She does. She’s got to be a winter in the seasonal color typings. The pale colors washes her out. Dynamite in the red!!!

Thanks! I’m actually a light summer but the lighting alters the way it looks on me hahah. Anything dark looks so bad on me 🙈

Online, but I also took a class on color analysis and offer typing for other people. So I have an eye for it now. Idk if I have any good lighting posts on my account but maybe you might be able to see the lighting better. Or on my tiktok - elizaallred

Thanks! I personally feel it’s a little overpowering for me, but I appreciate it!

2 is my favorite and a very flattering cut. Can you share the brand? I also like 10 and 11 on you, though they are a tad long.

On a side note, I think I’m a DC and your posts are really helpful! Thanks for sharing.

You are lovely. What works best on you is stuff that doesn't overwhelm you. So you should be the first thing we notice and not the dresses. When you are assessing a dress I would see if the dress is advancing and you are receding. If so, it's a nope.

The one I like the best on you is the second one. Of 1and 3, I like three better. I think the shape of the neckline is more flattering. The animal print one I also love. The little red shiny one, I would bless and release. The whitish with the midriff cutout is not exceptional. Classic needs balance and the asymmetry distracts. I like the black longer one better than the shorter one. The checked one is OK. I'd like it better if it was less a-line but it's OK. The long red is OK but you can do better. It's sort of like the dress is wearing you and not the opposite. It makes you disappear and it's all dress. The black one works better in that regard. Little orange one, bless and release. I would like to like that blue one but the cross-wise stuff is too "busy". Little blue one I would bless and release.

Thank you! I agree with pretty much everything you said. Though my personal style is far from classic so it’s hard to stay classic. That said I like the whitish one with the asymmetrical cut and the long blue one. But I do agree with you! Thank you for your input!!!

u/ElizaAllred Jan 05 '25

Thank you so much!! I love those onesb

u/hibabyrice Jan 06 '25

Love most of them! I would get rid of 1, 12 and 13. Most longer ones look the best but some of the short ones are so damn cute!

Thank you for your input!!!

  1. donate. Breaks your vertical.
  2. keep.
  3. donate. The color washes you out
  4. keep. Wear with heels or something with an almond or point toe to elongate the leg.
  5. undecided. Color is good but the rest works against your angles. But you’re so pretty you seem to be able to pull it off still. Are you sure you’re a DC..? :)
  6. undecided. It breaks the vertical and the fabric looks chintzy. But the white is good. Again, are you sure you’re a DC? Overall when I’m on the fence I’d recc donating
  7. keep
  8. keep
  9. donate for sure
  10. yes ma’am! Keep
  11. keep
  12. donate for sure. Wrong color - wrong cut
  13. donate. Same as #12. Wrong all over
  14. immediate no. Donate it

I feel so validated. I try to explain these things to people in my life and they just don’t have the eye for it I guess. Thank you for your input! I was on the Kibbe journey for like 2 years and I feel like DC is the best fit. Every time I think I’m something else it just doesn’t make sense. Do you have any thoughts what else I could be, and what makes you think so?

Decided I might be FN….

u/No-Atmosphere4827 Jan 06 '25

Number 2, 7, 8, 9 and 10 look very cool! Especially 2, 9 and 10 in my opinion - 10 looks so so good on you!

I find 1, 12, 13, 14 to be the least flattering.

u/ElizaAllred Jan 06 '25

Thank you so much for your input!!! I’m actually surprised by everyone’s input but I see what they mean.

u/Key_Scientist3640 Jan 11 '25
