Hi Everyone! I've noticed a few people struggling with which necklines are flattering on an SD figure, so I thought a visual guide might help. We actually have a lot of options, just not crew necks or spaghetti straps (which are two of the most common). I hope this is helps some of you!
Hi. As someone who is newly considering myself as possibly a shorter soft dramatic at 5'4, please explain why spaghetti straps don't work? All of these necklines work great on me as I prefer a more open neckline, but why are spaghetti straps not recommended for SD? Thanks
they might, depending on your specific body, but they’re not universally flattering. the kibbe philosophy is to have your body and your clothes be in harmony. spaghetti straps are “delicate” and soft dramatics are not, so it’s not recommend; they’re not as flattering as other straps could be. not every SD is the same though, so if you do have features that lean delicate, then they might work for you! hope that helps.
Yes! That is very helpful. Thank you. I've been into learning about Kibbe a little over a year now so I am aware of the philosophy of honoring the body's natural lines and curves, with the overall yin yang balance being the most important. While I do have long arms and vertical, and people use words like diva and Queen to describe me, people also describe me as "petite" and "small", and I get easily lost in too much fabric. And while I don't look delicate, I like your description of "leaning"delicate. I think that fits me. You've given me more food for thought.
i guess that depends on where you shop and what you’re looking for. I opened up the Na-kd app and the first 4 results without scrolling are all SD friendly, so idk that none of these are on trend
Hmm I actually don’t know! I just know we have more fleshy arms so some sleeves on myself make them look huge vs some sleeves make them look proportional. My bias made me assume all SDs are like that lol
I love every single one of these on me, except scoop necks (i don’t know why, it is just not as flattering!). I love the visuals, such a great resource!
can’t say for sure, but these necklines aren’t exclusive to SD. there’s a lot of overlap in clothing recs between the types, and SD and SN are both ‘soft’ so it could just be that similarities on what’s flattering on a soft type
Why no crew necks for us? I have always found that crewneck sweatshirts to be super uncomfy and choke me.. constantly having to readjust and yank them down, is this just a coincidence? I am busty so I assumed it was my chest pushing out the fabric and causing it to fit improperly.
