Goth gamine: *Wears black head to toe*. David Kibbe: That’s death for you! Goth gamine: … So… that’s a win? 💀🖤

As someone who's been on a style journey for about 3-4 years now I just want to give a HUGE recommendation to everyone else on a journey to learn about 12 Seasons colour and get draped by an expert analyst if at all possible!! I was draped as a Bright Winter by the inimitable Christine Scaman and it changed my whole life!! I love it because it's like getting your Kibbe ID from David himself - you find out and then that's it. Peace, clarity. I have NO DOUBT in my mind that my colours are correct and perfect, I will never need to question them again. It's a scientific process that you see happening right in front of your face so you will not be left with any doubt! A draping by an expert is not cheap, I'll admit, but I am lucky enough to live a few hours away from Christine and I signed up to be a draping model for one of her classes - I got my draping and fan absolutely free! There's always a way if you're motivated enough. You can probably educate yourself enough to narrow down to just 2-3 likely seasons too, or just down to your base Season (Summer, Winter, etc), and that alone will be leaps and bounds better for your wardrobe! I can't stress how much easier and more streamlined shopping and dressing is once I'm able to exclude 11/12ths of clothes in the shop to just the ones that will actually flatter me! It made choosing a cohesive personal palette a snap, I've never looked better or been so confident, and I LOVE my colours but I never would have thought to wear them if I'd still be on my own. Again, if it's at all possible for you just do it! It's by far the single most powerful thing I've done for my style.

I'm a goth flamboyant gamine and it always makes me giggle when I hear that I look best in bright colors 😂 I think it would be cool to see a "goth fashion for the body types" video! Probably not going to happen but just a funny thought 😊

Thank you for teaching great information! So many of the youtubers who talk about Kibbe focus on the 'vibe' instead of the actual information. For example, I'm soft natural and soooo many videos talk about really muted colours and monochromatic looks in very flowy clothing and you show how bright we can actually go. I've always intuitively been drawn to a mix of bright and natural colours which made me think I was soft gamine based on people's videos saying I had to wear toned down clothes for soft natural which is not what is in the book. Thank you again!

Soft natural - vibrant and rich Bright and pastels - base Soft neurals + vivid accenting Break up dark colours Use dark colours for accents or for colour combinations Bright and soft > stark contrasting combos Wild combos (bright bright) are good Monochromtic, head to toe dull - not good

I am redesigning my 2022 wardrobe with solid colors and splashing it up with scarves. Its the hidden secret 🤫 that your mother never told you about. Plus, its economical !

Just gonna leave a like before I even watch the video cause they are ALWAYS so helpful💗💗

This is why kibbe shouldn't be taken too seriously. I'm a pale olive and any bright or pastel colors make me look like a corpse. Cool for halloween but terrible anytime else. If I don't wear pure white or deep, rich jewel tones I just look ill

Video idea! How to bring in the sexy or sensual or flirty/feminine/girly nature of romantic, soft, or ingenue preferences when in contexts (such as serious workplace) where there are dress codes or need to be taken seriously enough. So to feel like our authentic style but not come across too sexy for the context.

Ooof…try being a True Winter Romantic working in corporate America: It’s like living life on hard mode.

I was prepared to disagree with this based on other color analysis, but as a TR, the recommendations are absolutely spot on. Kibbe may have gotten tired of relying on his book (understandable), but it still holds great insights.

Wow, all the knowledge you convey in these videos adds up over a while! When I first started understanding Kibbe through your videos I couldn't figure out where I fit. Now I not only know with certainty what my type is (Soft Classic) but I can tune in to the finer details when styling myself. For instance, I love rich dark colors but anything matte or heavy material looks blah on me. The tip about wearing dark colors that have a sheen or are a very soft fabric is a game changer. All the tips for Soft Classic are spot on. My wardrobe has never suited me better.

honestly i prefer to focus on my season color palette rather than kibbe's colors. maybe combining both can work pretty well but it makes more sense to me to look at my undertone, hair color and eye color

Thank you Aly for your fantastic work🦋

I feel that Kibbe's color recommendations are more from his use of types as an essence, as opposed to being related to a literal body shape/type. I have a soft gamine body with more of a soft classic essence, so his color recommendations for classic would be what I use.

Could you please do a video about which fashion eras suit which body types best? E.g I've always thought 1970s for Naturals, 1960s for Gamine etc.

Wedding dresses for the types!!

You do a great job Alyona, very well done.👌🏻💜

I'm a Romantic and it seems I've always gravitated towards wearing colours in a way which complements my yin balance best, although I do dip into the richer, shinier Theatrical Romantic colours when I want to look a bit more bold.

Aly, I want to thank you so much for this video! It has opened my eyes, finally! I have been trying to convince myself that all I need to wear is neutrals, monochromatic outfits, all has to be black or beige otherwise i won’t look good. But I have always liked colour and I like mixing and matching and finally I know that it has been right for me from the start! I won’t be restricting myself any more, it feels so good and liberating!

Love it! Next you can do best fabric for each body type!

Aly, You are always an inspiration and Your videos are huge help. Yes, color has an information, an energy attached to it. Of course, color does not determine style and style has no restrictions with a colour, but it is much easier to be Dramatic in strong, bold colors than in delicate, soft, muted colors.

So helpful, thank you xx

Ayyyyyy I LOVE THIS !!!!!!

As a Dramatic and Dark Winter agree on these. No pastels or light colours for me but dark smokey, muted neutrals yesss and contrasts, B&W all day everyday :)

I really really need this!!!!! Thank you

can you do a cold weather styling compilation for your body types?

I’ve loved all the pieces you choose for this video 😍. Even when I’m a FN I’m so fascinated by other styles you’re shiwing on this video.

Love this such great info! I’m torn between a being a petite soft classic, theatrical romantic and soft gamine. This was helpful as I see I’m natural drawn and look best in soft classic colors with TR shapes. ❤️

Hi Aly. Yes very interesting and educational.

I LOVE your videos they are so helpful

Thank you Aly, very interesting. As a Soft Natural I like all Natural lines and I play with it. As a Winter Type I dress often with a lot of contrasts, not so much as recommended for SN 🤔 I give it a try I think

Love this, thank you Aly! 🤍✨ I am a soft natural 🌸🎉🎉

Is funny and interesting how I already kind of knew this things (what looks good and what looks bad on me) but Kibee (and Aly) are the scientists who put all this info together and it makes a lot of sense!

thank you so much Aly

Dark Autumn Soft Classic here 🙌🏼

Hi Aly, very good Video!

Thank you again for your great content. Can you make a video explaining what Kibbe means by ”breaking all the rules”?

I love your glasses

Thank you Aly! My sister is a flamboyant gamine and I wish I was, too! It’s so edgy and fun. I think it’s my favourite! Can’t wait to show her this.

Hi Aly! Could you provide subtitles in Portuguese, please? I'm from Brazil and here I don't find professionals like you who approach this subject with such richness. Thank you!

Aly!!! Wedding dresses for each body type would be amazing and helpful ❤️

Please do a video of wedding dresses for the different types!

Notification squad!!! 💗

I am a deep autumn, theatrical romantic. I look best in deep and warm colours. Like olive, mustard, expresso, copper, burgundy, eggplant. Also black and cream. I have fair olive skin during winter and more golden olive skin during the summer.

I thought that as a Natural I should wear natural colors (brown,pastels,muted green etc) ...but now I find out that it looks boring on me😥 i love monochromes..and really don't like bright colors and patters😣 The more I know..

Thank you

I'm a TR, but I hate the recommended style so much!!! It doesn't fit my taste at all and it feels like a costume. I'll just keep doing what I like 🤷🏻‍♀️

My body type is the only one that Kibbe doesn't talk about: Ingenue. Could you talk about some of the details of that body type? Colors, patterns, silhouettes, etc.

The more I watch these videos, the more confused I get 🤦‍♀️ so, the best way is to see what style look good on me the most and that will be body type. Monochromatic suits me very well, so I guess I'm classic 😅

I had to watch the SN section twice because there was so much information packed into it. Yes, all of it makes sense to me and will inform my future choices.

I think it is one of the key element for classics. Since I'm not very contrasted, I feel like colours are really what makes me look off rather than the structure of the clothes.

Hi! Thanks a lot for your videos, they help a looot. Could you do a video on Helena Bonhan Carter style and body type? Thank you so much.

I'm a dramatic but feel like this doesn't apply to me since I have soft/muted coloring. Bold colors just make my face disappear in them and don't compliment me.

Something that I have notice to differentiate flamboyant gamines from theatrical romantics is that if they were Neon colors, TR can look a little overwhelmed, is not like it look bad, is just that in FG looks better or makes their irregular yang more noticeable.

Do a video about how the types look when they are underweight plsss

Round face total make over pls

Think you 😍

I was confused whether I was TR or SC (I wear TR make-up and it suits me), but I guess now I know I’m SC...blended/soft monochromatic looks and warm neutral colors look good on me. Black can look good, depending on the material, it needs to be a jet black and a soft or luxurious material. I also look good in white (not stark white, but ivory or cream), pastels (soft pinks, sea foam green, baby blue, lilac) and certain rich, jewel-tone colors (plum, maroon, green) look fantastic. But bright colors are usually ‘too much’ on me, I can’t wear tomato red, orange or mustard for example, even though they are recommended for my coloring. I also don’t look good in multicolor looks (or head to toe in one color rather than softly blended) and color blocking can look severe on me (too much color contrast), though black + ivory combo looks good. I guess I’m a Deep Autumn Soft Classic like Jessica Alba.

I am a soft gamine, and even before I knew my body type, I tended to sway toward colors and patterns you mentioned.

I'm so grateful for your videos... I have donated half of my clothes since then and I feel much much better now that I know how to dress up a flamboyant gamine :D

Love red on you

I'm a soft classic and I love monochromes for me!

Good vid

Awesome

I'm soft classic and I usually wear black, red, gray, white, and earth tones 😀

Me, a FG, that prefers wearing neutrals: 👁👄👁

So that s why I look bleah every time I wear contrast, I m a classic and it is not enough to pay attention to cut and style of clothes, but also color😮 We would like more info in this topic please

Just found out I’m a romantic body type and I got smacked in the face by that “might not look their best in monochromatic color schemes”

Olá Aly! Tudo bem? Seria possível você disponibilizar legendas em português? Sou do Brasil e não entendo muito o inglês! Obrigada!!!

Do any other soft gamines hate wearing bright colours cause they feel like it makes them look younger and more child like?

Me, a summer SD with low-contrast: instructions unclear, will stick to all grey outfits

I like the indicated pictures but what each category is should be explained otherwise is just confusing

im romantic but love neon contrast and mixes like ..Gammines !

Can you do how to do curls on each body type?

I am still not sure how to find out what I am.

How do you find your body type if you were born 'compact?' Short neck, short waist, etc

Zendaya would be a great example for the kibbe test as well

I’m a soft autumn who is a soft natural who loves dark chomo colors 😩😩

Well what if I'm a romantic with a clear+2 complexion (aka pale skin and dark hair) do i go for clear bold colors or softer romantic ones? Please answer me Aly

Hey Aly! 👋 I'm a DC with SD face and I'm a medium/dark summer. What's best for me?

I need advice on where to shop… I’m at a weird point (38). Post forever 21 and ModCloth at this point, but can’t afford to buy designer. I would like to go more vintage and colorful, as a romantic. Help!

This doesn't work with seasonal color analysis.

Thanks Aly! So, as a SD Summer, doing bright + dark is not exactly that easy. I read somewhere that that system says SD are winter types, which is ridiculous. Do you have any suggestions for SD summers - coloring and styling? Thank you.

Me a SC who loves grunge goth and all dark :')

Why I look bad in black if Im a high contrast :( is because im TR? Idk but i look tired white looks better on me

Idk how to figure out what body type I have I e done the quizzes a million times but doesn’t seem right I have a lot of romantic type answers but have broad shoulders and bony bones lol idk

I think I don’t have a Kibbe type because I look bad in every type of line and color lol

can anybody link the photo on 2:26 or at least read the title of the top right corner color scheme? Please

I am a FN with a dark autumn color palette. As most of the colors are blackened, suggestions on how to come off as bold and vivid?

Could you do a video on personal color? I can't tell if I'm Dark Autumn or Deep winter.

What if your season; your hair color, eye, and skin color, clash with your type? For example I'm a fg but when categorizing my face using the seasons I'm a soft autumn which totally contrasts with FG since they are not supposed to use neautral colors. Maybe just stick to soft autumn makeup and colors near face?

👍👍👍👍

❤❤❤❤❤❤

What if your color season and body type do not match regarding the recommendations? for example, I am a SD but also a soft summer (color season), what works best for people like me?

Can you create an interesting monochromatic outfit if you are a flamboyant gamine?
