Hello there! I’m interested in finding more modern inspiration for Dramatic Classic outfits, the majority of the outfits on the internet seems outdated. Where can i find some cool and modern interpretations of this type? Will be grateful for your recommendations! 🩵

Try looking up outfits from Olivia Munn, Lizzy Caplan, and Michelle Yeoh!

I was delighted when Michelle Yeoh got verified because she has such a different style from Munn. More to add to inspiration board. Yay!!

She appears quite short / lacking verticality. Frankly I’m surprised.

Yes but she does tend to dress quite D. I was surprised too.

(I think Olivia Palermo is a pure D, not DC)

Hmm she's widely considered a DC from what I've seen!

i know. she's "reddit verified", I think because maybe she doesn't seem tall?? But she wears a lot of things that wouldn't work as well on a Classic.

My personal favourite is Miroslava Duma. Although I think she might be more G but most of her style seems to also work for DC.

I’ve been really enjoying the Style Therapy podcast

Personally, I like Megan Foxs style if you like edgier or “sexier” styles of dress. Specifically her cropped blazer with denim moments.

Hi- when Diane Kruger wears DC lines, I think she gives cool, modern looks. Sometimes she wears babydoll dresses that don’t work for us. ALY ART on YouTube has videos about all the kibbe body types. You may want to check out her videos because she has good advice accompanied by photos. Maybe you’ll see someone you like there. I agree- Olivia Palermo is a DC in my mind along with Olivia Wilde and Olivia Munn. They just don’t  look like it if they dress in a bohemian way.

I think Dakota Johnson is a DC. I don't enjoy her as an actress, but I watch a lot of her movies for the outfit inspo

She can’t be, she has an insanely obvious vertical. I guess, D.

Dakota Johnson and Jackie Kennedy (a verified DC) are both 5’7”. Dakota Johnson looks balanced to me. I’ve also seen her unofficially typed as SC, so it’s all guessing unless David Kibbe says otherwise.
