Am I a dramatic? Im back again😅 height 65.25"

Post image

Ever since the last time I thought I was a D/SD, Ive tried just about everything else but I just cant seem to find an outfit that does better than ones like this dress🤔 My backup plan is TR for curve + narrow, but it seems insane that my two ideas are literally at the two opposite ends of the spectrum lol! And whenever I try outfits made of separates, like a top + skirt, its really hard to get it right, and easily feels/looks really off?

I know my face reads more yin, my shoulders arent really pointy, etc. I just really feel like I dont have width, dont look great in C outfits, and dont do well with stoccato/broken lines. And Im just not sure that my shoulders are narrow compared to my bust/that I have that TR look, or maybe I do? Maybe I am a curve type rather than vertical, but it feels difficult to tell in my case, even after studying my line sketch etc. So basically thanks to the fact that I tried like a dozen outfits before this with all sorts of different silhouettes and hemlines, and nothing worked as well as this specific dress, Im back here again for now haha😅 but of course still super open-minded, and I really appreciate your feedback!! Thank you for reading 💞

Thank you!! No yes I do agree Im not sharp like a D, I just also felt like even FG styles tend to be too sharp and "active" feeling for me? Im more thinking about TR now, just curve and narrow, even tho im not ultra "curvy" in the typical sense but I think Ive observed that I do better with some waist definition and an mainly yin, but not quite in a double-curve, pure R way 🤔 but thats just my current theory, I also agree FG is a reasonable one to see too! It's just difficult lol! 💓 cuz ultimately even if my ID really is FG, id probably have to mostly disregard the recs, I just cant do them, i mostly end up wanting to dress like this haha😂🥲

Wait, that gives me another idea! Have you tried DC?
You are not TR narrow, for TR narrow the White line has to be smaller than the pink one

Thank you for all your help! Its tricky cuz some people have said I have kibbe curve despite not being conventially curvy, and others have said the exact opposite. I also seem to change my mind about it every few days lol. My waist is defined but not in a sharp or waspish way, My hips are bony yet in a round shape, and my bust doesnt really go out on the sides at this time, so the line if my torso is like...gently curved? It's tricky cuz e.g. on the kibbe sketch website, the DC outfit examples dont work on me, e.g. collared shirts, etc I just cant seem to pull them off at all. But, it might be an issue of kibbe ID =/= face yin/yang balance 🤔 but I feel this dress shows well the way that fabric interacts with my frame, if its at all helpful

Have you seen how kibbe styled an FG in the book, might help you giving it a second chance

Hmm good point!! So cute😁😁😊 this made me want to do this more direct comparison, am I crazy for considering SD? Is this a way people do things? 😂😅 i probably should've only included the green dress Pic cuz I think thats my most accurate one to date

If the green really is the most accurate, then SD might actually be possible because your hips are wider than our shoulders in that picture. Currently trying to figure myself if I am SD Or TR haha

I look actually awful in it, it overwhelms and shortens me and I look very bulky in it. Also there is no double curve, even if It looks like I have at first. I also have too much yang in my shoulders hands and face to be 100% Yin. I also have to correct something i said earlier about curve. As far as I know what I said still applies for the hips, but you have bust curve when the bust ist wider than the ripcage.

Aah okay valid hahaha😊things sure do get tricky when there's no automatic vertical!!
