Although I’ve given up trying to type myself, your descriptions of the different types is one of the most understandable that I’ve come across. Please do the body type clothing video. It will be fun to see how pretty you look in the different outfits. How’s Milo?
I'm a soft natural, but in every test I did, I kept getting soft classic. I think it's very hard to type yourself. What helped for me was posting a photo (faceless) on a Kibbe Reddit group. It takes a while to really see. Now (few years later) I can type mostly everyone I see, but the beginning was haaaaard. But once it clicks, it really clicks.
Yeah, I can’t figure this out because I don’t entirely fit into any of these categories. I’ll take this quiz linked, but every time I take a Kibbe quiz, I get a different result. More videos on this topic would be helpful since I really want to start dressing for my body type.
Oh, my gosh. This was both helpful and confusing. I can tell you put a lot of work into this video and it's outstanding!! I love watching you...I will probably watch this again to try to figure out my type. At 5'2" and a little soft (thanks to the covid 19) I am not sure; some classic, some soft natural ( soft, fleshy arms 😔) I like your style/type and think I am more soft natural than classic. Off topic, your skin looks flawless and so beautiful.
I took the online test twice and I always end up soft natural, although I am 178 cm tall. I don't know why. After watching your video and looking online, I understood that I am either a flamboyant natural or a soft dramatic. It's hard to understand, especially when you are overweight like me
So helpful! I feel like I need the description about Soft Dramatic playing on loop in my brain whenever I am shopping. Great tips at the end of the video too!
How interesting! thank you! I am venturing into a huge edit and clean out of my clothes and know that this is going to be very handy to refer to, especially if I can figure out my type! Well done!
yes! I want that video of you trying different lines! It would be so much fun! I'm a fellow Soft Classic, so I'm super into any tips you may have that work for you!
Oh Baiyina thank you so much for this in-depth information. Extremely helpful and will help me as I work through my weigh loss journey - keto and intermittent fasting - lost nearly 3 stone now which was actually the easiest ‘diet’ for me as a post menopausal woman in her late 50s. It is now my lifestyle not a diet and I am so much healthier! Can’t wait to shop for new clothes with this info in mind xx❤️👗
I'm pretty sure I'm soft gamine, or possibly soft classic depending on the definition. My work wardrobe is more soft classic and my leisure wardrobe is soft gamine. I'm pretty happy with those parameters - like you said, you can learn a lot about your style and how to approach shopping from thinking about kibbe types.
This was so interesting, thank you. Another follow up video would definitely be welcomed. The people that have been following you for a while, will definitely get it. I watched you through your personal transition/level-up and was in awe, still am (Hashtag goals). I’m definitely going to watch this again, need to take notes, and your tip about looking at your own wardrobe’s favorite“go-tos” definitely identifies a theme, for me anyway…just not sure if it’s the right theme. ☺️💫
Thank you for this great video. You had so many great examples & illustrations, I know it must have been a bish to edit. I haven’t been able to work out my body type but I will follow the links to have a deeper dive into this. 🙏
Wonderfully helpful! I am so glad that most of my 60 year old life I have worn a saree, that completely flatters my Asian figure, and always been applauded for my style. I am glad to know I am probably a romantic but I will take the quiz to help me identify which type of western outfits are most flattering to me. I have “figured” it out but I want to be sure, as I just love wearing linen trousers and loose shirt-like tops. Wonder if it is a comfort thing or I like to hide behind the loose fit.
13:47 based on that, Sarah Jessica Parker wouldn't classify as a flamboyant natural as she's short/petite. I guess this is what confuses me about these types. Are the height definitions strict? What if you find yourself almost equally in 3 - 4 categories. It's super confusing
the soft natural features match me the most, but im 5'! I thought i was theatrical romantic, but my hips are not that small and im wide in the shoulders, and my chin is quite sharp. I thought i was soft gamine, but im not that delicate. alright... i got work. Lol. Thanks for this video!
I've always wanted to do the Kibbe test, but I find it difficult to rely on photos of celebrities as body type references. Sara Jessica Parker is only 5'3" tall, but she appears so much taller in part because of her long face and legs. I don't see her as a Flamboyant Natural, (Brooke Shields is 6'.0). Her stylist is a magician!
I can’t figure out if I’m a gamine or a soft gamine. I have a smaller waist and slightly bigger hips..that’s what makes me lean more towards soft. But I also don’t have a big bust. Hmmmm
Other things to consider maybe: eye shape (more rounded or almond), lip shape/fullness, cheek shape/fullness. If they are all rounded/soft then you're probably more a soft gamine, if they're more a mix of sharp and round, then gamine
Can you do this sort of thing with wedding dresses and gowns? With the wedding season in tow, it would be great for bridal stylists like myself to know about this! Thanks for the videos ❤️
Love the video...not sure if I agree that Sarah Jessica Parker is flamboyant natural...she is very short. If she was taller, I would totally agree... But love the video. Thanks.
Based on your study, and personal experience, do you think one's type CHANGES with age or weight gains/losses? I am sure I was a Flamboyant Natural as a young woman, but I am in my late 60s now, and while far from overweight, I am still 5'10" but not 135 lbs anymore. I still gravitate to long verticals, oversize and bohemian lines, but wonder if I should be going in another direction. Did your type change with keto?
HI! From what I've read and experienced your Kibbe type does not change with weight gain or loss. Because proportion, length of limbs, features etc. also make up your kibbe type.
Is it possible to be a soft natural theatrical gamine. I’m very muscular naturally, 5’1” slim hourglass slightly pear shaped. I look great in color blocking but also draping. My face is no where near gamine.
Well, I'm either a soft classic or a soft gamine. Lol I'm 5'0, big bust, and narrow/small hips lol I'm not exactly petite, I can squeeze into petite sizing, depending on the stores some fit perfectly and others are an inch too small lol I'm confused!! Lol!!! Still love that you made this video. I'm gonna do more looking into this!!
I tried the test, and I can't quite make it work. I've got 6 C's and 5 D's, and no category fits that. The C's mostly come from body flesh, the D's from my face. Still a cool system though, way less rigid than the 5 shape system.
I feel like dont fit any of these categories. I am a spoon body type and am 5'8 with a balance of long torso and long legs, so I feel like I am more on the yang side, definitely not petite or rounded. I have larger hands and feet, large eyes and full hips and lips, and I have sharp shoulders and collar bones.
You might want to look into the natural body type - that's someone without an hourglass. It did take me a few months to find out mine - I wasn't sure if I was romantic or soft classic. Now that I know it's changed the way I get dressed! Feel free to check out the other videos I linked for another perspective if this interests you
Fabulous Video. I am 5'4 37 27 37 130 lbs. I have a round face with small nose and full lips. I have big legs with a 14 inch calf. My arms are fleshy. I tend to be soft when firm still soft. I look better with fitted clothing. I just recently bought several oversized dresses. I wear with a belt. Which is against how the dresses are supposed to look. I love the bohemian looks and the total classic looks but could never pull them off...my comfort level just shifts...to make a long story short I could never figure out why. Then I watched your video and promptly put the oversized dress and jacket back in the box and sending it back. Getting dressed is so aggravating. I don't wear shorts, sleeveless or a bathing suit. I look way better in a Marilyn type of dresses but I am not large busted. As soon as I lose weight the bust goes down 2 inches along with the waist and hips. Thank you for posting this. I am going to re-watch and try and figure this out By the way you are more gorgeous every day. Hugs xo
My problem is that I have a very long and angular (also flat) body, but then my face is more soft and fuller (more oval but with a wider forehead). What do you think I would be then?
I am now so obsessed with this system. I hadn’t heard of Kibbe until I watched this video, and it’s seriously mind blowing. I’m so obviously a romantic (and the test proved it), and now I know why I could never wear so many things, even though I tried. Thank you! I’m so excited to embrace my reality!
I'm trying to figure out my type but is not going well. I am 5'7, hourglass (34-24-35) with small bone structure, exotic face. When I gain weight it goes in my upper arms boobs and butt. I have big eyes, full lips, high and fleshy cheeks, straight nose. My body is slim, long legs and short waist.
So I was typed at a TR- however when i gain weight I gain around my midsection first. TR’s I thought are supposed to keep their hourglass figure even after weight gain…
i am trying to figure out what I am for. month:)).. I am tall 172 cm , wide hips, chest is medium. My face has proeminent nose , medium lips slightly full , small eyes , thin hair . I think I might be a soft romantic or maybe classic. I have no idea :(
So I took a test and it told me that I'm more on the flamboyant gamine side, but I'm 5'7". Is it not possible to be that height and still be flamboyant gamine? :(
No I don’t think so because of height. I mentioned in the video it takes some time to figure this out. Try looking at the garments you have that you feel look best on you and what kibbe style correlates to that style/characteristic of clothing
@@baiyinadotcom Interesting! I felt the need to ask because Audrey Hepburn is the textbook flamboyant gamine and she was also 5'7" so I was like hmm, maybe it's possible for me too.
This was very interesting, but I do wonder where tall curvier girls would fit. I have an hourglass shape and soft, rounded facial features, but I'm 5'10.
That’s crazy I JUST discovered what a type even was less the 30 mins ago and immediately thought hmmmm what’s a flamboyant natural and BAM ! That’s my type 😆😆😆😆 I’m literally 5’10 137 never over 145 since I’ve been vegan mostly curvy tho being I have a small waist but hips and little butt small boobs Hate having to shop for anything I want to touch my wrist and my ankles because I’m so LONG 😩😩I’ve done a little runways but despite the shape it’s not for me 😆 ( not very graceful) also get compared to Issa Rae a lot thank you so much !
I don’t fit into any of them 100%. I’m more of a mixture of several types. I give up trying to figure it out lol. I will just keep dressing in my comfy clothes and not try any more. 😂
Sarah Jessica Parker is 5’3”. So, is she still considered a Flamboyant Natural with being so short?? It’s difficult to pin point which body type I truly am. Do you consider what weight you currently are, or should you go off your ideal weight for your height?? I found this extremely interesting. Thank you 😊
Weight doesn't affect your body shape as the way you put on/lose weight depends on your body shape. As for the height, unless you are extremely short/tall, I think it is better to consider your vertical line (i.e. how tall you appear to look in a photo with a plain background). Typically this is the head size vs height ratio. If you have a big head for your height, you will look shorter even if you are taller (look at Rihanna as an example, this is why she is theatrical romantic despite being 5'7). Likewise if you have a small head for your height, you will look taller even if you are short (why Lucy Liu is a dramatic despite being 5'3)
@@thehalfbloodserb Rihanna is not a TR kibbe said it was an off the cuff remark after seeing a picture of her when she was very young. He hasn’t seen her in person, and said that if she’s actually that height she can not be TR.
Your video does a great job of more diverse examples. I was doubtful cause a lot of their examples were very skinny white phenotypes (especially the nose types) but I landed on theatrical romantic. The aesthetic and recommended shapes were pretty accurate to what clothes already make me feel my best vs styles that make me feel dumpy. I think this confirmed why some pieces I have aren't working that I couldn't let go of because they're supposed to be essential (a hard straight cut denim levi jacket that I hate wearing and didn't know why). They should have more curvy/overweight picture examples to be more helpful and different ethnicities for the facial features but I feel like this was a great exercise.
This was a great video and very informative. When I first did the Kibbe test I got soft classic, but now I've gotten so self conscious since asking other ppl and being told I have broad shoulders haha. Not sure my type anymore since symmetrical outfits look better on me than unconstructed (so I'm leaning more towards classic) but I honestly got so much more confused. I like the idea of checking out the clothes that I like best in my closet though to help narrow it down so I might try doing that!
Yeah…first thought..isn’t SJP a teensy little girl?? And then..where does a 5’9” solidly built but not chubby gal with small bone structure of Slavic background sort of fit this?? I’m not meaning to be a snot…but I sure ain’t fittin’ in with supermodels…and this list seems to focus on petite to short ladies….
I love your interior design advice, but I think this is nonsense. Kim K and Sarah JP as the same body type? Twiggy was a model and her height was 5 food six, not short.
This was cool, can't wait till you show us on your shopping tripl! I didn't see Soft Classic or Theatrical Romantic in the time stamp? I think I'm Romantic or Soft Classic.
I recommend looking at Merriam Style's videos, she has a slightly different system now but a lot more intuitive I think (focusing on the overall vibe/look of the person, seeing how lines of different clothing silhouettes affect the body)
I'm having such a hard time figuring out what I am. If I was shorter I would say theatrical romantic, but I'm 5'8". I have a smaller bone structure with small hands and feet for my height, small waist, small shoulders, but fleshy upper arms and thighs. I've always gained weight in my butt 😂. Maybe dramatic classic or soft natural?
I still don't know what I could be... I went from thinking I was a classic, to a soft dramatic, then a soft natural. I am 5'8'' , i have a hourglass shape but not extremely so. Quite large hips and bust, large shoulders, but again, not extremely so. My body has more yang elements it seems, cause my bones are big (big collar bones, big hands,big knees etc.) and I'm tall, but i also have somewhat of a curvy figure with my hourglass shape, and I am not super lean and athletic, especially my arms, they're quite fleshy. When it comes to my face instead, I can only see Yin, I have small round features, visible plump cheeks, small nose, full lips, little contrast between neck and jaw line, which is soft. Anyone have an idea where I could fit?
It sounds like you might be between types. Generally classic/gamine types fit this because they are more in the middle of the spectrum (classic having lots of blended features, not too sharp, not too soft, not too tall, not too short etc) while gamines have a mixture of opposites (some sharp next to some soft, some long bones next to some short bones) so I'd recommend looking at these types first. It might also be best to first focus on what type you are definitely not/which clothes definitely don't suit you as guidance for which type you may be (dramatics are worst in romantic clothes and vice versa, classics are worst in natural, naturals are worst in gamine, and gamines are debatably worst in natural/romantic)
Also I recommend looking at some youtubers like aly art or merriam style for more guidance, aly art's is more by the book while merriam style's is more intuitive/easy to grasp imo

I'm a soft natural, but in every test I did, I kept getting soft classic. I think it's very hard to type yourself. What helped for me was posting a photo (faceless) on a Kibbe Reddit group. It takes a while to really see. Now (few years later) I can type mostly everyone I see, but the beginning was haaaaard. But once it clicks, it really clicks.

You are an excellent teacher. So clear thorough and articulate. Thx for all you do. Love the variety of your content.
I’m a flamboyant gamine. Now I know why lots of romantic ruffles look really bad on me. Thanks. That makes shopping so much easier.
I have taken the Kibbe test several times and most often got Classic. You have shown me that I am soft Classic. Thank you!
Oh, my gosh. This was both helpful and confusing. I can tell you put a lot of work into this video and it's outstanding!! I love watching you...I will probably watch this again to try to figure out my type. At 5'2" and a little soft (thanks to the covid 19) I am not sure; some classic, some soft natural ( soft, fleshy arms 😔) I like your style/type and think I am more soft natural than classic.
Off topic, your skin looks flawless and so beautiful.
I’ve always admired her beautiful skin tone and flawless complexion too. ☺️
But natural or classic are for more than 5.6 height, so is it possible for such as in ur heights to be in such group too?
I took the online test twice and I always end up soft natural, although I am 178 cm tall. I don't know why. After watching your video and looking online, I understood that I am either a flamboyant natural or a soft dramatic.
It's hard to understand, especially when you are overweight like me
So helpful! I feel like I need the description about Soft Dramatic playing on loop in my brain whenever I am shopping. Great tips at the end of the video too!
It would be so fun to see your interpretation of the kibbe body types as interior design styles!
Yes! As a flamboyant natural I see that my space does mostly match that vibe. Eclectic leaning more towards a bohemian style.
That will be so interesting...Hugs xo
Really looking forward to part 2.. This was so interesting. And informative..
You did so good with this! It was a long time coming. Lots of work I bet. Thank you!
Thank you!
I love this subject….so helpful! I’m also a soft classic. Looking forward to part two on this subject!
Yessssssssss! I’m a soft classic and loved your previous video on it. More of these would be fabulous 🙌🏼
How interesting! thank you! I am venturing into a huge edit and clean out of my clothes and know that this is going to be very handy to refer to, especially if I can figure out my type! Well done!
Thank you. You mentioned Anthropologie & Free People. Can you also note clothing retailers for the other body types?
yes! I want that video of you trying different lines! It would be so much fun! I'm a fellow Soft Classic, so I'm super into any tips you may have that work for you!
Oh Baiyina thank you so much for this in-depth information.

Please can you do a video on Halloween costumes for the body types, if you release it around the start of October I bet it would do really well :)
I was watching when you first started your keto. You look FAAAABULOUS!!!
Super helpful! I believe I am a soft natural - plus size 16, hourglass, 5’7”, 10.5 shoe, very wide bones (ankles, wrists), wide face with blunt chin.
Fun! I love the kibbe system. I’m also a soft classic. Excited for part two!

The amount of information you covered is awesome! I still can’t figure out which one I am lol
This was So helpful!!! I think I am a flamboyant Gamine with tapered shoulders and long,arms, hands and narrow feet.
Love the video...not sure if I agree that Sarah Jessica Parker is flamboyant natural...she is very short. If she was taller, I would totally agree... But love the video. Thanks.
She is a FG. They just tupe her as FN because of her vibe.
Love your idea for the next post! 🤩

@@sonakotian925 no, I just gave up on it. I think if you'd really really like to know, you could pay a consultant to type you.
@@strawberrycheesecake5502 Thank you for ur reply.
I think the closest match is flamboyant natural for me, although at 5'8" I don't know if I'm too short for that type.
Sarah Jessica Parker is an FG and she is 5'3".
Definitely not too short

@@ashye5390 Hi Ashy thank you so much. That is so nice of you to respond to me. You are so kind. Hugs xo
i did a test and got soft classic but im 5ft 2 so now im confused after watching this video :(
Congratulations to ALL body types! Each one is gorgeous in her or his (since the Kibbe body image identity system is for men too) own right.
My problem is that I have a very long and angular (also flat) body, but then my face is more soft and fuller (more oval but with a wider forehead). What do you think I would be then?
Soft classic for me... Gains weight in the middle :( I would totally watch the TJmax episode!

Probably some sort of natural
I am supposedly a theatrical romantic but I’m 179cm(5’10) so am I still theatrical romantic if I’m tall?

Either theatrical romantic or soft gamine. I’m having a hard time figuring out which
So I took a test and it told me that I'm more on the flamboyant gamine side, but I'm 5'7". Is it not possible to be that height and still be flamboyant gamine? :(
No I don’t think so because of height. I mentioned in the video it takes some time to figure this out. Try looking at the garments you have that you feel look best on you and what kibbe style correlates to that style/characteristic of clothing
@@baiyinadotcom Interesting! I felt the need to ask because Audrey Hepburn is the textbook flamboyant gamine and she was also 5'7" so I was like hmm, maybe it's possible for me too.
This is so confusing. I'm almost sure I'm Classic but I'm 5'9
I'm nowhere lol. I have a slim body 5'7 soft face. So with a soft face and more tight body where do I fit? 🤣
This was very interesting, but I do wonder where tall curvier girls would fit. I have an hourglass shape and soft, rounded facial features, but I'm 5'10.
Soft dramatic
@@baiyinadotcom Thank you!
This is excellent. Thank you!
One more thing. You truly look wonderful.
A romantic here, unfortunately, there don’t seem to be any current celebs that are romantic type and photographed often for me to get tips.
Emilia Clarke is a good example of a romantic
@@thehalfbloodserb thanks!
That’s crazy I JUST discovered what a type even was less the 30 mins ago and immediately thought hmmmm what’s a flamboyant natural and BAM ! That’s my type 😆😆😆😆 I’m literally 5’10 137 never over 145 since I’ve been vegan mostly curvy tho being I have a small waist but hips and little butt small boobs Hate having to shop for anything I want to touch my wrist and my ankles because I’m so LONG 😩😩I’ve done a little runways but despite the shape it’s not for me 😆 ( not very graceful) also get compared to Issa Rae a lot thank you so much !
What if you are short and big bone structure like a Gamine but then you are resemble a theatrical natural 😓😓
I don’t fit into any of them 100%. I’m more of a mixture of several types. I give up trying to figure it out lol. I will just keep dressing in my comfy clothes and not try any more. 😂
Is SJP really a flamboyant natural? She's so short
Romantic. This video was helpful
Can you be 5 ft 4 and soft dramatic?
Sarah Jessica Parker is 5’3”. So, is she still considered a Flamboyant Natural with being so short?? It’s difficult to pin point which body type I truly am. Do you consider what weight you currently are, or should you go off your ideal weight for your height?? I found this extremely interesting. Thank you 😊
Weight doesn't affect your body shape as the way you put on/lose weight depends on your body shape. As for the height, unless you are extremely short/tall, I think it is better to consider your vertical line (i.e. how tall you appear to look in a photo with a plain background). Typically this is the head size vs height ratio. If you have a big head for your height, you will look shorter even if you are taller (look at Rihanna as an example, this is why she is theatrical romantic despite being 5'7). Likewise if you have a small head for your height, you will look taller even if you are short (why Lucy Liu is a dramatic despite being 5'3)
@@thehalfbloodserb Rihanna is not a TR kibbe said it was an off the cuff remark after seeing a picture of her when she was very young. He hasn’t seen her in person, and said that if she’s actually that height she can not be TR.
Soooo useful! ❤️❤️❤️
Your video does a great job of more diverse examples. I was doubtful cause a lot of their examples were very skinny white phenotypes (especially the nose types) but I landed on theatrical romantic. The aesthetic and recommended shapes were pretty accurate to what clothes already make me feel my best vs styles that make me feel dumpy. I think this confirmed why some pieces I have aren't working that I couldn't let go of because they're supposed to be essential (a hard straight cut denim levi jacket that I hate wearing and didn't know why). They should have more curvy/overweight picture examples to be more helpful and different ethnicities for the facial features but I feel like this was a great exercise.
I know I’m one of the body types under 5 feet lol but which
Ooi!!! Poderia por legenda por favor? Obrigada pelo conteúdo 😉👏👏👏
Anyone have a hard time typing yourself because body dysmorphia
This was a great video and very informative. When I first did the Kibbe test I got soft classic, but now I've gotten so self conscious since asking other ppl and being told I have broad shoulders haha. Not sure my type anymore since symmetrical outfits look better on me than unconstructed (so I'm leaning more towards classic) but I honestly got so much more confused. I like the idea of checking out the clothes that I like best in my closet though to help narrow it down so I might try doing that!
Checking my closet helped me settle on soft classic
Yeah…first thought..isn’t SJP a teensy little girl??
And then..where does a 5’9” solidly built but not chubby gal with small bone structure of Slavic background sort of fit this?? I’m not meaning to be a snot…but I sure ain’t fittin’ in with supermodels…and this list seems to focus on petite to short ladies….
At that height you’re either dramatic, soft dramatic or flamboyant natural
thank you!!!
I am tall and curvy
I love your interior design advice, but I think this is nonsense. Kim K and Sarah JP as the same body type? Twiggy was a model and her height was 5 food six, not short.
Kim k and sjp aren’t the same type
I'm so confused. I watched this 13 times and still don't know my type
Can men use this as well?
That’s a really good question. I’m honestly not sure?
This was cool, can't wait till you show us on your shopping tripl! I didn't see Soft Classic or Theatrical Romantic in the time stamp? I think I'm Romantic or Soft Classic.
oops, thank you for catching that! Just updated. :)
I did a test recently and could not have been more inaccurate 😂
I feel like I am none of these types 😭
I recommend looking at Merriam Style's videos, she has a slightly different system now but a lot more intuitive I think (focusing on the overall vibe/look of the person, seeing how lines of different clothing silhouettes affect the body)
I'm having such a hard time figuring out what I am. If I was shorter I would say theatrical romantic, but I'm 5'8". I have a smaller bone structure with small hands and feet for my height, small waist, small shoulders, but fleshy upper arms and thighs. I've always gained weight in my butt 😂. Maybe dramatic classic or soft natural?
I still don't know what I could be... I went from thinking I was a classic, to a soft dramatic, then a soft natural. I am 5'8'' , i have a hourglass shape but not extremely so. Quite large hips and bust, large shoulders, but again, not extremely so. My body has more yang elements it seems, cause my bones are big (big collar bones, big hands,big knees etc.) and I'm tall, but i also have somewhat of a curvy figure with my hourglass shape, and I am not super lean and athletic, especially my arms, they're quite fleshy. When it comes to my face instead, I can only see Yin, I have small round features, visible plump cheeks, small nose, full lips, little contrast between neck and jaw line, which is soft. Anyone have an idea where I could fit?
At 5’8 you can narrow it down to D, SD, or FN because at that height you have automatic vertical
I wonder if you can be a bit of all? I resonated with a few of these..
It sounds like you might be between types. Generally classic/gamine types fit this because they are more in the middle of the spectrum (classic having lots of blended features, not too sharp, not too soft, not too tall, not too short etc) while gamines have a mixture of opposites (some sharp next to some soft, some long bones next to some short bones) so I'd recommend looking at these types first. It might also be best to first focus on what type you are definitely not/which clothes definitely don't suit you as guidance for which type you may be (dramatics are worst in romantic clothes and vice versa, classics are worst in natural, naturals are worst in gamine, and gamines are debatably worst in natural/romantic)
Also I recommend looking at some youtubers like aly art or merriam style for more guidance, aly art's is more by the book while merriam style's is more intuitive/easy to grasp imo
@@thehalfbloodserb Thank you, yes I will check them out!
@@thehalfbloodserb makes a lot of sense, thank you!
I am 5'10 soft looking but tall.
Not all soft gamines are that short.
I am a soft classic.
13:33 "you're not wide" you haven't seen me then lol
