these are all broad shouldered and strong framed women…because they’re Yang dominant!
(…i’d argue most verified women in both D types especially pure dramatics it seems, have broad shoulders…i ran out of gallery room making this lol)
Slide 1: Joan Blondell in 'There is always a woman' - the closest I feel to my own brand of SN, and her banter with Melvyn Douglas (FN?) is hilarious.
Slide 2: Carole Lombard in 'Nothing Sacred' - she's just so great! Funny, sexy, sarcastic.
Slide 3: Betty Grable in 'How to marry a millionaire' (center, with verified R Marylin Monroe on the left and verified D Lauren Bacall on the right - highly recommend to see all 3 together! I love this pic of them).

i think she looks great! pixie hair + perfect skirt length + fun pattern with lots of small details. what do you think? if you're curious, the dress is "emiliana" by house of cb.
(5'4" is 163 cm)
I've known about kibbe since 2019 (took a lot of breaks from it though) and I still haven't confidently figured out my type. I really blame a big part of it on my height.
Anyone else relate?
What is Victoria’s body type from Corpse Bride? Ive been wondering about this for months!
Greetings to the Kibbe community! I have noticed the soft natural subreddit seems to be currently hanging in limbo, suddenly inactive as of roughly 150 days ago, but it's not due to lack of demand.
As I'm sure a plethora of others have too, I've had a lot of ideas and questions pertaining specifically to my ID with suddenly no place to put it.
While this sub is an amazing community of support, its meant as a larger body for all Kibbe IDs to collect and discuss; spamming specific SN type/question/idea posts is not the sole purpose of this sub. The solution is clear: The soft natural community needs to have their place of gathering restored, if possible. If not, a new sub could potentially be created.
I humbly ask if there is anybody here who has an idea/any authority on how to restore the r/softnaturals sub?
Thank you!
Just curious if anyone has examples of celebrities who are (at least suspected) SC who are shorter? I feel like most that I see are very average height but I’m hoping to find some examples who are 5’4” or under. Thanks!
I know Kibbe isn’t based on ethnicity, and that every Image ID can occur in every population. But I was wondering whether anyone has noticed differences in the relative frequency of certain IDs across countries.
I recently learned that auto vertical starts at 5’6 regardless of country. So while the threshold itself doesn’t change, it seems like countries with taller average female heights would naturally have a higher % of vertical types (D, SD, FN).
Beyond height, I imagine genetics could also influence the distribution of bone structure and proportions. I’m American and feel like I see a lot of Naturals (especially FN and SN) here, but I’m of Chinese descent and I feel like Dramatics, Classics, and Gamines are more common in China proper. I myself am a Dramatic. Although I am tall, I still have a petite/narrow frame which is common amongst East Asians.
Has Kibbe ever commented on this, and has anyone else noticed these patterns?
Not sure if this is appropriate for a post, but I think it's helpful
The amount of dms I've recieved from lurking men after posting on kibbe related reddits (not this one in particular) asking about my body is disgusting. If you're thinking about posting here or on reddits for specific IDs, you may benefit from turning dms off!
You deserve to stay safe and comfortable ladies!!
guysss help me out about styling only. I'm not asking to be typed here. I've never been typed before but based on posts I've seen so far in different communities, I highly suspect I'm an FG. but I've never seen anyone talking about this type wearing such combination as skinny jeans + high boots. the advice is usually for fg to wear loose bottoms. i'm 4'8 and I dont know if that makes a difference too. Anyway i hope its not a dumb question. 😭
Hi!
I’ve been trying to figure out my kibbe for the past 5 years. I gain and lose weight proportionally, have always had curves and I’m 5’3. My curves are not super enunciated but it’s there. I’m always tripped up bc it seems like even at my most athletic I have a layer of fat over my body, even though my facial features and upper body are mostly angular.
I’ve narrowed down to SD and TR, but they’re really different in styling so how can I really tell?
Thank you🫶🏻
From what I understand, women that are 5'6+ have automatic vertical, therefore they can only be vertical types such as D, SD, and FN. But there doesn’t seem to be an equivalent cutoff for men.
Is there a reason for this difference? Is it because men’s width (shoulders/frame) can offset vertical more visually, or just that Kibbe never formalized male height limits?
Do you think men should have an AV cutoff, and at what point? Would love to hear people's thoughts!
The last post (sorry for the spam today) is some outfit photos I had saved of SJP (mostly outside of SaTC) that showcased how well she embodies both the nonchalant and showstopping elements of FN in her looks. I noticed that she doesn't shy away from relaxed elements, but she knows her proportions so well that they they work beautifully without looking too boho or 70s hippie, which is a big wrongful stereotype with the N fam. I also love her 90s looks, the minimalism and strapless silhouettes looked awesome on her.
Because I don’t want to spend a ton of money on more clothes, I’m trying to work with what I have, which isn’t much, but I have a fav top as you can see XD The blue one in the second last pic is also really cute with the layered necklaces, but I don’t have a full body pic with that. The last outfit is maybe not 100% FG line, but I do like the shorts and the pattern on the blouse🥰
This second post is about Gena Rowlands, because I'm fascinated by the combination of quietness/discreetness and moody intensity that she had. It was very well shown in the film Gloria, that there was something subtly dangerous underneath the quiet waters. I also just love her features, she had an amazing look, imo. There are a lot of publicity photos from when she was in her older years, and she was always impeccable in her appearance, literally not a hair out of place, which is the type of look that classic shine in. She also could work some bolder elements with ease, she once wore a long cape over a dress for the Oscars which looked fabulous on her.
