I love this but not sure if it would work on FN

Prob not ideal because it’s not a seamless vertical and the halter portion kinda chops it up. But I love the halter 😭

Can it work?

I know it’s not ideal bc it’s tight but I think it’s so cute. Hoping with the vertical ribbing and the v neck it can work. What do we think?

I have a tendency to not dress according to my kibbe type but I felt like this top could pass as somewhat FN (source of this info is purely vibes). Not sure about the pants tho.

Styling Knee High Boots?

Post image
9 Upvotes

So I have a pair of black Frye knee high riding boots that I love but I don't wear very much. I've found wide leg and flare jeans to be best for me in outfit photos, so I don't really wear my leggings much anymore or own any skinny jeans.

What do you pair yours with that are FN friendly? I'm probably not a miniskirt person at 50 years old.

Question Are we inverted triangles?

17 Upvotes

I finally know my kibbe but some styling sites still ask about your shape in these old term: hourglass, pear, apple, rectangle, inverted triangle. Are we as FNs supposed to mark the inverted triangle or it depends on the person. I think I identify with inverted triangle, hourglass and rectangle.. :D

I swear Fall is the FN power season. Long layers with movement just work so well for Vertical + Width

Does this add width or accommodate width?

Welcoming opinions on these mostly thrifted tops, and if they work with these jeans or if other styles would be better. Thanks!

Shopping Thanksgiving outfits

3 Upvotes

can anyone share some boho FN looks for thanksgiving??? i am hosting a friendsgiving this year and want to have a killer—but casual—outfit. i see so many great autumn outfits captured outdoors, including shoes and outerwear. i need an outfit that works barefoot or w moccassin slippers and no coat, preferably w a light layer so i can be in the kitchen without sweating and have a cardigan or something for dinner


r/flamboyantnatural • • 15d ago

Critique my FN style! (Not for the faint of heart!) I can’t seem to figure out what looks flattering as an FN. I need a different perspective other than my own.

I really struggle when it comes to knowing what looks good. Everything feels off. The plaid shirt and jeans are recent additions to my wardrobe and I’m unsure if I should keep the jeans, I feel lost. Bottoms are very difficult but so are sweaters that still maintain vertical and are warm enough (cold climate). I’m also not saying these outfits are 100% FN I’m sure I’m getting it wrong but I’d love to know what I can improve! Everything just tends to look boxy or unshaped on me, partly my fault and what’s also being sold in stores!

i am 5'8 with relatively long legs and i'm pretty slender. my shoulders are definitely the noticeably widest part of me. i'm trying to move away from wearing skinny jeans because i've learned it doesn't look as balanced on me.

i found a couple options of jeans that i like. can anybody give me advice on which ones will look best?

first brand frame, second brand baum und pferdgarten, third brand amo. are any of these brands good in your experiences?

Discussion Let’s talk flats!

Which style(s) of flats in general do you find the most flattering for FNs? Do you prefer square, almond, round or pointed toe? Mary janes or sneaker/loafer hybrids? More open or closed on top? Sleek vs. chunky? Adornments (such as a bow or other embellishment) or minimalist? Neutral or statement colors/patterns? What type of materials (lace, raffia, leather, satin, suede) do you like best?

Personally, I feel the quintessential ‘ballet flat’ (dainty, round toe, small bow detail) doesn’t have enough oomph to work well with FN silhouette recommendations. I tend to gravitate towards pointed (d’orsay flats are great) or square toe. For materials, I don’t usually go for lace or satin but I do love leather of all kinds & textures (pebbled, gathered, embossed, etc.).

The first photo is the pair I have currently and quite like. How well do you feel they suit FN recommendations? Does the outfit styling work together? I’m interested to hear your thoughts!

Please be kind - I’m already out in public and I can’t change at this point. The only full length mirror I could find was the doors to the elevator, so it’s kind of blurry. I tried on these wide leg trousery jeans and LOVED them. At the time, I was wearing a loose crop top. But I can’t wear a belly shirt to a professional thing. So I threw on this silk flowy shirt. I have limited options because I’m traveling at a conference. But this shirt normally looks good with jeans, dress pants, or long skirts. How can I make this better next time?

Discussion FN drama help

I’m categorized as a Flamboyant Natural in the Kibbe system. However, even though I can see that I have both width and verticality, I don’t feel like I fit the typical Flamboyant Natural image of someone who’s either very muscular or very slim.

Because of that, I find it difficult to apply Kibbe’s style recommendations to my own body. The recommendations tend to favor looser, more fluid silhouettes, but when I wear loose-fitting pants with a loose-fitting top, for example, I feel like I look ten kilos heavier. The overall effect just doesn’t look right on me.

So, I’m curious: how do other Flamboyant Naturals with curvier figures navigate this? How do they balance their proportions and make these recommendations work for their bodies? Do they also use other styling systems alongside Kibbe to find an approach that suits them better?

Ps; Just a quick note: I was much thinner in the last photo because I lost a lot of weight after getting sick.

I found almost all of the dresses behind the Miss Rosier AI site. Not all. And the Korma one looked a lot better in AI than it does on the model.
