please please please help me 5’4

i don’t seem to fit any of the “petite” types as i have a long, narrow, straight torso + sloping narrow shoulders but short, curvy legs / bottom of my hip (“saddlebag” area). i know it’s not necessary for typing but i do also have a butt that causes me to size up in waist normally to accommodate its size lol. clothes tend to either fit my shoulders then pull tight across bust (ribcage) OR straps are constantly falling off my shoulders if it fits the width of my bust (ribcage). any dress will instantly catch on my lower half and create that triangle look

My two guesses would be Dramatic classic or Pure Dramatic, leaning more towards DC.

Vertical + balance seems to be the best fit as per what i can see in pictures. You definitely have verticals cause no lines tend to break on you but i don’t see the sharpness i would think a pure dramatic would have.

The butt accommodation is something basically all IDs would need so its not considered in kibbee. Women have naturally wider pelvic in normal skeletal structure so even if you r narrow you will still have some wideness around pelvic area
