Physical Features of a Romantic
Soft, rounded body throughout with delicate bone structure. Full curves, rounded shoulders, lush bust and hips. Completely soft facial features—rounded jawline, soft nose, full lips, rounded eyes, plush cheeks. Pure softness everywhere.
Note: Modern Kibbe emphasizes overall line, silhouette, and how fabric drapes on the body rather than checking off individual features. These physical descriptions serve as general guides to understand each type's accommodation needs (vertical, width, curve, petite), not as strict checklists. Your Kibbe type is about what your body needs in clothing, not matching every listed trait.

Romantic Sketch Lines
Understanding your Kibbe type starts with analyzing your body's natural lines. Our 3D sketch line process reveals the unique bone structure and flesh distribution that defines the Romantic silhouette.
Our Process: We use advanced 3D body scanning technology combined with AI-powered line tracing to create accurate sketch lines. This helps our system accurately measure your proportions and visualize if your dominant element contains vertical or curve, as well as your additional elements, that combined, create your Kibbe type.

3D Body Mesh
Using advanced 3D body scanning, we generate a precise mesh model that captures the exact body geometry and proportions.
Sketch Lines
The mesh is traced into clean contour lines that highlight the key features: shoulder slope, waist definition, and hip curves.
Silhouette Description
You need an outline that is soft, allowing the curves to be accommodated. When one is looking at you, the eye needs to travel around both curves. It can either skim the body (not too tight) or flow outward. Fluidity is important. Nothing stiff.
Key Shapes
- •Curve + Double Curve combination
- •Two stacked ellipses with waist indentation
- •Most pronounced curves of all types
- •Pure yin softness in the outline
- •Soft, rounded edges throughout
Silhouette Requirements
Primary
Soft outline accommodating double curves
Eye Movement
Around both curves (bust and hips)
Flow Direction
Can skim or flow outward, always fluid
Body Relation
Soft, never stiff or tight
Fabric Flow
The imaginary fabric is pushed out dramatically at both bust and hips, creating two distinct ellipses (ovals) stacked on top of each other with a definite indentation between.
Modern Method: Sketching and Cloth Flow is the most modern method of discovering your Kibbe Image Identity, as written by David Kibbe in his Power of Style (2024) book. Learn more about the sketching approach

Your Colors Depend on Your Season
