I see a division of opinions in the comments on what my Kibbe body type actually is, so I decided to try the Kibbe recommendations for 4 different image ID's to see if there is actually a drastic difference! Check out if you can determine my image ID based on the different outfits :)

    I think Soft Natural styling fits you in a beautiful and elegant way.
  • Although the others look fine; I think the slight waist emphasis in the soft natural silhouette is very flattering.
  • Based on your choices you are with no doubt a natural and in my opinion soft. 👍
  • @eve_in_paris
    Soft natural, with boyish/masculine/dramatic styling ! In any way, you look beautiful 🤩
  • I think the soft natural versions look very harmonizing on your body 😊
  • So many people use Kibbe, color analysis, style essence etc. as rules instead of tools. They are confused because they think dressing according to these will give you style but style is taking who you are and expressing that to the world around you through the clothing you wear. Even if dresses opposite of best lines or colors if it’s authentic to the person it’ll likely work (there are some exceptions).😊
  • @AudreyM-dz2qp
    The outfits with waist emphasis look best on you. So Soft Natural? I think the clothes that are loose or big on you overwhelm your body. For dresses, ankle length or above is more flattering on you.

    I'll swim against the currents here and I'll say I think you got it right since the beginning. Vertical is having literal elongation (being tall) or having a prolonged straight line through the body, which is why short people aren't automatically disqualified from vertical-dominant IDs. It's clearly not too common but it can happen and I think you might be the perfect example of that! I also think width appears to be very clear on you. Besides all of that, the common problem with Kibbe's system and its discourse on youtube/tiktok is that people tend to reduce it to body parts and to trying the outdated clothing recommendations that were made for the 80s when it's pretty much an essence-based system too. Flamboyant Gamines have a playful sassiness to them that doesn't match the laid-back straight-to-the-point vibe that we see on your videos (and the same goes with Soft Naturals and their sensual girl-next-door type of beauty they emanate). I think that you match better with FN in most aspects and not only with the way clothes look on you Also for anyone who might see this (if someone does lol): Putting belts or emphasizing our waist is not something reserved to yin types, every type can do it and every type can look great with it

    The tied shirt looks the best in my opinion. The blazer is too long and over-sized. The long dress: I like it with the belt. But the white dress was my favorite. The shirts: the last one. I love stripes!
  • @Anita-silver
    Tying the shirt at the waist and the belted waist are great on FN as well as SN because neither are severe at the waist. I'm an FN and wear both.
  • I like the Soft Natural styles on you the best. Although you do look adorable in some of the FG, you seem much more comfortable in the SN. Great video❤
  • @annalynn9325
    You seem to have good intuition about what looks good on you. I’ve never really had that intuition for myself. That is why knowing my kibbe is valuable to me, because now I don’t wear things that look awkward, nor buy things I’ll never wear.
  • @gigglegrl7405
    I wish that we could have seen all of the outfits with your face included. That being said, I really think that natural family vibed with you while the DC and FG looked incongruent with your frame especially that cropped jacket. Donate that puppy now! I liked a little bit of oversizedness. I think your instincts were correct. You could do another video pairing FN and SN and show your face. Then we can say for sure.
  • Don't forget FG is OPPOSITES. Skinny top with baggy pants, which I think looks great on you. Loose top with skinny skirt or leggings. I think you are FG. That black dress with the cutouts was great. Look at all the possibilities that are there for you under that category. The cropped jacket was perfect, but didn't work with that long skirt. Try it with a short skirt. You are cute! Embrace that. Try pulling your hair up. And please do include color and pattern if you do another similar video in the future.
  • @neon.neutral
    The black dress in a maxi length would be 🤩🤩
  • I genuinely do not see curve or petite. I understand how people don’t see a super long vertical line on you, but you definitely don’t look short either. I know Kibbe fans are still upset about Sarah Jessica Parker being a shorter FN and maybe you are an outlier like she is. I prefer the FN and DC lines on you the most. Gamine feels stuffy and constricted. SN wasn’t bad, but I also don’t think it was optimal.
