I can see this is a draft article about the Kibbe body type system. What would you like me to do with it? For example:
- Edit or improve the writing
- Fix specific sections
- Restructure the content
- Add or remove sections
- Something else
Let me know what changes you’re looking for.
Editor’s Note
Eight years of watching women take this test, and the pattern I keep seeing is this: the readers who nail their type on the first try are almost never the ones who spent the longest time analyzing photos — they’re the ones who stopped looking at individual features and started reading the overall *impression* their body makes in a single glance. That’s the thing pictures can’t fully teach you, because a photograph flattens the very dimensional quality Kibbe is actually measuring. Your bone structure has weight and presence in three-dimensional space that a mirror selfie genuinely distorts. So before you commit to a result, I’d ask you to try this: stand across the room from a full-length mirror and look at yourself the way you’d look at a stranger. What’s the first word that comes to mind?
Okay so I literally stood in front of my mirror for 45 minutes doing this after reading — totally worth it. I’m in Columbus and had my friend take photos from different angles because apparently I’ve been dressing for the wrong type for YEARS. The bit about bone structure vs. flesh really clicked for me. My one takeaway: I’m going to stop buying structured blazers and lean into softer fabrics. Quick question though — does height actually change how you read your lines, or is it more about proportins?
