I went there. Menswear Outfits for ALL the KIBBE body types {androgynous fashion} 

Your channel is so brutally underrated. You have such fantastic understanding of both Kibbe and style, what a pleasure to watch every time! 😊

soft natural menswear: be ✍️a✍️pirate✍️ :D

I think Romantics struggle so much, not only to shop menswear-inspired styles, but even the more gender-neutral fashions that have been popular in womenswear these past couple of decades. There are a couple of companies catering to trans or nonbinary people with curvier bodies looking for more menswear-inspired styles, but R and TR types in general have SUCH a hard time finding items that fit and flatter. I like the looks you came up with for TR and R, but I think they might look off on someone with a lot of yin unless there was a LOT of tailoring involved.

one way to gain inspo for menswear and kibbe-appropriate fashion could also be to identify male celebrities with your ID and analyze what they're doing with their style + how it works. for example, soft gamines can look towards daniel radcliffe, elijah wood, fred astaire, bruno mars, gerard way, etc... i know jimin from BTS is typed as a romantic. the point is: male celebrities have kibbe IDs too! investigate that! also you're so funny 😭 i loved that kill bill intro LMAO your deep love for fashion really shines here! this is a really good intro for everyone wanting to explore this side of fashion. thank you for making this video 💗

hate hate hate being told I have to wear body con and soft drapy stuff to look good when that's my least favorite like I want to be sort of androgynous but it's so hard to figure out. thank you so much!!

Madonna had a great menswear phase. Romantics could get inspiration from her.

I'm 5'8" SD I'm totally living for sd outfit 2 and I feel you with trousers being too darn short! !! Gamine lines are so fun. Love the inspiration and humour!!

I’m a romantic and I am so mad I can’t wear menswear very easily- I loveee it, but I end up looking like a slob - the best I get is a big button down as a dress with a belt to cinch the waist so thanks for this.

Not only great fashion insight, but also a very well made video! I am so impressed by your ability to communicate complex concepts so clearly without filler words (“ums”) or several video cuts to piece together a thought. Goals, honestly!

I like the current ratio of kibbe videos to non kibbe videos. Also, I really like the way you interweave cinema in a fun way with your work. Thank you for sharing, and I am excited for more content next week!

I really appreciate your talking about the two schools of thought (dressing with your lines or "against them" as rebellion). I'm an nb soft dramatic who has had top surgery which obviously impacted my lines somewhat. I'm new to the kibbe community, but I've noticed some strictness and haven't seen someone talk about the merits of dressing against one's lines for a personal style purpose. this gives me the confidence to go with my gut instinct, which was to borrow some from FN to align more with my gender identity, while considering a lot of the SD recs (soft fabrics, t shape, etc.)

This video is totally up my alley! I’m trans non-binary & don’t dress in a “conventionally attractive” way, but I still like applying Kibbe principles to my outfits. I find that dressing androgynous is really seamless as a Flamboyant Gamin bc line breaking doesn’t have to reference any particular gender. One thing I like to do as someone that accommodates petite is to go into the women’s section of the thrift store and look for menswear-looking clothing (like button ups & trousers) bc you’ll find “masc” pieces that actually fit your proportions!

Hi! I’ve recently gotten into the university, and I was lost in my personal styles because honestly, I’ve been wearing same hoodie and baggie pants through the entire senior year. My mom and friends told me that I should buy some new clothes and start to dress like an ^adult^, so I googled about these themes, and I found you. You’re such a inspiring person and I really love your confidence and spunky attitude. As many people said, your channel and website is seriously underrated! I’ve been wandering a lot of fashion websites, and no other websites are better than yours. Your paraphrasing ability is absolutely fabulous, and your editing skills are on the top! After reading your posts, I’ve verified myself as a Soft Classic, Cool Winter, and Classic Essence with a little bit of Dramatic essence. Now I know what clothes to buy, and I’m not afraid to go shopping anymore. Please keep up the good work! Thanks for guiding my personal style journey ❤

I’m fascinated by the topic you brought up about wearing menswear to go against your Kibbe ID. I would love if you made a video exploring why some people intentionally seek out antagonistic lines (after going through the efforts of finding their IDs). What effects could be best created going against the recommendations for the types without looking disheveled? How do types create an alternative/juxtaposed look? How does each type create a “put together” edgy or dissonant outfit? Really loved this video and appreciate the thought that went into its creation!

lol@ the NOOOO when you started twerking. Let that weird hang out, it's what makes this channel refreshing and relatable. Sometimes fashion channels take themselves WAY too seriously.

This was hilarious and informative. I love your sense of humor and how well crafted your videos are. Both are fabulous!

Was hoping for a more androgynous look for TRs, but the other outfits still gave me ideas that I think I can adapt to have that more masculine vibe to it! Great video 🖤🖤

Love the kibbe content. This was the first time I've watched one of your videos and it was so nice to see you animated. Loved this.

Thank you. I have never owned a suit, but seeing the first DC look made me realise I might look ok in one. But I would want something quirky like sea green to suit my version of ethereal essence. 🙂

I'm in love with that dramatic classic suit - and it looks amazing on you! This was such a fun video. I got put off by kibbe in the past because all the rules seemed to stifle some of the fun and creativity I like to have with clothes. However, when I watch your videos, I'm always left so inspired to play around with clothes while using kibbe as a tool 💕

Thank you Queen. I needed this. Trying to experiment more with my fashion so I’ll be going through the other playlists after this video. They don’t really cover these things on men’s fashion channels so I’ve been delving into this side of RU-vid and have been thoroughly impressed.

Thank you for this!!! I'm always confused about my ID, torn between SC and SG, but seeing that menswear inspired outfit on SG convinces me that I am one because cropped blazers are literally part of my daily uniform 😂

Your content is so good and the scene at the start was so funny, you really put effort on your videos and its pleasing to watch bc you look like you really love what youre doing. Also I looove the idea of X style for all types, it is SO helpful especially to reinforce that any id can wear any style

Thanks for briefing us on the history. It made this video so much more interesting and easier to connect the dots when it comes to influential fashion, culture and history 😁 and I love the KILL BILL references. It was funny and lightened my mood! I appreciate the effort😄🥰

i LOVE this video! my body is on the curvier side and i think i fall into the SN category (SG, TR, and R have also been IDs i’ve considered). my body and face shape have always made me look pretty femme regardless of how i dress- i could be wearing clothes from the men’s section head-to-toe and i’d still be read as being on the femme side of things. i also hate how a lot of menswear looks fall on me because of my hips! it’s amazing to see menswear inspired looks that aren’t meant for people with narrow hips or thin dramatics. i definitely want to see more videos on incorporating menswear inspired looks into your wardrobe for folks with various body shapes!

I’m a recent subscriber, and I would love to see more videos like this!! I know I’m not the only one when I say I get tired of the ways Kibbe IDs get boxed into just o n e style (like Romantics can’t have a boho sense of style, or Gamines can’t have a traditional style of dress, etc). I know you’ve probably got ideas for videos in the works anyway, but if at all possible I think that would be a cool series to show that you really can wear whatever look you want *and* take Kibbe guidelines into consideration!

Thank you for this!!! I'm a dramatic classic that presents androgynously so this is amazing

Thank you! My project of the last couple years has been to refine my wardrobe and make it more cohesive. The kibbe system is an interesting tool, but as someone who likes to dress in alt fashion, I find a lot of the style guides for kibbe are pretty hum drum. I don't think I need a specific [insert alt-fashion] kibbe style guide for every style. By removing some of the gendered wording around the style recommendation and talking about why and how we achieve lines and sillhouettes is much more useful and can be applied to a broader range of styles.

Love this video! Your menswear collection and editing skills are goals.

I love how informative all your videos are🧚‍♀️, helped me find my essence AND kibbie id, thank uu so much😘👑

Looking for boy's clothes is Genius actually Thank You !!!!

I'm so glad you made this video! It's the only one I can find!

We LOVE you for going there!!

You look so amazing in SD lines!!! Maybe it is the mix of your essences, but I love it!!!

@ 9:14, 😂😂. Chock full of info for one of my favorite fashion looks, menswear. As a SN I didn’t really know how, and now I do. Thanks Gabrielle 💕. So, when I got to the TR outfit #2, I thought it would work well for a SN, but with less sharp lines in the top. I love that look!

QUEEN! im obsessed with your videos now

I've been trying to pull together more looks for myself (I think I'm a SD as a 5'9" gal with curves) and I love the things you grab in this and other looks. Thank you for all that you do

living for the history lesson and the looks , thoughtful discourse and editing ;this was such a fun video thanks for making it

I find your stuff really interesting! I'm a very short (4'10"), pretty fat (205lbs, size 20-22 jeans) person, and my gender, while I was assigned female at birth, is best described as "I don't know, whatever Led Zeppelin was doing in the 70s I guess," so modern fashion is...difficult...for me. Would you be interested in doing something for someone like me, whose concerns outside of Kibbe/Kitchener can sometimes create not-insignificant gender dysphoria when paired with the gendered vibes of the yin/yang dichotomy all of these systems are based on? I'm reasonably sure I'm a Kibbe romantic with a Kitchener natural/ingenue/gamine blend, and I can't stand anything too Little Girl or Femme Fatale; the femininity I enjoy is what looks androgynous/femme on 70s rockstars, and essentially whatever Gerard Way is currently doing. I'd also love to actually hire you for a personal consultation but I don't want to be Weird About It.

I just found you, and I love your content! Good luck, keep going!🙌

Also I really love your videos and they help me out a lot!!!

I love the outfits for both Dramatic (it me) and Soft Dramatic here; as someone who has adored menswear looks for years, this is fantastic. My favorite eras for menswear: The 1920s, the 1930s, the 1940s, and (some of) the 1950s. Again, thank you!

The moment you put on that oversized blazer you just ✨shine ✨

Ok, I changed my mind. You are flamboyand natural. It rocks.

Thanks! I just found your channel and overall enjoy it! I would love to see the opposite video of making ultra-feminine fashion work for every type. I, for example, am a self-quizzed SC who is ok with this, but I usualy look for the softer side of the type and I'm often drawn to SG and R styles, so for me there is a difference, and I'm sure there are D/N who likes to wear feminine clothes and struggle.

YESSSSSSSS LOVES IT

Fabulous Job!

Great video, loved the head to toe list at the end! And I actually had a dream/nightmare one night with too much kibbe in my brain too!

Flamboyant Natural is so good on you, and I am not biased as it is so far from my personal style or from anything I would covet or long to be able to pull off. But it looks so bizarrely perfect and more than that, it makes YOU look good which is the point.

Absolutely love the intro. Just had to pause to say that.

Oooo I clicked o get thank you for this video ❤😁

The second R outfit reminds me of young Leo dicaprio who is also a R so it was great for us 🤧🥰

hi you're amaziing you've helped me so much especially to restyle the clothes I already owned :)). i would really love to see a video on dramatic essence

your fashion history lesson in the beginning was amazing! i care more about fashion history than the concept of clothes being “flattering”. i find that a lot of people who are into kibbe use the word “flattering” as if it’s a factual, objective term, rather than something that’s shaped by ever-changing cultural beauty ideals. queer culture exists and -shocker- a lot of people find masculine women to be extremely attractive

Thank you for this video !! I am pretty sure I am a romantic but I am also non-binary and having a body type that leans so much towards yin makes me dysphoric. All my life I craved to look more androgynous but it's a struggle to find ideas. So I think this video will help me so muuuuuch ♡♡♡

SD #1 love it so much

Interesting. In a reply to another comment of mine, you said my outfit sounded like dramatic, romantic and gamine.. and what do you know? Those are the ones I like here best and also have worn... but I'm a SN and the "safari" one is another in my closet! You're good at this 😉💙

I feel like you look good in all these outfits.

Thank you for this! Please do a video on the dramatic essence.

these videos need to play in stores lol

You look good in all the kibbe IDs

Hahaha. I'm a Romantic and that's exactly exactly what came to my mind!

The kibbe nightmare - yep it’s a thing - a reoccurring thing.

Love your humour xoxox

Hi Gabreille. I wasn't intending to watch this video because menswear and androgynous is not my style. However I enjoy all your videos. I must admit that I was totally surprised. I am a Theoretical Romantic and I already dress like that. What a total surprise - the joke is on me, ha ha!! I also enjoy the fashion history that you refer to. Yes, I am interested in more Kibbe videos, especially Theatrical Romantic ones. Also what about Dressing Your Truth and the John Kitchener style essence types. Also interesting is Style By Rita. She has a system on essences which is also educational. Great video and I'm glad I clicked on it.

Heyy Gabrielle, can u make a video similar to this but in a sporty look version. Because my body type is romantic (pure) I often feel misfit with a sportswear look. but I like to look sporty

I don't know why, but you remind me of Natalie of Contrapoints. *how I'd love a collab with you both* 😍

Well done👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽. Question, do you think the top you are wearing with white pants in the clips where you sit and explain would work for TR?

Yay! As a lil nonbinary AFAB person, I appreciate this very much!

Is it just me or do the Soft Natural styling lines look super unflattering and dowdy 😢. In the jeans video too. This SN just can’t with mom jeans or gathered pants…makes the belly area look like a round ball and we already have a lot of width. I totally respect and appreciate Gabrielle’s videos and I get that she’s trying to makes a point. I’d love to see some other options. Okay - a week and 9678 photos later I have to concede - mom jeans DO look best. AHHH!!!!! Gabrielle is genius. Lesson: throw out your biases and at least try the recommendations 😮 When I look at my photos as objectively as I can, I don’t see dowdy, I see a better look. Maybe they just looked the way in the vid because they’re not her lines???

I’m gonna need the link to the suit you wore for soft classic 💳💥💳💥

I keep wondering how rollers would work for your hair! Try them out!

Damn those FN and SD looks are fire, but the first FN look>everything

Personally, a never found the double-breasted jackets to be very flattering as SC, no matter what fabric they are in. I tend to avoid them altogether. Single-breasted jackets with a higher collar tend to look better. I'd love to know if any other SC have had the same experience or is it just a me thing?

Now I just want to know how to dress so that people cannot perceive my gender- not in such a way so I look like a woman in menswear inspired looks.

Hey! How can I find my ID and eccense new to your channel love what your doing !

Omg where is that white dramatic romantic two price suit outfit from???

We’re can I please cut that off the shoulder blazer pls

are there links to wear you can buy the clothes in the video ?

Hi, So today I was talking about Kibbe system to my brother because it is a revolution for me. But I was so confused when I saw him having the same interest as me and I didn't know what to say for men body... Is kibbe ID is only for women bodies ?

I think I'm a SG but I always feel so ugly on puff sleeves outfits. I loved SG look 2, but I feel like I could never pull out the soft puff sleeves of look 1 :( I wonder if any other SG feels it too

Thank you! I've been wanting to see more androgyny and female "menswear" and "men's" fashion ideas so this was helpful. And if you made a version of this video about the Kitchener essences I'd be thrilled! Also I found every outfit in this video looked beautiful and there was a playful quality throughout too.

"Mar-lay-nuh" Dietrich, not Marlene. Great video, as always.

Living for you 😩 how tall are you?

can I be 50% soft dramatic and 50% flamboyant natural? I feel like I everytime I dress in those types of silhouettes it always looks good

10:35 for the gamines

Memo to me: 11:51

More kibbe videos LOL then again I want you to still be able to sleep well.

It's not that I want to integrate menswear-like clothing. Is that I want 10 slightly fitted regular length black jeans, 15 non-iron shirts, a few differents tops to allow a bit of variety. As well as vests and ties for when I need to be more formal and dress everyday the same, like a cartoon character.

Ok, so I'm a soft classic and i hate literally everything about my body type. I came to this video hoping to find some way of playing into an agender look but unsurprisingly all i got was 1950's woman. I'm really starting to resent my body type. It just seems to Pidgeon hole me into the most bland feminine looks which is literally the opposite of who i am. On top of that I'm a deep autumn so I cant even play with colours because the only things that look good on me are rich darks. I'm so painfully bored by everything i find out about my ID. but I look AWFUL in anything outside these parameters.

So….corsets and stays before generally did not hinder movement….they basically functioned as bras and were supposed to be comfortable. Think of the vast majority of poor women who did all kinds of manual labor (from farming to housework). All of them wore corsets…

Androgynous is 2 Greek words, not Latin. Just saying

Menswear for Angelic...don't even know where to start. A white blazer...?

Androgyne comes from ancient greek

Can we stop it with the misogynist idea that menswear is androgynous? Menswear is masculine. Androgynous is neither masculine nor feminine. Unless a man wearing menswear is also androgynous (which I think we can all agree it isn't), then a woman wearing menswear isn't androgynous, either.

"I am a female", yes but, are you a naturally born female?
