Kibbe doesn't tell you to hide body parts, or try to be thinner, but instead stresses the beauty of each woman's unique shape.

Even more, it's based on a positive framework. While the chosen nomenclature makes me shudder, I appreciate the nuance and thoughtfulness in the method. His system mixes bone structure (what he calls Yin) and overall softness/musculature (called Yang, unsurprisingly) to make its recommendations.

Instead of lumping all women into silly fruit-shaped categories-apple shapes, pear shapes, kumquat shapes-or treating plus size women as if they're all built exactly the same, he instead based his guidelines on how humans are actually built. Kibbe's method, however, struck a chord with me. As soon as someone tells me what I should wear, my mind starts wandering to explosive devices and creative ways to burn civilization to the ground. People love telling women what we can't wear, or what would be more flattering on us. It was brought to my attention by the lovely Gillian, of Crafting a Rainbow, who recently went down this rabbit hole herself. Style systems normally drive me crazy. The Kibbe "System" is a rather obscure set of personal style rules from the 1980's, which is having a small renaissance on YouTube and wardrobe planning forums across the internet. Or, rather, David Kibbe's Metamorphosis System. It would be understandable, if you chose to watch a Hallmark Christmas movie, instead. Since this is my blog and my personal style crisis, however, I'm going with it. It's also going to be: self-indulgent, extremely nerdy, and possibly include a bit of navel gazing. This is going to be long post, so you may want to get a cup of tea. Tonight, I don't want to share my latest project (which is good, because it's a white sweater that I promptly spilled spaghetti sauce on), but instead take a deep dive into personal style and the philosophy of dress.

It just means I have a large, angular bone structure with voluptuous curves on top of it. A lot of the suggestions need to be taken with a grain of salt, whether because of impracticality or a decidedly 1980's sensibility, but others are proving pretty insightful.Īccording to Kibbe, I'm a "Soft Dramatic." He goes into the concepts of Yin/Yang and starts getting florid in his descriptors, but that's all a bit saccharine for me. Shifting my lens-thinking about my body in terms of bone structure and softness, not just measurements-is altering how I think about clothing. While Kibbe is a deeply flawed system, it's also a useful jumping off point for these changes. Today, I thought we'd go further into the actual nuts and bolts of my plans. I'm not alone in this rabbit hole, it seems! Your interest in this process-and the fact that anyone still reads my sadly neglected blog-took me by surprise.
