face is TR as well, but I am abit tall for an Arab girl (5’5), my body suits SC better. So it’s totally possible that their bodies are pure yin while they have abit of sharpness in the face, they’d be R rather than TR, like in your case.

    Just like so many of the other comments - this is the video I needed! I’m 5’ 2.5” and absolutely 100% theatrical romantic from my collar bones down, but from my shoulders up, I’m too angular to wear ornate or frilly. It’s a total disconnect with my face. I’ve landed on Soft Classic as what works for me.

      Yes, I relate, I am the opposite...I’m 5’5, TR face, SC body. My mom was a shorter TR, and I look exactly like her facially but my body structure is more moderate, slightly taller. I do the opposite, I do ornate and intricate above my shoulders (hair, make-up, earrings, necklace), but other than that I do SC...too much yin details on my body is very unflattering and frumpy looking.

Or think of Hannah Schygulla, a German actress, who is Soft Gamine and, similarly to Helena, often played Victorian or Old Hollywood characters.

      It's funny because even though flamboyant naturals are supposed to have so much yang and strength in their bone structure, but I honestly think most FN's have what is associated with a "baby face" because there's often so much width in their upper body including their face. When you have a wider face rather than long it can make it seem short or even round which looks youthful. Most FN's also have fuller cheeks, wider and shorter noses and further apart eyes.. to me those are features that remind me of a baby lol. The difference is if they stand next to a soft gamine or romantic with a baby face then their features all of a sudden appear very strong

When I observe someone who is dressed in their lines in motion, they elude a level of confidence, easy beauty and authenticity that is harder to achieve when they wear other lines. The only exception that I have found is when the person is wearing their colours. I find radiant skin very alluring.

    I’ve thought I am every different type so far. I kept coming back to the natural family because of my shoulders and some width, but I always drowned in natural clothes or soft/flamboyant natural. How could this be? Then I would go back and forth between dramatic, romantic, natural, classic… no lines seemed right. I figured I can’t be a gamine because I’m not narrow. But then I read kibbe’s description of flamboyant gamine. FGs are broadly angular. That’s me! That’s why my face is all over A and D/E answers and my body doesn’t seem to “match”. It’s because I’m flamboyant gamine. I just have to add some little bit of femininity to that, and then my look is good.
    But at the end of the day, I learned that we shouldn’t get too far down the kibbe rabbit hole. I think it’s good to be aware that straighter features look best in straighter lines and rounder features look best in rounder lines and it’s a continuum of that, but if we get too far into it then that’s where we run into these issue of “what if my facd doesn’t match” or “my cheeks are puffy even though everything else is A so I can’t be dramatic”. I think it’s best to have this kibbe framework and then put it to the side and just use good judgement from there.
    For example, Taylor Swift is a dramatic. She looks best with long lines in her clothes. So then why does the straight bob not suit her as much as slight waves and curls? Because her face has some sweetness to it. If we live and die by the kibbe law, Taylor would be stuck with stiff lines which doesn’t work over her entire face/body. However, because we understand kibbe, we would know not to give her Marilyn Monroe curls. That would make TS look hard. We know to accommodate her sweet face with straighter soft waves and curls. I hope this makes sense.
    This is how different types in the same exact category differ because a dramatic like Kiera Knightli, while she is also flattered by straight lines, doesn’t have that sweet look so she should be styled more edgy whereas TS can’t pull that off even though she’s also dramatic. They both need straight lines, but different touches here and there within that. At the end of the day, this is why I am happy to understand Kibbe but then toss it to the side as use loose rules and good judgement with my looks personally.

    Great video, as usual. I feel incredibly fortunate when I watch videos like this & also read comments. When I first discovered this system, I thought I was a soft gamine for about five minutes. Then I let someone help me with the quiz & overall assessment & TR became very obvious. Now that I understand the system better it’s obvious anyway. I have a TR face. I have a TR body. I look extremely better in TR clothing lines than other lines. I have gradually made my wardrobe TR & I look much better & feel happier & get more compliments. Pure R lines clearly don’t suit me as well, so even that doesn’t cause confusion. I didn’t realize right away how hard this can be for people when the right type is so much less clear. I’m seriously rooting for everyone to reach their point of clarity with their type & have the fun I’ve had with mine.

    Hi Aly, I really appreciate your insight and contribution to the world of esthetics! Your interpretation of Kibbe body types is outstanding! I have a personal question for you and the followers: my face is classic and according to the test I’m dramatic classic. But since my body is very elongated and frame dominant ( large shoulders) , I believe I’m flamboyant natural. What style recommendations should I follow?

  • @tatianamendoncastudio
    @tatianamendoncastudio Před 2 lety +11

    I always love your videos. Commenting on face types and ageing: Charlize Theron for example, I think she lost some muscle mass after starting ageing, when she played in The Devils Advocate (1997) she was younger and had other hair style, she looked very soft, but look at her at the movie "The Old Guard" (2020), she is really sharp and has a more "boney" face - which I also love... Other examples on your video that changed face type a lot with age (or weight loss), but specially age. The amount of "flesh" on the face makes a huge difference I guess. I myself was always so skinny and had huge cheeks, well now I am 42 and lost a bit of face muscle/mass, but gained some body weight. When people who know me see only my face on photos or video calls they say I didnt change, but my face stayed almost the same, but the body went from Zendaya to Beyonce, specially the lower body part, legs and hips. Madonna kept that shape with age, she just got a bit stronger. If I decide to "improve" my features with age, (or just retard the effects of ageing), for me the most important thing is trying to go closer to your young self, not change the face into a completely different person (like Madonna). Someone who did it in a great way is Halle Berry, and there are other great examples like Jenifer Lopes and other +50 people... By the way I am not against plastic surgery and don´t mean to shame anyone. I love Madonna anyways, no matter what...

    Thank you for this video! Because of such differences & Because I do not look like celebrities I could do not tell if I am dramatic, Flamboyant gamine, or Natural/FN what made things worse for me is the fact that some dressing recommendations for FN look AMAZING on me but also some recommendations of both dramatic or FG look AMAZING on me! So I could not box myself which is the good news here I guess. The thing that I came up with is that I have to mix Yin & Yang qualities in my look otherwise I would look weirdly long or too obviously skinny...for example if the fabric is lightweight (Yin), the edges be sharp and it's details should be minimal (Yang) and it better fit me (Yin) and so on

    I'm 5'5 and with me, it's usually the opposite. People see me and think "Oh, you must be around 5'6-5'8" and then I stand next to them, they're like "see, I've told you, you're tall"-then, I step out of my heels & they're surprised how "short" I am.

    At first I was going really deep into trying to match face and body for clothes and accessories recommendations. But that's the thing: my body is pure R, and my face is G (also essence-wise, no one ever said anything other than G).
    I started choosing clothes that are tapered, with waist emphasis, light fabrics... But nothing too womanly, to match my vibe (kinda tomboy-ish?). I add some spice with patterns in my purses/backpacks and shoes.
    And I would say I look really lovely like this! I finally don't look like I'm trying too hard

    I was so thrown off by the fact that certain details are not supposed to look good on me when they fit me very well, because there are romantic details that match my face and my essence, but it was very difficult for me to reach my decision and come to terms with the fact that I'm a SD

    I’m having a hard time choose between SC, DC and SN. Analyzing the results of the entirety of my Kibbe test would place me as a soft classic. I did my test using a dead on photo in underwear, multiple photos of me over the years, and using a variety of image consultants pictures references w/ Kibbe descriptions). My body is well balanced between yin-yang with a slight tendency towards more yin. I have some narrow length to my arms, hands and feet, ankles and wrists… and have more muscular thighs. This gives me 2-3 A/B answers (even though musculature is confusing, because it’s only my lower body and Kibbe seem to look for muscular in the shoulders and arms). What tips me towards “soft” is actually my face, as it is very yang leaning. If Kibbe is all about wearing our lines, shouldn’t I give more weight to the results of my body than those of my face? Perhaps I am DC within my body, but SC in my face?
    The SN comes from me not understanding how the musculature in my lower body plays a role, though I do not have wideness or broadness in my shoulders or arms at all. Ultimately, I always end up ruling out SN because the natural beauty in my face and body is brought out in classic lines and I tend to look underdone in natural lines.
    If I gain weight too fast, I can begin to look broader because I gain fat in my abdomen first and then my lower body second (typical for a DC); if I gain weight slowly, I become more pear shaped from the start and never look broad. Pear-shaped weight gain is also typical for DC.
    From this, it seems like I’m obviously DC but my face throws me off!

I also stay away from the ultra bohemian vibe and go for more of floor length kimonos/waterfall jackets. For feminine clothing, I’ve found that fitted A line dresses help balance out the width of my upper shoulders. Long bell or flared sleeves also tie in to the Yang of my height (5’ 10”)

I think is part of their exotic and free nature vibe, they brake the rules! Since we are told Naturals are a soft yang and flamboyant naturals are even more yang you wouldnt expect such soft faces. The same happens when you find curvy flamboyant naturals! You cant make a lot of assumptions with them.

What is your advice? Do you think I've typed myself incorrectly, or do you think I can learn to be comfortable in more "feminine" styles of clothing?
