Understand your unique balance of yin and yang through David Kibbe's revolutionary body type system — the most nuanced approach to personal style.
A holistic approach to understanding your body's natural lines
Unlike fruit shapes or somatotypes, Kibbe's system looks at the complete picture — your bone structure, body flesh, and facial features together.
Every body is a unique blend of yin (soft, rounded, delicate) and yang (sharp, angular, elongated). Your specific blend determines your type.
Knowing your Kibbe type helps you choose clothing that harmonizes with your natural silhouette, creating an effortless, polished look.
