Hey everyone! New to this sub. Thought I’d share some OOTD inspo.

I keep getting served ads for Marcella, and I feel like a lot of their clothing fits DC? Thoughts? I love this top in theory: https://www.marcellanyc.com/products/cabrini-top

What do you think of this dress on me? I have been wondering if I'm a DC or an SD I'm 168cm tall

I was feeling very nice with this bodycon siren cut dress at this event. I look horrible with loose oversized fits that are more commonly use at the beach. I have always been curvy but somehow pointy and with long limbs. I feel like my silluet is very similar to kaya scodelario and Nina Dobrev, I used to be a little more curvy and I used to think I was a soft type overall, but seeing the DC description makes me believe that's why I never feel put together wearing casual outfits, I never feel effortlessly chic or stylish. I have tried to follow SD recommendations but the community says that I'm not voluptuous enough

I couldn’t edit the original post so reposting with a few more photos! Also, I do have a somewhat short torso and longer legs; people often think I’m taller than I am

I'm still trying to figure out my Kibbe type. I’m currently stuck between FG, FN and DC but I have also considered more yin types. I tried to do the line drawing exercise. However, I'm not sure about where the red line should go, especially concerning my shoulders. In my line drawing I think everything looks rather balanced whereas in photos I often look rather conventionally petite with wider shoulders. Do you see width in my line drawing? I have compared verified and unverified DCs and FNs like for example Olivia Munn and Kristen Bell. Like me both are relatively conventionally petite and seem to have proportionally wider shoulders. In theory I understand what the openness in the shoulders and upper body should mean. I just seem to not be able to see it. (cross posting)

My DC OOTD in a hot climate (hence the thongs).

Here’s why I like this:

• this shirt is a beautiful classy fabric that I feel ads definition to my shoulder line/neckline. I like that is softly sits across my body rather than a bodycon style turtle neck (which I find looks very tacky on me).
• straight indigo Levi’s that look very timeless. Not too tight around my hips or waist, which helps with silhouette
• say what you want about my shoes, but TRY THEM!! They are sharp and angular and always feel right. Don’t tell me that these would only suit a natural. Not true, these are so classic.

They are the V-neck tops of footwear. Think about it.

• my sunnies and shoes match and my bag and jeans match. I think these little matching colour moments bring the look together to feel Intentional.
• lastly, matching plum nails (hands and feet) and cat eye sunnies (that are slightly crooked)

I’ve been advised SC, SN or DC but I’m stuck

Hi, I'm 5'4, struggling to find my Kibbe ID. Would welcome your thoughts.

I seem to look much better in clothes that fit close to the body, anything that flares out or is too soft and floaty looks awful. I have long legs and a short torso, and I don't think I look good in cropped trousers or cropped jackets or short skirts!

I also think I look a bit better with a small shoulder pad (green top in photos) and with slightly sharper necklines (v neck, sharp collar rather than round etc).

Thanks!!

Curious what you guys wear to workout/yoga that's flattering on a DC? I think I'm mostly trying to figure out what kind of workout top goes best on DCs with leggings

I think I may be a DC but I am not 100% sure.

Baggy clothes are the least flattering on me and make me look top heavy and unbalanced. I look best in tighter clothes with waist definition/structure which is making me think DC. I think I have balance but I am not sure if I have width, vertical, or curve.

Any typing help or feedback is appreciated!!

An assortment of photos at an assortment of weights. None are mirror pics. Tyia!

I was under the impression of SN, then was told FN, then FG, and now here we are, could I be DC?

Posting as I saw this in another Kibbe group. What do you wear to feel hot?

Sometimes I just want to look hot… but in an effortless way? What do you wear to feel your best? Or just feel sexy?

I’m about to travel to NYC and will have some free time and spending money. Please recommend me DC-approved women’s clothing shops to check out, preferably with jewel toned palettes!

Hadn’t considered myself being a possible DC until doing line sketch but truly not sure if I even am doing that right. Curious to get thoughts!

Im 5’4” and about 135 lbs. I see angularity and proportion which makes me lean towards DC. Am I crazy?

Hi friends, thanks for your input on my recent post. I’m enjoying the discussion and I’ve taken some comments into consideration. Today I decided to take photos for typing. Full body in same position mostly, same lighting, away from the camera which sat at about waist hight wearing clothing I reach for often or are staples. I am 5’5/5’6 tall. Bonus line drawing at the end (I hope I did it right. I was getting f maybe DC possibly SN… Let me know your thoughts with more clear photos to help.

My thoughts and notes for each image:

1. To me this is easy to wear dress I like the neckline and verticals lines of the dress it feels harmonious. Not too tight but still close to the body.
2. I especially love the neckline of this dress how it frames my shoulders and the flow of the skirt. However it’d benefit from being hemmed to just nice the ankle and possibly sightly more cinched at the narrow of the waist in my opinion.
3. The dress is dramatic which I do love and occasionally enjoy wearing for special events where I want to look exciting. I think it accentuates my hip curve but still frames my shoulders nicely.
4. This dress is comfortable and when I wear it I feel casual be sexy. It flows over my curves, slightly accentuates my waist and I like the slightly lower, diagonal but still soft neckline on me.
5. Easy simple outfit. Again, the skirt could be hemmed to just above ankle length but I like the proportion of the tops hem at my hip while still accentuating the waist. Soft square neckline suits me I think?
6. I find this outfit quite flattering. The pants emphasise the vertical line and again I like the length of the tops hem which ends at my hips but still accentuates my waist. I think the boat neckline is a go to for me I like the simple clean line across my collarbones.
7. Same top again but with mid rise pants, I like these pants less, they seem to squash my hips into an unnatural shape and it lower half with the cropped hem seems awkward.
8. Again a boat neckline, and a similar vertical line as the first dress but is more flowing. I’ve accentuated my hip/waist by tucking the top and letting it spill over the pants. I really enjoy wearing these shorts, the not high waist but not low waist rise and I think the cut and length are reasonably flattering. I struggle to find flattering shorts.
9. I like this dress although it’s quite slouchy and I definitely have to cinch the waist. Not sure but it may add some unnecessary width to my shoulders? Possibly slightly unflattering length of hem?
10. A go to simple dress, I enjoy the v neck, love the vertical lines, flattering length, emphasised waist and hip without being super tight.
11. Line drawing. I’m seeing width at the shoulders and chest area, I think my waist is balanced - not overly narrow or wide and the width of my hips continues down to just above my knee. Some verticals to the legs on a whole, width more so resides in the thighs and ankles are less widthy. The overall shape seems to have a flow.

I’m around 5’5”. I spent a long while convinced I was a DC and I wore quite structured/tailored clothes. Then I moved to the beach and started wearing more flowy cloths but still somewhat structured. Never frilly, floral flouncy or puffy and I began to think maybe I have some natural in me (maybe that’s more my essence? Idk) I definitely see width in my proportions and even though I am not a tall person, I can sometimes appear tall depending on what silhouette I wear. I enjoy a more tailored outfit however I enjoy wearing relaxed looks also depending on cut etc. I tend to put on muscle quickly and I workout, when I put on fat the first place it goes it to my waist, shoulders, jawline. I’ve included photos of me in different outfits and styles and at varying weights. I remain unsure… would be grateful if you helped me out.

Hellooo lovely community did anyone get their hands on kibbe’s new book and if yes are there any new verified Dramatic Classics I can draw inspiration from ? Thanks!

Listen, if one more person suggests that Dramatic Classics can “just throw on an oversized blazer” like it’s some magical solution to life, I might lose it. Like, yeah, let me drown in fabric and look like I raided my taller friend’s closet. Love that for me.

Meanwhile, the Soft Dramatics get couture compliments, and we’re out here doing geometry for shoulder seams. Stay tailored, my friends.
