Include: Square, sharp shoulders (shoulder pads are essential in every garment you own, without exception).Bold, sweeping geometrics, angular shapes, and sharp edges are called for. DETAIL: Detail should always be clean and minimal to complement your sculpted, chiseled look.In addition, extremely rough textures that are thick and heavy will overpower your sleek body. Also, in most cases clingy fabrics are extremely unsophisticated on you. Avoid: Overly sheer, lightweight fabrics that float.Keep in mind, however, that occasionally lightweight fabrics can work, if they are extra structured in the design of the garment. Italian tweeds, thick gabardines, twills, faille, stiff brocades, and heavy satins are a few examples that will tailor best for you. Textures should be tightly woven and shiny fabrics should be very stiff and ultraglitzy. Moderate to heavyweights are best, with a matte finish and smooth surface. FABRIC: Fabrics that hold a defined shape are necessary.Broken or horizontal lines (not elegant enough for you). Unconstructed silhouettes (sloppy on you). Avoid: Soft, flowing lines (too matronly on you).Always straight, with elongated draping that is sleek, is your version of a “soft line”. LINE AND SILHOUETTE: This goes hand-in-hand with your shape.Ornateness translates into “fussy” on you. Also, anything delicate intricate or overly fragile. Avoid: Anything rounded, swirled, or overly draped.

Triangles, rectangles, and anything sculpted, sleek, and elongated with crisp edges. Whatever mood you want to express, in whatever situation your find yourself–work, play or glamour–keep your shapes sharp and geometric.

TAPERED COLUMNS SOFTP SOFTPLAN 2016 FULL
Have lush, full facial features (round eyes, fleshy cheeks, full lips).Heaviness usually congregates around the hip and upper thigh area as opposed to the upper torso. Straight, sleek lines. Sloe or almond eyes narrow, thin or straight lips taut skin, especially around the cheek and jaw areas.Įxtreme texture. Fine and silky, either poker-straight or with a bend. Very coarse and curly or wavy (wild).Īny coloring is possible (warm or cool, high-contrast or blended), but a Dramatic is usually distinct, either very fair, very fiery, or very vivid. A more helpful description would be “sleek.” This is actually not true, for example length keeps it from being truly delicate. Straight and angular, may tend to long or sleek musculature (sinewy or lithe.) Usually have long legs and arms. Narrow in width.Īngular, with sharp edges. Usually have square shoulders (may be narrow). Hands and feet are usually long and narrow. Facial bones are sharp or prominent (nose, jawline, cheekbones). Sometimes, the bone structure is called “delicate” because of its narrowness. Moderate to tall, usually 5 feet 5 inches and over. Therefore, a slight deviation here or there is always possible and should not be worried over as long as no single factor upsets your extreme, sharp Yang balance. It is the overall combination of strong, sharp physicality, a cool reserve, and charismatic power that creates this Image Identity category. NOTE: The following information should be taken as a broad outline of what makes a Dramatic. The following are Kibbe’s descriptions of a Dramatic Body Type: Kibbe’s Dramatic is described as a “Regal Lady.” You can read more about Kibbe’s Dramatic here. Dramatic is the pure yang, all sharp angles and straight, long lines. To kick things off, I thought we’d start with one of Kibbe’s pure essences, Dramatic.
