I've been enjoying learning about this system, and your videos are well done. As I understand it, in addition to Theatrical Romantics having petiteness, double curve, and delicate sharpness Kibbe also said they have a "narrow hourglass" shape and a "waspish waist" (which is probably why people tend to lead with ideas about curvaceousness in TRs). Therefore, as with the other types, even though each person is unique, I find that looking for the many elements that they have in common in order to fit the TR category helpful in understanding this ID.
Thanks for the video. I’ve been trying to decipher my kibble type for 4 years and your video presents just the right balance of information to make things make sense (a lot of other kibble content creators get far too technical, in my opinion). So thank you for sharing a more realistic point of view with diverse examples. I’ve gone back and forth between dramatic (though I’m not stringy enough), soft dramatic (though I’m not curvy enough), dramatic classic (though I’m perhaps slightly too elongated), and finally I think I might be a flamboyant natural (though I’ve never considered myself to be muscular, but perhaps that’s a misconception on my part because I’ve never actually attempted to be muscular).
This video and the previous one were very well done. The celebrity photos were very helpful to me. BTW one celebrity that Kibbe has moved from Soft Natural to Flamboyant Natural is Jane Fonda, as he has stated that she has obvious vertical.
Thank you- I'm so happy these are helpful! And thanks about that note about Jane Fonda- I was just thinking of making a video about all the celebrities that Kibbe has retyped and having a discussion around that and now I think it might have to come sooner than I thought lol.
Thank you for your videos. I took the test you offered here. I have a question. I had 6 A's and 5 B's mostly my face is A and my body is B. Which do you suggest I use clothing from?
can someone help me? i got 5 C, 9 D and 6 E (1 for b and a) so I think I'm Romantic, but I honestly also relate to Theatrical Romantic , which one should I consider?
A true Dramatic Classic would be mostly C answers with some As. So, predominantly Classic with some added sharpness. Do you feel that describes you? I have often found that people tend to choose 'C' a lot when they first take the test (I know I did) because it feels 'safe'. When you haven't trained your eye to see 'sharpness' or 'bluntness' or 'softness'- it can feel easier to say you're right in the middle. Done enough times, this gives you a disproportionate number of C answers and makes you think you're a Classic when you might not be. Now, you may very well be a Dramatic Classic- but that's just something to think about. Maybe try some SD lines and see if they feel right on you. Also allow for some time and then take the test again and see if you get the same answers.
