I am including their heights (in inches) so you can see that Romantics aren’t just short women, they can be those of medium stature as well. These are the celebrities found in the book and later verified by Kibbe. The Kibbe Romantic will always need to dress their curves, and will not have to accommodate additional vertical, width, or balance. It is an overall look and way of accommodating your God-given bone structure and flesh type. REMINDER: No one element defines your image ID. TIME CHANGES US ALL, AND I THINK IT’S IMPORTANT TO SEE EXAMPLES THAT MORE CLOSELY RESEMBLE THE AVERAGE WOMAN. MANY OF THE EXAMPLES SEEN ARE OF YOUNG WOMEN AT THEIR LOWEST WEIGHT.
TRUE AUTUMN SOFT GAMINE FULL
The face also gets very full and fleshy.ĭISCLAIMER: NONE OF THESE WOMEN ARE HEAVY AND WE ARE NOT FAT SHAMING. The Romantic type tends to gain everywhere, no area being left untouched. Understanding how adipose tissue congregates can be helpful when the bone structure is less obvious. One of the hardest parts of typing yourself occurs when you are not at an ideal weight. They can be warm or cool, high contrast or low. Romantics usually have luminescent skin, and may have an ethereal look to them. It can be either thin and wispy, or thick with waves or curls. The Romantic has luscious hair as well, often soft and quite luxurious.
The lips are full and sensual and the cheeks are round and apple shaped. The facial features of the Romantic are soft and lush.Įyes are very round, large and open looking. The hands and feet are small in proportion to the rest of the body, but also may be slightly wide.įacial BONES are delicate: small, again slight width (this may appear in the nose, cheekbones, or jawline and lead the individual to assume Natural family width, not so). The line from neck to shoulder cap forms a definite curve when doing a line drawing. The shoulders are round and noticeably sloped. The bone are small and delicate, but may be slightly wide. Bone Structureīone structure includes the body and the face (remember from the test that it is rare for the facial bones to NOT match the body bones). A small waist and “bouncy” flesh on the arms and legs. The body of a Romantic is soft, voluptuous, curvy, and tends toward an hourglass shape. Body Typeīody type refers to the overall impression of the body, including some flesh and some bone structure. I would say that 5’7″ is a hard stop at that’s the tallest romantic on the list, although at that height soft dramatic is more likely. You’ll notice, however, that there are celebrities above this type (Beyonce at 5’7″) but these celebrities are often debated (although supposedly verified by Kibbe). It is not the most noticeable thing, as in the Gamine family, but the upper height limit for the Romantic type is 5’6″. The Romantic family is automatically petite in the Kibbe world. I am summarizing the information in the book with addendums gathered from all over. These overall themes exist in the Romantic body, but don’t throw out the whole type because you don’t fit perfectly in every category.
It is the overall dominance of soft yin and curves that makes a Kibbe Romantic.

TRUE AUTUMN SOFT GAMINE SERIES
In this series you’ll find style guides for the following 10 current image id’s. In recent years the 3 pure types of natural, classic, and gamine have been discarded. In the original book (out of print and pricey, but I own it) you’ll find there are 13 different types. The quiz found in the book is no longer considered the standard for typing, and you can read more about that in this post. These are based primarily on body type, including bone structure, flesh composition, and facial bones and features. The Kibbe typology is based upon his book Metamorphosis (1987) which describes 13 different type of styles/types/identities.
