🙋🏼 ABOUT ME: Hi guys! My name is Alyona. I was born in Russia. I'm a musician. And I love art, makeup, fashion, style and beautiful environments. I love playing with makeup and fashion, but at the same time, I’m quite a minimalistic person. I don't like the idea of being fixated on the body too much. I have an alternative and unconventional viewpoint on beauty, the body types and face shapes. I love helping other women find their "it" and finally discover their beauty and boost their confidence.
I have several series on my channel that you might be interested in such as: Body Types, Contouring, Makeup History and Makeup Transformations. Also some random beauty hacks about skin care, hair, nails and beauty in general.
Love x x x

You should really work with a translator. You’re misusing the word “overweight” here and it comes off offensively when I do not think you intend it to be. Even just having a script editor could help.
Gorgeous singing!!! I LOVE IT❤ Thank you for the information you share!!!
underwear for the dramatic body? 🥺🤔
What about underweight?
ALL I KNOW IS, I'M SOFT 😭🤷🏾♀️🤣
Me too
And poofy. XD
soft because of flesh/being over weight or soft in bones? this is what you need to denote the differences between.

I appreciated a comment in a previous video that explained that finding THE ONE type was not as important as knowing what does NOT work. I am 5'11" and waiver between dramatic and flamboyant natural styles. But I have eliminated all flowy fabrics, cropped jackets, and overly drapey clothes thanks to Aly. Much happier with my wardrobe, hair, and makeup. Multiple style types make it fun - so confusion is not an issue!
Yes that's exactly what I do with all this Kibbe information! I haven't been able to figure myself out exactly but I have been able to understand why certain styles and silhouettes have always looked terrible on me! Lol! Super helpful
I am the exact same!! I’m 5’11” and waver between dramatic and flamboyant natural!
This is my approach too! In my opinion knowing what not to do works so much better when shopping or getting a hair cut.
Thank you this is me too!
Sounds like you might be dramatic then
IMPORTANT!!! In the video I explained WHY I don't use really overweight pictures. I just show you celebrities that represent this type and also show with errors where the overweight can appear first.
Yes, exactly! You're not saying, "This woman is overweight". You're saying, "Here's a picture of a Dramatic/Romantic/Gamine, etc", THEN pointing the arrows at where they *would* gain weight if they were overweight. I can see why people would get offended if they hadn't seen your whole series. But once people watch enough of your content, they will see how lovely and accepting you are! You're truly a cheerleader for ALL women. And they'll understand your intention with this video. Much love, Aly! ❤❤❤
i understand that.
Overweight never sounds good, there’s too much negative connotations to it.
You should use only 'gained weight' or 'weight gain' if you want to use more neutral wording. The 'over' in 'overweight' can be seen as negative I think
A person can be at a healthy weight, over their healthy weight, or under their healthy weight. These are facts. I sincerely worry that we may unintentionally contribute to the stigma by making it a "bad word". Mean people will be rude and judgmental no matter what word we use, right?. And they're just as mean when someone is underweight. We don't have to accept their negativity! Let them keep it. 😘 ❤
I'm still as confused about my type as ever, but I have a lot of fun learning about Kibbe and I definitely enjoy trying different lines to see how different I look
Jirou Dayo hello! We have a community in reddit full of support if you want to check it out in r/Kibbe
@@myrrh1581 I posted there before and I'm still stuck between D, FG and DC 😅
I'm u/Namerinoyoyo if you want to see my posts
Jirou Dayo I’ll go check them out! I’m a mod ☺️ I can help guide but still you know your body best ❤️
@@myrrh1581 thank you so much, I love the subreddit 😊
Jirou Dayo I just messaged you there! Thanks! It’s all thanks to Kibbe- and Aly for sharing this with us ❤️❤️❤️
Edit: now I think I'm a SC, it explains better my weight gain pattern
I'm an overweight TR and indeed my face, upper arms and thighs are super soft and fleshy, while the lower arms and calves remain slim. The midsection is tricky: from the front I still have some waist definition, but from the side I look 4-5 months pregnant. I find it crucial to have waist emphasis in clothes, if not I look like I'm wearing a barrel.
Right with you on this one
Same! 🥰
rdpcl This is a spot on description, esp the front view vs side! I've been doubting for months, but you swept that away. 30 yrs ago another system, using shoulder, waist & hip measurements, placed me as an X with secondary characteristic of d, a rounded stomach.
Same. About 15 overweight. The face gain is the weirdest to me.
I'm a slightly overweight romantic, and i understand what you're saying!! from the front i have plenty waist defenition, but from the side i do indeed look pregnant. waist defenition is the way to go
I feel fleshy, square, and personally attacked 🤣🤣🤣
Aaa! Screaming lol !
This cracked me up 😂 I’m feeling extremely soft, fleshy, and upset
Lolll! Me too, and a little puffy...
😅😅
Kkkkkkkk
*Yep- still a Soft gamine,🤣 These kibbe videos of yours are TOP NOTCH as always! I would love updates style in fashion ideas- maybe using current trends as a way for each type to wear them?*
I am so jelaous of you that you know your type xD
@@funkuchen2 Wasnt easy, take the two you fall between and start taking away, which type are you the most like after that...you have to kinda add up and subtract. Like I'm short, have broad hands, shoulders are also not slim like other gamines, I look like I'm playing dress up in other styles, clothes fit me best at the joints, etc. I look kid like to ppl from a distance, I get picked as the youngest of the group even if I'm the Oldest. Hope that helps.
I thought I was a soft gamine because of being overweight but then I lost 45 lbs and I’m just straight up gamine.
I chopped all my hair off and people love my “new look” => I just feel like the best version of myself!!! 🥰
Veronica, same
same here. im overweight rn which made me think i was soft gamine, but after more research and the way fat sits only in my stomach and thighs (and none above the waist AT ALL) im fairly sure im a "pure" gamine.
I think I'm a strange example of an obese gamine. 😂 I have the shape of one except a belly
So, if all the types that tend to become pear shaped simply dressed for a “ pear shaped” body type, we would be completely disregarding the things that make a natural unique from a dramatic or a flamboyant gamine! And if we dressed for “Apple” body type, flamboyant naturals and romantics might be dressing the same and losing what makes our bone structure type unique! Not to mention that more than one type can have an hourglass shape. Kibbe’s system has so much more going on.
😍exactly
Ok but the thing is I know that I'm a "pear" but still after years can't figure my kibbe type.
@@dianas7429 think about what looks bad on you and why. It helps.
I'm a Flamboyant Gamine and I have found out that I can't handle excess weight well. It's frustrating but I think that FGs, in general, look better in lower weight due to their boyish-like appearance qualities. On the contrary, I've noticed some types (R, TR) can pull off some additional kilos with ease.
I agree! I’m a flamboyant Gamine too and even ten lbs makes me look very thick and heavy. I’m also short and I look short so it makes me look terrible lol
@@julietteariel Haha, I feel you! Some women get curvier and more feminine when putting on weight, but I get more and more squarish. I don't even start how I look on photos even when I'm thin - even shorter and boxier while my hubby with his long limbs always look way fitter on any pic literally from each angle :D
I think the ones that manage overweight the best are soft dramatics, I swear like 90% of plus size models are soft dramatics
@@elizabethroa6970 I've never thought about that, but you're right! They just get more feminine.
I am soft gamine and i feel the same as you! The way i put on weight is not "womanly" and feminine i just look broad and short like a thick square. I guess because of gamines youthful look we look better with lower weight.
And underweight? I think for romantics and natural it's easy to confuse 🤔
Underweight is bones 🤔
Oh my gosh pleaseeeee!!!!
@@AhsokaTano101 what ?
@@user-hm9uq8gk5x 😂😂😂😂 im joking lol
Oh yes please 🙏🏻 ! I'm stuck between these two types. I think I'm either TR or SN but not sure.
This is Aly appreciation comment. We love what you are doing and keep it up!
Why do I feel like I am all of them
haha, just worte a similiar comment. I can't even rule out dramatic or romantic. It's driving me insane
😂
Try putting a full body pic of yourself, from the front, next to a pic of one of the celebrities in her main body types videos. I think this video is a bit confusing, but her earlier ones are good for the comparison pics. For example I'm a dramatic for sure, and it's apparent when I put myself next to other types that my bones are sharp and long. Even when I'm overweight my collarbones are angular and shoulders are sharp.
@@rj3892 such good advice! Who knows offhand a out the shape of their Shoulder bones? Until they examine a photo!
it must mean youre a classic ;)
Some of this can change with age, as far as where the weight accumulates. Post menopausal overweight tends to be more in the torso and tummy/waist/back. When I was younger I was pear shaped- my hips and butt and thighs were where my fat collected. After age 50 I am more rectangle shaped. My hips and butt got smaller. Knee high boots that use to be too tight on my calves are now loose on my calves. I went down a size or two in jeans but I have less of a defined waistline. And I think this is common for women after age 50, lower estrogen levels are the cause. I do feel that plus size and older women are usually not included in the type examples so it is harder to figure out our types. Celebrities in general are young and thinner than average, and celebrities are most of the examples I see.
👏
Of course it's confusing. According to Kibbe, gaining weight in lower part of the body is yang (masculine) feature, which in reality is more of a female (yin/feminine) trait to carry weight in bum, hips and ties. Men, on the contrary, gain weight in upper half of the body - torso mainly (belly, back, chest) which is a main reason why men live shorter than women and are more prone to heart and vascular conditions. That's why broad upper part of the body (shoulders, chest, waist) is yang/masculine and wide hips, ties and bum is more yin/feminine feature. But, when gaining weight, it all seems completely inverted. It just makes less and less sense to me. Wide hips and bum is not male constitution, it's female. Broad shoulders and back/chest is not so much female feature, is more masculine. I would expect that women with yang/masculine bone structure/flesh gain weight like men do an vice versa.
I think you should see the weight gain patterns less as 'yang weight gain' and more as 'lack of yin weight gain'. All women, from dramatic to romantic, are women: so they will tend to be somewhat pear-shaped nonetheless. That's just female biology. But women with yin flesh are fleshy to begin with, they have boobs and soft fleshy arms and soft cheeks etc. So they gain weight in that yin 'soft all over' pattern, in the softest fleshiest part of the body, while yang woman don't become 'even softer and fleshier', they just get the baseline female cus hormones that make us pearshaped-'pearshaped weight gain', does that make sense? They don't have that all over fleshyness to begin with so they just gain weight in the typically female way as that is the only way to, while yin women are *already* fleshy and become even fleshier in the fleshy parts, which is also arms etc.
@@gittevandevelde2208 Thank you for your interesting input. It does make lots of sense, however, I tend to gain weight as men do, being very fleshy SD (bust size 36H, waist/bust difference 25''). Sure, when I'm overweight I tend to gain in ties and upper arms as well, however, my chest, back and belly are most affected beside face. I would expect that FN's or D's gain weight in similar manner. Becoming more squarish and broader all over (D) or in upper half of the body which is already more pronounced (swimmer built) for FN's. But I get your point. Thanks again.
But we are talking about women here. Yang is not equal to men in Kibbe system. Yang weight gain pattern is just "not yin".
@@lux3370 Of course. But, if we have two principles - yin and yang, and if something is not yin - what is it then? We talk about women who have yang/masculine-like bone structure and/or flesh. Me included (yang bone structure). We can play with terminology, but yang is male/masculine principle..Tall, strong, sharp, angular, broad, dry, long, square.
@@blueice011 It's basically the same as a yang dominant type (like D, FN, Or FG) won't automatically have a completely straight figure. We are females and most of us starts with a baseline of curves. The same logic applies to yang weight gain pattern: we shouldn't expect it to be the same to an actual man in every case, because we are women.
DC here. I'm just barely 5'4", so petite but on the taller extreme , felt flat chested my whole life w strong shoulders. Only when I gained the most ever in my life did it show up in the bosom, always just the butt , thighs, waist. I was relieved so much when they started selling 2 piece bathing suits as separates! because I always knew the tops would be a bit big.
ps. I just love that buttery- soft yellow corduroy jacket Ali!
Thank you, Aly, extremely helpful! One more interesting topic is how different body types are getting older.
Yes, menopause seems to thicken a woman's waist.
Cool@
I'm dramatic classic and even if I do gain weight on top, I mostly gain weight on butt and upper thight area, so for me kibbe is accurate.
Thank you like always 😊
Same :P
Aly, you are so kind while instructive, & encouraging to those of us who struggle with weight.😍 I wish that the fashion industry would design more for Romantics, *without* assuming we all want plunging necklines!🤨
I love how much you give us in your videos. It’s super helpful. I’ve been subscribed for years. But even if it’s been months; when you show back up, instead of giving us excuses; you give us well-thought-out, helpful content. I could not ask for more!🥰
Maybe you're a neutral.
Chantal Pinsonneault yah I think I’m a Natural. But I used to think Classic.
Would you ever consider doing a personal consultation for a fee? Maybe via email or possibly by zoom call?
Yes, please! I too would pay for that in a heartbeat.
I believe she does this
I could really use that! Growing older gracefully is not going on at this point. Help me!
Me too❤️
I don’t think Aly does it personally but on Reddit/kibble they can classify you
Dramatic classics gaining weight from the waist down is accurate in my case. Unfortunately I mostly gain weight in the form of muffin tops, which in combination with my hip dips gives me a shape I'm not too happy with.
Has Aly ever made a video about hip dips/ violin hips?
My hubby is the same. Exercise balances even better than dieting. I love him in minimalistic crisp clothes. Pants shouldn’t be too low rise and tops not end in that area.
I like the way you talk about weight. It's not judging or shaming its just real.
I love this series of videos!
You look sp relaxed, laid - back, Look Happy, And so vibrant!!!
Thank you. You have a way with wording that makes me feel not only comfortable but beautiful! And I thought my body was a real mess until you helped me look at myself in a different light... Priceless!
I love your really sweet friendly chatty style, Aly, it's like sitting across from a friend! And since I cannot sit across from any friends at the moment in Covid time, haha, I appreciate it even more.
At this point I am every type there is. xD
😜
same, my answers to the test were all over the place ;p
I can relate, my 5'5 height is not much of a help either🙄
@@MonkeyDLuffy-rr3wl RIGHT I hate being 5’5 cause I can litterally be any type and it’s so much harder!
@@bumblebee_0112 Not 100% sure about my type, but I'm either a Soft Natural or a Dramatic Classic. I look very SN, but I hate the standard clothing style of it (the flowy boho dresses), I feel like I look a bit too masculine for Classic, but my face is a babyface in proportion and I look good in Classic Type's lines too.
So what I know FOR SURE is that I'm NOT: a Dramatic/Soft Dramatic/Flamboyant Natural:I don't think I look tall
Romantic/Theatrical Romantic-I don't look small & dainty, however, my face looks immature for my age
Not a type of Gamine-I don't look boney, my body looks pretty adult-like, ever since I hit puberty
I'm not a Soft Classic-I'm not delicate enough
I may not be a Classic either, not balanced enough
Not a pure Natural, I know I have an hourglass figure and my face is pretty feminine, but not as feminine to be considered a Romantic face
Maybe if you compare yourself to types' features as I did, you'll find your type, but honestly, I'd be really happy if Aly could see me in person and say what I am. Lol
I was confused but not anymore ! I am definitely a Soft Classic, thank you Aly!
I love how you are talking about different types. Not like the one right type. Like different beautys. There is beauty in every one. Beauty is different. Not that Instagram dug face that looks the same all the time
Thanks a lot! I'm stuck between Dramatic Classic and Soft Dramatic, but now I'm pretty sure, that I'm Dramatic Classic! :)
Based on your profile picture you really do look like a dramatic classic
I thought I was the only one stuck between those two, nobody seems to ask about it! I'm leaning the soft dramatic way though :D
Soft dramatics have more of an hourglass figure. I'm a dramatic classic myself.
I finally know I'm dramatic classic, finally someone mentions that the last place to gain weight in the bust!
The last thing that blows up is my waist. But usually its my arms than back, than legs and finally the waist. Right now i have that lovely "post pandemic" body.
Im fat
I’m typing classic again, soft classic but my arms and legs are not short they are exactly proportional. I was shocked to measure and find them to be exactly proportional. Gain weight all over but seems to show mostly in stomach area, however bust and hips gain equally. Modeled when younger but at 5’5” a little short for runway. Always leaned toward matching tailored clothes and athletic - matching, of course, outfits. I can carry off a doubled breasted, tailored blazer, slim pants and flats or heels. Have always stayed away from large chunky jewelry. Thanks for helping me realize why there are clothes that I run from and others suit me overall. Tried your suggested makeup for soft classic balancing eyes with matching lips in intensity, realized you are right especially after looking at photos. Wow it does make a measurable difference. Thank you, thank you.
Very helpful! I thought I was a soft classic but now I know I'm actually a true classic, just with weight on (I gain it everywhere while keeping a certain shape).
Wow, this is the video that finally got rid of my confusion of whether I'm a Romantic or a TR. I'm definitely TR as even though I've gained considerable amount of weight, I still have an hourglass and my lower limbs are still relatively slim, but my face and upper limbs always gain weight
OK so by this video I am now convinced that I am a classic. Watching the other videos I was confused and didn’t know if I was a Classic or a Soft Natural. However I was overweight about two years ago by 35 lbs but no one was able to guess how much I weighed because my weight was so evenly distributed all throughout.
Perfect! I was so confused when I started lately I've been pretty sure I was a soft dramatic. I gain weight just like a soft dramatic so thanks for confirming!
*basically says Soft Dramatic gains weight everywhere except the calves*
Okay I’m definitely a Soft Dramatic 🤣
I also got called out by that.
Yep same lol
What!?! I'm so confused now lol
and forearms. basically we gain weight from the middle to the extremities.
Idk, I think I'm soft dramatic but my calves are huge... I could be an overweight dramatic.
Really love your channel and the kind way you talk about different bodies. Would you be able to do something like this for athletic bodies? I'm finding it very challenging to read bone structure through muscle especially as only Naturals are referred to having prominent musculature by Kibbe. Some example pictures of the different types when they work out a lot would be really helpful.
i love this!💞
i wasn't sure if soft natural is my type because i'm slightly overweight but now i see that i gain weight exactly like you've said for this type!^^
What do I do if I don't understand my skin undertone even after watching so many videos on it? Are there any videos for African skin types? ❤❤❤
I have no idea about my undertone and im dark skinned as well. Something I did was trying same foundations with different undertones and i noticed that most olive/natural based foundations look better on me so im guessing that’s my undertone? maybe try that? idk i hope it helps
It's also great to compare your skin for example on wrists with other girls with similar shade to yours, I'd never know I have warm olive undertone until I did that and I discovered I'm glowing yellowish compared to others, get as many people as possible. Good luck!
Look at theconceptwardrobe. I cannot stress how WELL this site describes seasonal colour theory, across ALL ETHNICITIES.
@@farahzamir2138 ❤thank you, I'll check it out
@@rubyiskira8939 thank you ❤ I'll try
THANK YOU SO MUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH, things are getting clearer with every new video
Aly! I did what you said in teh other video about comparing the photos side by side on a app; I always thought I was a soft natural but now I see that I'm a theatrical romantic 😱
Same! Defining my waist a lot more than a soft natural would had giving me so much more confidence and comfort inn my clothes.
I am soft classic and a couple of years ago I overweighted o few kilos then I decided to start my fitness Journey. I gain and lost weight equally in all the body, maybe the most noticeable changes for me were the waist definition that I had lost, but as soon as I droped a couple of kilos it came back, and my face became chubby, I didn't notice until I seen some old photos from that time because my face it's not dry at all before the weightloss. As a fun fact, I train with heavy weights but even when I have some muscular definition the contours of my body still looking smooth.
You're lucky you can weight train! I'm a dramatic type and when I gain even moderate muscle I look very masculine. I've found that pilates is a good fit bc it keeps me toned without losing that bit of "flesh" that gives me femininity.
I found it quite interesting that when I was a little overweight, the weight collected in certain areas and now I weight train, the muscle creates the same silhouette, it's just tighter... If that makes sense
I'm a textbook dramatic classic. The makeup, hair and clothes apply to me exactly. My height is 5'5(165cm) and my weight is 154lb(70kg). I am overweight, but whenever someone guesses my weight they guess a surprisingly low number. Or if I tell them my weight they are always surprised. This is consistent with all my friends, family and even strangers. I live in Korea and most people are extremely conscious of weight so I do not think it is an error on their behalf. Although I do drastically change when I gain weight it doesn't seem that noticable until I show them before and after pictures side by side.I was wondering if any other dramatic classic had this experience and if it could be a trait that all dramatic classics have.
The same ! I gain 8 kg in 3 years, when I told this to people who know me, they look in at me like I am a liar or someone who has dismorphia disorder.
Same here !
True classic here, it is the exact same thing with me. I gain weight everywhere, so it doesn't really show. The bad thing is that loosing weight doesn't really show either (unless it is an extreme amount ofc), I lost 10 kgs since the beginning of March and nobody noticed 😅
I'm in FN and also have this. It seems common among Yang body types. People guess I weigh about 20-30 lbs less than I actually do. I think it's a combo of having a strong vertical line & maybe we're more muscular. I gained ~15 lbs and lost it in the last year, I could barely breathe in my regular clothes and had to go up a pants size but no one noticed!
you perfectly described my body type from height to weight. when i gain weight, i gain weight in my thighs and hips so my lower half and my belly pooch becomes prominent. do you face this similar situation as well?
Aly is so observant and she naturally loves categorization, which is always very interesting! It turns out I'm a Romantic. Of course! I think it's ironic that Drew Barrymore is an example of the type because I have been told I look like her. BTW, Drew had a breast reduction early in her career.
Every video you put out, tells me I’m a soft dramatic. I think you explain and describe everything very thoroughly and make it easy to follow 💜
Can you talk about “tomboyish” or butch clothes for the body types? I’m a Romantic type, I think, and the contrast of more masculine clothes often just makes me look more feminine & the outfit just looks separate from me. Are there ways to dress boyish without being Gamine or looking like I’m a kid playing dress-up in my dad’s old suits?
Like go more masculine with the colors, fabrics, and styling, but keep fairly fitted romantic lines so you don’t drown.
Laila Michelle ooh that’s really nice!
ok I don't care about kibbe at all so - disclaimer, but as an hourglassy human who doesn't like to dress femme all the time - layered lines on top (high neck sports crop under a scoop neck for example). Also oversized fits that hit almost to your knee (seriously. I'm only 5'2" but some of my fave looks are oversized, just about knee length, with very light shaping around the waist so it doesn't OVERemphasize my bust/waist by drowning them). Pair that with some combat boots and you're set. I'm often wearing an oversized hi-low crop T (I usually just cut them myself), a closer fit cami as a midlayer, and a looser pant or skinny jeans depending on the mood. Toss a bomber or an oversized blazer over that, and boom. Also material matters a lot - you want something that skims (silk, linen, tencel), not clings to you and not something that stands apart from you completely. It de-emphasizes my curves without me being obvious about it. I'm rarely going for full androgyny- I'm not trying to pass as NB or male so grain of salt on this advice, depending what your goal is- but this gets me pretty far within the kind of queer that I am, even though it doesn't match what's supposedly flattering for my body type (which is essentially a small beyonce shape, for reference).
Try looking up Marilyn Monroe in jeans. The key to R outfits is the defined waist - an easy way to achieve this is by wearing high rise pants/shorts that fit your waist. Tuck in your shirts or tie them above the waist, add a statement belt for bonus points.
@@Meliasaurus She is seeking Androgynous style. Marilyn's is too feminine if I'm understanding what OP is seeking
What about older women.... sagging breasts arms and getting thick in the middle. I’m shrinking too!!! Love all your videos thanks💖
Oh Denise. I hear ya. Sometimes it seems society wants to pretend menopausal women are invisible.
what did you look like when you were younger? Simply go with that.
Does the place you gain weight change? But this is still just one parameter out of many
After being a size 18 I have dropped over recent years to a size 10 petite. I am Theatrical romantic...bust and hips, smaller waist. My arms are the body part hardest to deal with....loose muscle tone due to weight loss and so many dresses now are sleeveless. I have to wear bolero jackets, blazers, and wrap ballet sweaters over them...In clothes except for my arms. My body looks almost the same as in my 30s. I am 73 and try to find wrap dresses which flatter me as my Dianne Von Furstenburg ones did in my 30s. SHoes are an issue too. Heels for me are a nono so I wear ballet flats, kitten heels or a low block heel.
How long till I shrink? I've always felt too tall for my introverted personality and would love to be shorter...
I am an overweight DC and while my shoulders, face, and clavicles have a sharpness to them, I gain weight primarily from the waist down (belly, hips, thighs, etc), but I am not pear-shaped. I’m quite even, like a classic. Some of the weight is also gained on the arms and upper body but to a slighter degree. The upper parts tend to remain the sharpest while the waist down looks thicker. Even while slim and hardly any belly fat, my thicker legs remain. The dramatic elements show more on my face and my ribcage even shows!
I am underweight and a video about it would be great.Because I look Dramatic but can't be sure that am I DC,D or FN.
THANK YOU! I finally figured out I'm Dramatic Classic 💗🙌
This is the video we all needed, thank you Aly ❤!!!
Weight on the hips and thighs is yan? Did I hear that right? Because that's crazy. Surely it's the most "feminine" place to put on weight? I think I give up on Kibbie.
I like that you say pear shape isn't a problem! I love the look of pear shaped women! It's so feminine ❤
I think I'm a Soft Dramatic but actually I've been torn between that one and Flamboyant Natural since I found your channel haha.
Pure Dramatic here, I absolutely only gain weight below the waist. It leads people to thinking I'm very skinny even when I'm average weight, because the hands, wrists, upper chest, neck, and face are the most exposed parts and mine are always very taut and slender. I'm getting curvy in the hips and tummy but no one seems to see that!
Thank you for making this. I’m 5’4” and generally quite muscular with long very muscular legs and quite thick but not broad shoulders even when under weight/ideal weight, heart shaped to round face, chesty and broad in torso. As I become slightly overweight I become quite square and thick in the middle very fast and my waist disappears.
Not sure if this is the case for everyone but I would add, for the theatrical romantics out there, I think excess weight can often come to the front of the belly. I find it hard to find waist emphasis clothes that don't highlight that 😅 there's like a specific kind of empire line top that ticks the box but it's so limited beyond that
Thanks to you I understood that I am a soft dramatic based on where I am overweight. Thanks a lot!
I still can't determine my body type. I'm either soft dramatic or flamboyant natural, because I'm 1.80, but too flashy for a dramatic. I have a problem to determine my bone structure, if they are angular or blunt
If you look better on tight clothes, no matter your weight, then you are SD; if, on the contrary, you look better on thick, oversized clothes, then you're FN.
@@Dan_Chiron I agree with this! As a FN I look much better in something that is loose and flowing, even heavy fabrics. Lots of gathers, oversized clothing, thick sweaters, or light dresses, as long as it's flowing, loose, or oversized, and cinched at the waist. SD looks better in tighter clothing for sure. Also, SD i think tend to have a medium to large bust size whereas FN have small to medium bust size.
What helped me determine my body shape, was taking a picture and then tracing the outline of my body, it helps you blend out everything, that would blur the shape or make you insecure
If you still can't figure it out you can also trace the shape of someone who is SD/FN and compare it to your own, the most noticable difference would be that FN look much wider in the upper Torso (not boobs, but the rib cage like all naturals do, slightly above the boobs and shoulders) and the waist is straighter,wider and longer compared to SD
The first thing you should notice for both body types is a long horizontal line, if you still can't see that, with drawing the outline you could also be a tall N for example, that's possible, too
For angular shapes - it usually looks more "bony", I'm FN and a bit underweight right now, but my shoulders still look blunt, because its not flesh that makes them look more blunt, but the muscles and thicker bones
I also look like I have an 11-Pack, as it's called despite not working out in the slightest lol
Dramatics are narrow and sleek, Naturals are wide and strong
@@jillianm8958 FN can have any size bust. The most important thing about FN is the T shape created by their vertical body line and strong shoulders. FN can have quite a bit of variation; thin, curvy, big or small bust; because the deciding factor is the T silhouette.
Ahhhhh, I’ve been eager for this info for so long!! It’s kind of a challenge to figure out how to interpret my body when being overweight means I often fall into the romantic category just due to having softness in many places.
I love the matte lipstick you are wearing. What brand and colour is it?❤️
Haven't watched it yet, but I was waiting for this video for a really long time 🙌🏻 thank you~🤗🤗
Can you talk about underweight? Cause I get confused whenever analyzing the flesh is my body since I have none 😅 it always seems like a dramatic person's flesh
Go with your bones :) are they rounded or sharp, what's the widest part of your body, your height, are your muscles easily visible and can you grow them with little to no workout or on the contrary?
yeah that would be so helpful. Im always underweight but when i was pregnant ended up with a fluffy lil tush and thighs. Is this yin? Has it always been yin?
Maybe you’re dramatic?
this is when you compare good photo of you to other dramatics. its impossible to view yourself in your head and analyze it correctly. its difficult to do with just a photo of yourself. if you are confident and will not compare yourself to other women. i would put my photo next to a thin romantic, dramatic, natural etc. etc. marilyn monroe is a good choice because she is romantic but she is also quite thin. audrey hepburn is a flamboyant gamine and is quite thin. even being underweight, you still have areas of your body where you are carrying more flesh. i am 5' feet, and when i was 85 pounds i still carried all my weight on my butt and thighs. now i am 130 pounds and still, most my weight is on my butt and thighs. you can also take measurements and see where you are largest, bust, waist, and butt. are your hands long and narrow or short and stout? same with your feet. is your body a square or a rectangle. do your cheeks have visible hollow sections? i know when i was 85 pounds i still didn't have hollow cheeks. are your shoulders rounded or square? do you have pointy nose? is the tip of your nose pointy? do you have pointy, round, or square jaw? is your jaw highly defined or is it rounded and subtle? when you look at picture of you (not taken at an angle), draw a straight line from the edge of your shoulder down to the edge of the photo, are you shoulders wider than your hips? do your hips bones protrude from the front of your torso? are your arms or legs thicker at the top compared to the bottom? these are the things you need to look at, not just "well damn, i dont have any flesh"
“The body only gets more rounded...because they are already round.” 👀😳🥺...🐷
This helped me so much! Thank you!
I think I just figured out why I have struggled finding my Kibbe type for years now. He has types for top/bottom narrowness, he has types for top/bottom balance, He has types for top/bottom width ... and most importantly he has types for width in the top only ... but no types for width in the bottom only ... us naturally pear shaped women are left out. Perhaps in the kibbe test of D/E was seperated instead of grouped together ... this would be a new type in the system. I can't speak for everyone but with some yang in my face a lot of yin elements are too much and overwhelming while very yang elements do not account for the extreme yin in my lower body curve. So far some soft classic lines have been the most helpful because they are subdued and balanced. And due to weight gain in the upper body I appear more balanced at this point. Also after much thought the kibbe system could benefit foom making additional clothing recommendations for all the types to accommodate those with a larger bustline.
This reinforces my assumptions about my own type and the types of my loved ones.
Honestly these women all look fine, I don’t see how they’re “overweight”
She specifically spent around a minute or two explaining that the celebrities" photos were used to mirror the resource she uses to describe the body type and that not all were examples of them as overweight . She was very clear about that.
Same. I think she had limited access to pictures of stuff tho
I see most Flamboyant Gamines getting apple-shaped with weight gain (Kelly Osbourne, older Kate Bush, Liza Minelli), the whole torso area and the face gets very full and fleshy...Jennifer Love Hewitt is one of the very rare pear-shaped FG who gains most of her weight only in her lower body.
This was so helpful! Thank you!!!
Yes! I've been waiting for this because I'm overweight and had no idea what type I was.
Great video very helpful ❤️🥰
Thank you very much for your videos! ❤️
Could you please make separate vidoes for every type and talk about hair, style, makeup and everything in just one video? Espasiba
Xx from Iran
This makeup on you is absolutely beautiful!!!! Really suits! xx ❤🇦🇺
Hi Aly, could you please do a video in which you show soft kibble types but as slim/skinny people? (Kind of the opposite of this video)
Thanks for all your work!
This helps a lot. Thanks.
Everything tells me I'm a soft natural! It's so odd seeing famous people with my body type looking good even while bigger, as I always think of my body type as undesirable. But I guess it's just my personal insecurity.
The best video ever, now I know my body type! Thanks 😘
I’ve been overweight since early childhood. After losing some weight and trying to find my type, it has been hard. I was looking through photos and noticed my mom’s body type when she was young compared to how she looked before she passed away almost 20 years ago. My overweight body looks like her overweight body (I’ve lost to her “overweight” size) and I have her bone structures even with how she carried he excess weight. Looking at old photos of me with new eyes is also helping me see my type and what looks good on me.
SUPER CLEAR THANK YOU
Thank you so much! I think I finally have an idea of which types I can be.
"Just do whatever feels nice for you" 🥰
Aly, could please you do a video on what poses would be the best for each body type?
I'm sure now I'm soft dramatic, I couldn't differentiate between it and soft natural, because my cheekbones are actually very soft, the most helpful was video about makeup for different types and I can't deny that sd is so flattering
Ruby Problem I’m stuck between those types too. I seem to have a mix of features from both sides. I have a natural nose and broad shoulders, but a narrow face and long limbs. This video didn’t help, as I lose and gain weight pretty evenly all over. I do lose waist definition when I gain weight though.
@@Keapix yey my twin! I strongly believe there should be a type between those two, style for it would be not too casual as in SN but also not so fancy as in SD, it works the best with me I bet such mix looks wonderful on you as well
@@Keapix btw are you polish/Slavic? If it's you on the picture you look very typical
Ruby Problem it is me. I’m English though. I have been asked that before 😊
Can you do one for underweight? I feel like I'm SD but most SDs are always pictured slightly heavy and with very wide hips which I don't have. Im curious to see what a thinner SD would look like just so I can be sure. Ty!
you gotta go by the flesh. Soft dramatic has a yin skeleton and yang flesh. even very thin women with yang flesh will look more rounded instead of very taught. are your bones long and sharp? better yet, just try on soft dramatic clothes. see if they look good on you. soft dramatic is a very SPECIFIC sort of body. yang bones, yin flesh. you gotta train your eye to see the difference. being thin wont affect the way your flesh lays. i have weighed both 85 and 140 pounds, the flesh on my cheeks has always layed the same way. there was just more or less of it. i have moderate cheeks, cant say they are rounded and cant say they are dry. i am some sort of classic. you might be some sort of natural. take a picture of yourself (not one that makes you look taller by having the photog sit on the floor) and put it next to other soft dramatics and see if you can pick out the yang skeleton and yin flesh. im gonna guess your likely a natural.
This helped SO much. Almost positive I’m soft classic now !
This video is amazing thank you so much
I was in doubt if I was really a dramatic, but this video help me make it more clear, because the hips and the upper thighs are exactly the place where I overweight.
Ohh this is the most difficult one so far! Especially with cultural and genetic differences too. I'm Asian and we gain weight in our own way. Also too young mid 20s to know what my stable weight looks like. Thank you though, I'm paying more attention for now and not drawing any conclusions!
What do you mean Asians gain weight in their own way?
Wow that's a interesting topic!
Do you do some form of body typing consult? Not to confirm a body type ( I'm sure you would have a disclaimer that you only provideinput based on your knowledge not some Magical answer) but to provide you a full body picture like the ones you use for celebrity typing then provide input?
Thank you so much for this aly!!!
I'm 5'9 and sorry I identify myself as Dramatic Classic (DC) even though 5'9 is already considered a long vertical line and tall and the only option is Dramatic, Soft Dramatic, and Flamboyant Natural which is not applicable to my other characteristics. I look a little fleshy for Dramatic (D), Narrow for a Flamboyant Natural (FN)(even I have a broad shoulders), and lanky for Soft Dramatic (SD). Everything in my features (body flesh and facial features) are balanced but my bone structure leans toward to Soft Yang which to be identified as Dramatic Classic (DC).
What about do the bodytypes respond differently to becoming thin or muscular too?
