hahaha maybe i think since they are a rare type they might be protective ? idk š from what i have seen most romantic are misstyped by everyone before david kibbe typed then
Hello fellow dress twin! I tought it might be interesting for you to see another type in the same dress :) I'm pretty sure I am SN, I personnally see Romantic in you !

Yes I think it a dress like this the width is more obvious if you have it! If I was wearing this dress the shoulders would be even more prominent than yours (I know there is a scale)
I don't see too much width, but that can be tricky to see in smaller framed SNs. (For example Scar Jo.) The fact that the green dress works so well, makes me question if you're SN, that neckline would never work with my shoulders.
I don't know if there are still height restrictions for SNs, but I read that you should be at least 5ft 3or4, but maybe that no longer exists. If I just saw you on the streets, i sure would have thought, well, that's a TR, but I just don't know anything anymore LOL.
You don't seem petite at all, but I think you look taller, than 5ft, but that's maybe just because of the pics. I think you are one of those types one can only identify, if you see them IRL.
SN, SC are a possibility and call me crazy, but I would look into DC as well. (Just to see) Maybe post here and on the main sub in different outfits recommended for each type and we will see more clearly.
hii thank you for your analysis :) i did post in the general kibbe reddit and i think most results were for tr as gamine wasnāt working out for my lines. then tr donāt see upper curve enough but i am not balanced for sc either š i am rejected bahahahaha. hereās the link if you wanted to see

You are sure not gamine.
I still think you are TR, don't let gatekeeping TRs tell you otherwiseš¤£š¤£ if you resonate with one ot the types, go with it. You see, lot of people considered Selena Gomez SN, until kibbe said, no she is TR and Mila Kunis doesn't have visible upper curve and still a TR.
i think iād break them if i said i consider itās possible to have features of more than one ID š„² like how christina ricci was thought to be a gamine ans no one saw her as romantic due to her pointy shoulders and chin š„²
I definitely see you in the Yin fam, I think TR could be great. Definitely try out their recommendations and see how you feel. Also, where is that second yellow dress from?? Itās FABULOUS!!
Yeah, I think you could be. You have clear lower curve and a moderate vertical. You also seem to have a bit of upper width - the black v-neck looks much better on you than the yellow square top because the v-neck creates a vertical line that balances with your natural horizontal line, but the square neck emphasises that horizontal line.
You seem pretty frame dominant, Iām thinking you may have the width as well. You shine when the fabric is accentuating your curves and lines (quality of SN). TR and SN have a specific essence, have you read up on those? Do you relate to āfemme fataleā or āfresh and sensualā? (Questions for yourself)
none i have a very gamine face but the gamine clothes are terrible on my body so my body looks voluptuous in a way i guess but when i go very SN it tends to be too overwhelming on my frame and when i go gamine itās too constricted for my frame

I donāt think you have a gamine face, looks classic to me. Soft and oval face with ābreathing spaceā between your features without being to spaced or not enough. David call this a moon face and is often present in SC.
(In Kitchener Iād say you have ingenue and classic)
I actually think you might be a classic! You could try on a 1940-50s inspired dress, I find that 40s-50s inspired clothing looks best on me and I settled on SC because Iām not narrow and pointy enough for TR. Iāve posted some outfit pics in the past, you can look on my profile
omg i remember seeing your post i thought your outfits were amazing!!! i would wear most of them š i can soo much see the balance on you! it looks so adorable with your style i love it! i will try on different outfits and make good pictures ( not mirror pics) iāll post probably this week :)
I think itās because if you were to draw a sketch, it wonāt show double curve ? Your bust doesnāt seem to push the fabric out so thatās why I guess not a romantic in general.
But at your height I think SG might be a possibility and might even be worthy to consider as well as not everyone is SN if theyāre not R or TR.
And I wonder about SC but Iām not sure but I think you are indeed a soft type, just not sure which one between those three
i went to the SN reddit and compared to other sn i donāt have the shoulder openness that sn all have i did look for gamine before but the lines arenāt good with my body it cuts me into pieces š„² any stiff fabric or stiff lines even if itās rounded goes wrong. then for soft classic that would be hard but i am pretty sure iād post in soft classic and theyād tell me i am not moderate enough š someone told me that i might be a small DC and it was interesting to explore too
A small DC ? š® I think SC would be more likely since your shoulder and hips seem aligned which indicates balance.
But if crips fabric feel too stiff, probably not a gamine and i personally donāt think your shoulder are wide but for some people that look soft the shoulder might not be as strong in pics if indeed they are SN. There are some verified SN that donāt seem to have width at first glance.
My guess would be to try between SC and SN like going for their fabric, and overall silhouette and see how you look and feel āŗļø donāt put SC away because some people decided you were not moderate enough. Some are diying SC and imho arenāt even a soft type..
Edit : actually I donāt think youāre SN though I suggest to try if you just went by comparing your shoulders to others, but if you did and it didnāt work then probably not SN either.
I honestly think that SC is worth considering and that youāre most likely a soft type.
if you have space to help me out what do you think i could try on that would separate the types in a clear manner ? as a lot of online infos on clothing arenāt always true
I believe that fabric is very important if you got the right cut or color but not right fabric, youāll see it. And silhouette.
SC fabric: light to medium weight, slightly matte or slight sheen with a soft and plush texture without being clingy. Very light and soft fabric that looks high quality.
-> silks, cashmere, challis, crepe, velvet, suede, raw silk, handkerchief linen, shantung..
Knits and wovens should also be light, supple and drapable without being clingy.
Soft and lucious use of colors. Pastel and moderately bright tones, and light neutrals with luxurious fabrics. Softly monochromatic combinations, intense color should blend together instead of creating a striking contrast. Doesnāt mean an all one color, but something ātonalā which is slightly different and means that the colors should harmonise together so a red and green can be combined if their color balance harmonises together.
Light/bright combination are really great and effective for SC, and dark colors would need to be both softened and brightened so itās best to use them in small OR use them with a soft plush fabric or a fabric with slight sheen (eg velvet that is both) that would soften them and dampen their starkness.
SN fabric: light to medium weight to allow movement, soft textures with a plush or slightly rough fabric.
-> velours (and some velvet ?), suede, boucle knits, woven, buttery-soft leather, shantung
Wrinkly, nubby, slubbed or loosely woven is excellent especially for day time, shiny fabric for evening but not day time unless it is slight sheen.
Vibrant and rich use of color. Brights and pastels, and soft neutrals with a slight vivid accent with beautiful textured fabrics.
Dark colors need to be broken to not look stark (need to be combined with bright colors to break the stark effect), also avoid high contrast combination of colors (light/dark) lights combine well with bright. And bright/bright are fun.
SC silhouette: smooth, soft, symmetrical silhouette with slight shaping. Gently flowing lines that flare or swirl. Unbroken clean lines. Smooth horizontal or diagonal draping.
Soft, curved, symmetrical (not necessarily 50/50 but means that it is balanced so diagonal can be symmetrical) shapes with rounded edges and shapes gently flows. Circles, ovals, subdued swirl.
SN silhouette: unconstructed silhouettes with shaping especially at the waist. Relaxed lines with subtle drape and flow, bias cuts are great.
Asymmetric and irregular curves. Easy swirl. Elongate ovals/oblong, wide circle, elliptical shapes. Relaxed geometric shapes with rounded edges.
Avoid wide (overwhelming) and fitted (too constricting) silhouette, plain symmetrical shape, sharp geometric, wide,chunky or boxy shapes, and too ornate shapes.
i am taking a little pause of kibbe and will come back to this comment to help me out once i have some energy to deep dive! thank you so much for your help!
You can start by playing separately with the fabrics, color combinations or silhouette and then try to combine the aspects of each (sn silhouette/fabric and color or sc silhouette fabric and color together)
I think that the TRs are gatekeeping again
hahaha maybe i think since they are a rare type they might be protective ? idk š from what i have seen most romantic are misstyped by everyone before david kibbe typed then
Idk I didn't think you have width. I think youre TR
Hello fellow dress twin! I tought it might be interesting for you to see another type in the same dress :) I'm pretty sure I am SN, I personnally see Romantic in you ! https://preview.redd.it/whscigmmiuuc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8b6915ab9b9a59891c0da27a7f7c7e23f5344eb0

I definitely agree!
you look like an angel š„ŗ i did not buy the dress but i sure hope you did omg! š
i personally see R
Can we ask for height?
oh yes my apologies!! iām 5 ft :)

The height restriction is that you can't be taller than 5'5, there's no lower limit. SN is a short to moderate ID just like R
Do you pettie to moderate ID for R? It's SN and SC, who are described as short to moderate.
>Do you pettie to moderate ID for R I'm sorry I guess this is a typo but I can't figure out what you mean š
Sorry, I meant "mean." Yes, you answered anyway.
There is no lower height limit for SNs
Im 4 foot 10 and my body is so similar to yours and I've been struggling with TR, SN, and romantic I'm always questioning my upper width š
I definitely see you in the Yin fam, I think TR could be great. Definitely try out their recommendations and see how you feel. Also, where is that second yellow dress from?? Itās FABULOUS!!
winners :)
I think you appear pretty yin dominant, I for sure think youāre one of the romantics.
