To me Blake as Serena is not the best choice, she talks weirdly and is not really natural with her acting. There could have been a better hot blonde for that role. However Leighton as Blair is outstanding casting ❤

This reminded me of another blond natural/brunette classic duo: Rachel and Monica from Friends!! And the fact that Jennifer originally auditioned for the role of Monica and Courtney for the role of Rachel makes you think how “evidently” out of place each actress would be playing the other character!

Another thing I've noticed about Blair's outfits is that a lot of them really shorten her visual line. She'll have a bunch of detailing and structural width and generally a lot going on around the shoulders, and a skirt with some volume to it that hits around the knee, and a lot of pieces layered in a very composed way using a lot of very intricately textured fabrics that don't really sit close to her body, and it's all so *precise* and so borderline fussy that she'll end up looking very small and very doll-like. It's really incredible work.

This was so weirdly accurate lol I’m always mentioning to people how Serena it’s the coolest girl around in the easiest way possible, it’s truly the effortless it girl vibe. I love Blair, but while Serena translates cool, relaxed and laid back, Blair always brings the anxiety, the overdoing/thinking and seems withdrawn. I’ve been like Blair my whole entire life, wanting to seem cool but always failing so badly and automatically turning into this overly organized, methodic and controlling person that Blair also is. So I guess this is where my obsession over Serena comes from, forever dreaming of being like her. That’s pretty noticeable at the end of the show, where Blair kinda steals the spotlight, and that only happens because she’s so mature and confident, she can be her own person instead of living the shadow of Serena. She’s not trying to give Serena’s vibe, she’s just being who she is, and that’s where she stole people’s hearts. For me, I’m still obsessed over Serena, but I can truly see what people love about Blair. And I love her too!!

as a flamboyant gamine (i think) this was so interesting because I realized that I have often done the opposite of Blair in the past and tried to wear classic styles that just do not work and make me look boring and dry.

@EbonyPenmarks
@EbonyPenmarks Рік тому
I think when Salma and Penelope have their “femme fatale” looks, there is still something in their underlying essence that stays true to their kibble types. Salma still looks curvy and feminine while Penelope is slightly “edgier”. In fact, there are rumours that director Pedro Almodovar requested Cruz to wear a butt pad for some of her roles which makes sense because Almodovar has casted Cruz for a wide range characters from innocent characters to sultry characters

Does Kibbe analyze men's body types too? I'm thinking about Boreanaz as Angel and Marsters as Spike on the show Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Angel and Spike wore similar styles, favoring long leather jackets, but on Boreanaz it looked cool but not scary, which fit his "vampire with a soul" character, whereas on Marsters it looked edgy, which fit his character.

You once said that regardless of whether you increase or decrease your weight your body type doesn’t change, can you explain this in more detail? Just because for example a drastic increase in weight logically changes the way you carry yourself, it changes the way you sit, stand, dress yourself etc. angles in your structure change and vice versa if you lost weight.
@sunshinesmile94
@sunshinesmile94 Рік тому
It will not change you from an apple to an hourglass. Or a rectangle to an hourglass or an apple to a pear. Of course if you lose weight to a certain extent you will look better and carry yourself better and clothes will hang better, but you cannot manufacture curves where curves do not naturally exist. You can fake it and camouflage it with clothing and accessories (I.e. Belts) to balance out your proportions and give the illusion... However if you are straight up and down without hips or a defined waist, that will fundamentally not change regardless of weight loss. If you face narrow shoulders and very wide hips, no amount of weight change will alter your shoulder width
@lauragoreni3020
@lauragoreni3020 Рік тому
What she means is about proportions. For example, I have larger hips and a smaller waist proportionally, so at whatever weight I am enhancing the waist will usually look better for me. I fluctuated more or less 10 kg, I gained weight but my proportions are more or less the same, even though I am now 2+ sizes up.Women who, for example, have larger shoulders keep the larger shoulder at any weight, so of course while the fat percentage changes, your overall bone structure doesn't.

seconding the commentor above me when i was reading up on Kibbe, a lot of type explanations actually included information about the way different types tend to carry fat and muscle, which i've found to be accurate e.g. personally as an SD, my type is a lot more obvious in photos where i was fat, and photos where i had a lot more of both fat and muscle, and more difficult to identify in photos where i was thin with less of both - but ultimately? i'm still tall/big either way, my 'thin' body still carries fat on my limbs in a way that shows before my bones do, my shoulders/width are larger than a shorter person but aren't significant enough relative to my height to give me an FN frame, my curves break pure Dramatic lines it was difficult to wrap my head around because dressing SD when my body is carrying a lot more fat is SO much easier, but waist emphasis is important at every weight for me even when my natural waist isn't as obvious; open necklines or higher dramatic necklines are flattering at every weight for me; small frilly details are out of proportion; 'comfy' and 'undone' doesn't look effortless on me, 'tidy' and 'polished' ironically looks more effortless; i'm able to wear statement jewellery without being overpowered, delicate jewellery is out of synch for me; statement styles in general are easy for me to carry off; shiny or luxurious looking fabrics are more harmonious for me and 'natural'/scruffy/relaxed fabrics are incongruent, etc. my outfits *are* different at different weights because matching my body's exact vibe at that point in time looks different, but specific items of clothing aren't specific Types, *it's a lot more abstract than that* there are periods of my life where i was fatter and fought dressing SD, but that was the result of fatphobia, i was told to hide my body and avoid so much of what actually looks harmonious for an SD, i was being taught to dress like an FN, but that's all conditioned changes, not inherent yes i was also physically moving differently because my body was a different shape, and my Dramatic and Soft energies were coming through in different forms and to different degrees, but the foundation was still SD &even when my weight temporarily dropped dangerously low due to medical reasons? i didn't magically become a Dramatic even with *very* visible bones and a gaunt face and dangerously low body fat, i looked sick because i was obviously very visibly sick so no outfit looked as harmonious, but all the foundational SD principles still applied in practice (i knew about this system at the time so actively experimented with the little energy i had lmao) mine's probably easier to prove because my height limits me to 3 types though

I've just remembered Sandra Oh's outfits in Killing Eve. She was looking, dare I say, elegant in her plain office clothes. But on anyone else these cardigans, loose fitting trousers and drab colours would look so horrible. Her voluminous curls and general appearance make the look work.

I feel like Serena and blare are untouchable in different ways. Serena is so effortlessly perfect that u know u can never recreate it and can never be her. You can be blare if u had enough money or enough motivation, but there’s nothing that can achieve Serena’s aura

Serena’s character was messy that’s why her style was also messy while Blair’s character was more like she wanted to be perfect and tries harder to achieve her goals which we can see in her styles.

I always loved Blair more as a character, Serena just seemed really unlikeable to me. But style wise, I remember taking inspiration from both when the show first came out. I loved Blair's silhouettes but Serena's gold and sequinned fabrics. And it kind of worked on me. I think I'm either a gamine with some classic / natural essence or a classic with a unusually irregular bone structure lol

@@t1m513 Personally I liked how Blair was a bitch but never failed to own up to it. She told people that she could and would ruin their lives, it wasn't something she hid from others. She needed to work really hard to build up and maintain her reputation/influence , because people were always out to bring her down. The problem I found with Serena was that the writers tried too hard to make her likable. She was handed things too easily in my opinion, there was never really a situation where she truly struggled and grew as a result. Plus after the first few seasons the plot just became repetitive; usually with Serena in some sort of trouble as a result of her past or her current fling, where in the end either Blair/Nate/Chuck (or all 3) would have to help her rectify the situation.

@@t1m513 I believe she's more likable than Serena because Serena never admits her privilege. It's really exhausting watching some priviliged nepo baby acts like "she's one of us". And most common thing she says for every problem she and her lifestyle caused is "Not my fault." like yeah babe it's your fault.

Good that you poited out that Blair doesn't look effortless. I stared thinking about that throughout your video. Why is Blair not that natural in her style, even tho it's chic and stylish af. And as you talk about Gibbe body types, I started to think it's because you said she is soft classic AND they clothed her more like gamine. And that's what you ended up bringing up too. So interesting!! Ofc there has to be reasons behind it. Blair is a character that wants to be more than anyone else. She has to have the trends first (even if they don't suit her), over the top so she doesn't leave unrecognized. She wants attention. I think that is one reason why they styles her that way. Then sometimes there are those more classical combos that are more suitable for her, and even if slightly over the top, they still complement her.

This was really interesting. I’m a soft gamine and growing up, esp as a teen, I always wanted to look effortless and like I’d just thrown something on and to pull off those loose shapes, and it just never worked. Would be v interested in seeing a comparison like this of Summer and Marissa on The OC, who I think present quite similarly to Blair/Serena. Also, just a little note wrt the beginning of the video - we’re unfortunately still very much mid-pandemic, not post (as much as the media would like to portray differently).

@@cb9825 yeah I agree with that. I think of Rihanna and Lady Gaga too and know that they can pull off almost anything even if it doesn’t look stereotypically good on them. I think that’s what it is too. It’s the fact that they do looks for the sake of fashion. Fashion isn’t always about looking pretty or sexy, it’s about executing a good look. But some celebrities’ whole brand is to look sexy so to see them in styles that don’t match their body type can be unflattering.
