Trying On The Types | Finding My Kibbe Body Type

The search continues! In my last Kibbe video I took an online test to determine what my Kibbe body type might be, but it wasn't conclusive. In this video I'm going to take all of your input and suggestions, and try to find my type by trying on different clothes. Please feel free to weigh in!

My name is Lucy, I'm a Dutchwoman here to offer an alternative approach to beauty.

On this channel I do mostly hair tutorials where I show you how to braid, pin and style your own hair. I recreate hairstyles from movies, tv shows or history and I regularly come up with my own, which I love to share with you!

I really enjoy diving into history to find out how women went about their beauty and dressing rituals in days past. Vintage and history-themed videos are my little passion project.

You'll find a bit of lifestyle content here as well, ranging from cozy chats over a cup of tea (my beloved Tea Time videos) to personal vlogs and home & interior videos.

Enjoy browsing!

Love,
Lucy

Soft Natural looks extremly good on you.

[MissLeonable]

I honestly feel like you only look short when one only sees your face... Your whole body looks rather long and tall.

I have to admit: I think I was wrong with saying you’re gamine. Your body does look more natural. Also your voice and your character seems more natural (honest, confident, uncomplicated) than gamine (childlike, cute).

The soft natural looks seemed to flatter you the most. Although that red dress was my absolute favorite. It honestly could have worked for a couple different body types. The soft gamine styles were cute, but they didn't really work for you.

In the soft natural looks you looked like a model- they fit your whole vibe perfectly. I think "elevated boho" works really well on you!

I've already commented this, but I don't know if you saw it: I believe you're a Soft Natural. I think your bones are consistently long and wide, and your flesh is consistently soft (which led you to give yourself too many Yin answers). Also, I think your vertical line is moderate: I guessed your height approximately correctly. Your body type reminds me of Aishwarya Rai, especially the shape of your face. Also, I disagree with the opinion that your face is typically Gamine. What I see on your face is the same as the rest of your body: wide jaw line, wide cheekbones, wide nose, soft cheeks and lips, rounded eyes. In my opinion, that's also typical of Soft Natural. I think your face makes you think of Gamines because there's a doll-like roundness to your eyes and lips, but that can actually be the case for any type with lots of softness. I also wouldn't call you any type of Dramatic, because I don't see anything sharp or narrow on you.

I’d confidently say soft natural!! Looks extremely harmonious. You look tall and have larger limbs and hands in my opinion.

Now that I’ve seen you in the different lines it is very clear you are some type of natural. Those gamine outfits didn’t stand out in any positive way like the natural outfits did. The high neck and tight fit looked a bit suffocating. You looked perfect in the long wide leg pants and that outfit is quintessential natural (meaning only flamboyant and soft naturals can pull it off so well). You should do another video trying on flamboyant and soft natural to see which is best. A main component of Kibbe is figuring out what you pull off like no one else can, and I believe with your natural body and ingenue face (similar Gigi hadid and Selena Gomez) you’ll be able to pull off a style that is super beautiful and unique.

I definitely prefer the "soft natural" look on you! I don't know anything about the Kibbe system, but I really like the long soft flowing lines of that silhouette on you. The "gamine" clothes looked nice on you, but a bit restrictive - I agree with what you said about the shapes being too small for you. The "dramatic" clothes, meanwhile, didn't suit your face or demeanor at all - the very bold, structured look on you felt almost "little girl playing dress up" to me.

I watch your channel to better interact with my granddaughters. Your videos are informative. I like your statements such as “I like myself, It looks better on me or for me, I like how it looks on me”. It demonstrates a strong personal character and what I like my granddaughters and young ladies to learn, rather than to follow defined styles and body types of others. It looks like you are happy and having fun when you demonstrate your many styles from vintage to casual, to current beautiful formal clothes and hair styles. Your strong character and ability to choose many lovely styles as you showed on the “Trying on All My Clothes” video makes your channel special.

Before you started the Kibbe series, I thought you were soft natural! That was largely based on hairstyles that look good on you, like the tousled Brigitte Bardot looks. I could see where you would be soft gamine, but I think there’s a lot of overlap and confusion between SN and SG because they both have a mixture of yin and yang, leaning slightly toward yin. As for the face, I think soft naturals can easily have ingenue essence, like Selena Gomez. The outfits in this video confirm my original opinion. Soft natural lines look amazing on you :)

[lapislazuliblues]

The soft-natural look suits you the most 😍

[fearnotthedarkness]

soft natural was my favorite. gamine looks definitely made you seem unnecessarily younger, and the dramatic outfits seemed very separate from you. soft natural felt comfortable, was flattering and so cute. theres plenty of people who dont take height into account at all, also.

[Namerinoyoyo]

soft natural clothes suits you the most imo but soft gamine hair suits you the best
I guess it is a face vs body thing again but idk

[wendybone]

Soft natural! You looked so comfortable and relaxed in those clothes, more "yourself" than in the other types, if that makes sense.

[Crewelperleology]

My favourite look on you was the soft dramatic jump-suit, accompanied by the sleek hair and bold red lipstick. The colour and tone of the red dress was perfect for you, but I think a less flowing fabric and cut would suit you better. The slightly messy soft natural hair took away from your lovely face. Softly full hair with clean lines, makes you look so put together.

[praveenapillai]

You seem like a soft natural with ingenue essence..very similar to selena gomez as someone already mentioned in the comments..I think that comparison really helps in relating more to your specific features.. personally I really felt while you gave your test that you most probably would relate with a soft natural..

[cincocats]

After your previous video I thought gamine was the wrong track for you and seeing you in those outfits I feel confirmed that first thought. I'm soft natural and 5'7 height, and when I try on clothes that are gamine or very edgy I look like I'm in costume and it just feels off and I think it seemed the same for you. Being a soft natural is actually good, because you can add in elements of romantic or dramatic. I think that is why vintage feminine styling like you did for your Edwardian and recreate a picture videos suited you so well.

[endlessturns]

Nah nah nah Flamboyant Natural all the way!!! Try those lines especially a elongated T shape. Great video:))

[Pliine]

The soft neutral looks like it’s the perfect mix between your personal style and a flattering silhouette 🙂
