Why I Look Bad in Everything I Wear? How to Dress for Your BODY SHAPE | 96 Body Shape Type Indicator

[@chickchickduck4028]

Thank you dear peachie. You may not know, but you actually saved my life. I'm 15, and Nigerian, and had always been on the larger side. According to Nigerian beauty standards I look appealing (thick thighs and larger boobs) but I started watching Kpop at age 11 and I constantly compared my figure to all the pretty men and women there. I have always experienced seasonal depression since I was a child, and I as I grew older and started puberty I disassociated a lot envisioning myself out of my body due to how much I hated it. I had no peace, and I tried so many home remedies (because skincare is expensive here) and diets to "fix" myself that I hurt myself multiple times. Finding your channel randomly was a breath of fresh air. You thought me how to make things work for myself and not bother how to fit into a standard. I'm super grateful, that now I can look into the mirror and see myself and not an imposter. Thank you for everything. My heart is ever grateful. May God bless you and everyone you love!!!

[@katgreer6113]

Everything you said we literally have I'm common. Like I'm Nigerian and also started watching kpop at 11 or 10 and compared my body to kpop girls and I still do. I have no desire to fit the Nigerian beauty standards.

You're blessed with your own beauty, and you're only 15! You fit in with the American beauty standards but guys at your age don't always know how to treat a girl (I'm American and I experienced it) A lot of Kpop stars are trying to fit in with the American beauty standards too now and it's kind of sad. I think one day we need to realize that everything is beautiful

This video made me realize why some shirts make me want to cry. I have a very masculine body with super broad shoulders, narrow hips, smaller chest and butt, and a muscular physique. If I wear shirts with low, broad necklines, I feel elegant and glamorous. If I wear anything with a crew neck--especially if it's a tighter shirt--I literally look like a boy. I'm gonna mercilessly cull my closet and get rid of everything that makes me self conscious. Thank you so much for this video, peachie!

[@blrryanii_]

Wow I wished I had a very masculine body type :') Mine leans more towards fem and I'm insecure about that as a transmasc person (and yes ik that this video is more targeted towards girls/women but I sometimes like to dress feminine)

[@PotterMarauder]

Same here. I am tall with broad shoulders and an athletic body. If I try to wear delicate-looking clothes, like spaghetti straps, I look absolutely ridiculous. Like a She-Hulk 😂. Most clothing is not made for our large frames. (I stick with sleeves, high necklines, and thick straps if I wear a tank top.)

Its kind of depressing all of these stylings are just trying to recreate an hourglass. Those with less prominent waist need to draw attention and those with a big tummy need to hide it in order to look good in clothes? Wear what you want ladies, lots of people think what others find unattractive is beautiful. You dont need to hide your tummy or fake a shape.

I mean it doesn't say you have to do it, it says for those who specifically want to minimize or maximize certain areas. I'm sure people know they can wear what they want, that's basically what this video is. There's nothing wrong with wanting to de-emphasize or emphasize certain features.

[@queenofthepierats]

Over the years, I've learned a lot about dressing my odd figure, but it's taken a lot of research and time. I'm glad to see a video that can help people who struggle with the same thing! I've got a prominent belly that is a B shape when you ignore my bust; I've got a big bust, big butt and hips, and big/wide shoulders. I'm short (5'2") and also have a very short torso, so high waist pants look awful on me. I've also got wide calves and small feet, and I lean toward soft fabrics (knits) because it's a texture and comfort thing. I recently picked up sewing in order to make clothes that fit how I want, so this video was a really nice reminder. :)

[@elisa4620]

I honestly think this is the best body type system I have ever seen (not that I've seen that many but still XD)! I really love how comprehensive and "open-minded" this masterclass is! I love how you're not telling people how to wear clothes to achieve some arbitrary "beauty ideal"; but instead you're giving practical advices on how clothes (cut, fabrics, colors, etc.) work and will visually impact the body shape so people can make informed decisions based on THEIR personal preferences. You also break down everything, with clear explanations, visuals, and an impressive attention to details. The only thing it doesn't take into account is the overall heigh of a person and their vertical proportions. Or maybe I missed it from the video. I suspect people with the same body type but different heigh and vertical proportions might have different "challenges" when it come to clothing. For instance, I'm 4"11 and I have a shorter torso (around 1/3 torso, 2/3 bottom half) that will affect the overall visual aspect of clothing on my body differently than someone who is 5"3 or 6". You're one to something fantastic. You could probably develop it further by making one video for each specific body part, with more advices and more visual exemples/explanations. If you feel like it, of course. Congratulations and thank you PS: according to your system I'm a petite XSn or ASn. I already knew several of your tips but I still learned some and this comes from experience after YEARS of trials and errors. It's great to get some validation but also to learn more and to know some people won't have to struggle as much :)

Honestly this was super helpful, and I like the breakdown for the general body parts. I find the Kibbe system too restrictive because it doesn't take into account bellies and waists and hips. A lot of the other systems are about fitting your body into a set "Type" based on what's closest, but I found this was really great for practical tips on how to dress specific body parts. I also found that I was already using your recommendations intuitively, and it felt affirming to hear that I do, actually, already know how to dress my body. Great video! ♥

[@user-iw4yl7fp9p]

It does address hips. It doesn’t address belly because it’s about embracing your shape at any size rather than downplaying it, and waist is taken care of when you dress for your other accommodations

[@rebecca31d224]

Chunkier shoes can make calves appear smaller by comparrison. Especially if you have smaller feet (which could make normal size calves/ankles appear bigger). A-shapes & dark bottoms~ I think it's flexible. For example, just make sure your top color is the same or lighter than the bottoms, it's not that you have to wear only super dark washes to balance out your figure ♡

[@indecisive-fan]

Exactly this! I have big calves, and the recent chunky shoe trend has been amazing. Low profile shoes (like vans and ballet flats) made my small feet look tiny and my calves looking giant in comparison. Now I only wear platform shoes that also help me in the vertical department XD

[@chiripaxa]

This is a masterpiece. It took so much money and time for me (a petite girl with narrow hips wide shoulders) to finda wide flared pants and cut tops is a go to.

so helpful compared to the typical body shapes which only take the front into consideration. was always told growing up that I was curvy and my mom always told me my shoulders were broad! but it turns out, from the front, I’m more of a rectangle or barely an hourglass. with this system, I found out I’m an H (or almost an X) with normal shoulders but also dB! so it gives an accurate representation of the evenness (from the front) but the curve from the side which absolutely needs accommodating when buying clothes lol

[@Anika24]

it's good to finally have a type that i somewhat fit into, but at the same time, as someone without a defined waist, i'm so tired of having "define the waist" as the main tip... i've been wearing clothes that kind of makes the waist smaller, but at the price of discomfort. trying to define a waist that's not really there is exhausting, and just leads to pushing myself towards a body that i don't have.

[@Devi-gn2cs]

Trying to define a waist that isn't there is indeed counterproductive. Especially if the outfit creates a horizontal line at the waist: the waist will appear even wider. Instead, wear clothing that naturally follow the lines of your body. You will look more elegant this way.

Tip to measure how heads tall u are: measure your head size (not face only, the head length) and multiply to 8, if it doesn't match with your height try multiplying to 7.5 or 9, maybe u are shorter or taller than 8 heads tall ( if it's exactly your height or like 1-2cm away it's the one for u )

Thanks for another comprehensive body proportion styling video! I’m an A-S-n when not bloated and an A-dB-n when bloated. I have been gaining weight and unsure of how to dress my new body shape. I realized I can wear crew neck tops as long as they’re drop shoulder or have a cut-out around the bust. And I’ve been right to avoid high necks and turtlenecks! I’m curious about the wide leg denim, though. I actually haven’t purchased jeans in over a year, but I have tried some on and they never fit over my butt or leave a big gap when they do. The v-curve yoke and waistband tips are a lifesaver! But as for the wide leg, I feel like straight cut pants that lean more tapered when actually worn would accentuate my big thighs. I have normal calves and a big bust so have been eyeing wide leg cuts to balance things out. I think trouser-wide jeans will still be okay, but extra wide will be a little too much. Hwasa is a great example of how wide leg jeans can still flatter A shape if it’s moderate and there’s balance on top. I also learned flare is a horrible cut on me. 😅

[@barbiebunnybakery1896]

I’m an A/X ( depending on my current weight and bust size)- S with T shoulders. I might be biased towards measuring because I went to uni for costuming but I still think it’s super helpful to understand your proportions and also clothing sizes. Usually mass measuring takes place about every 10 years or so and sizes are determined by that ( there’s also a thing called vanity sizing where companies just call a size 12 an 8 to make people feel better in their clothing). Companies based in different countries will have different sizes based on different people which is one reason why you might need to size up or down in certain brands. Knowing that you might have a slightly longer hip or wider shoulders than the average of people ( not even the average person… it’s more like measuring 100 000 people and taking the average measurements for construction. It doesn’t even mean that one single person in that group has those measurements 😅) can help you find cuts that are more suited to your body. Also, sizes where meant to construct a base garment that would generally fit and could then be altered by you or a seamstress/tailor to perfectly fit your body 🤗 there are in theory sizes for tall-average- petit and in all of those wide hips- regular hips - narrow hips… the fact, that we obviously don’t have those is one reason why it’s so hard to find jeans 😂🤣😂🤣

Love how detailed and pretty everything looks! But I would say that the shoulders instead of bust indicate your body shape. You could have a small bust and broad shoulders and be an hourglass. You can also have a big bust and be a pear figure. So I would say the original 5 body types are accurate but each body types bust, butt and waist might differ in size! There are also people with low hips & high hips/waist.

As a woman with broad shoulders but not much bust, most of the hourglass advice henched on accentuating my cleavage. Well, there's not much to accentuate. And the pear advance was how to broaden your shoulders, which is also not what I need. So until there's a 6th athletic body type added, the 5 just won't do it.

They literally stick out which prevents me from wearing anything tight or close fitting which sucks, and my hip-dips don't help that either 😭and I'm quite tall at 5'8 which makes finding dresses and pants difficult haha

[@user-is7xs1mr9y]

I'm also 5'8 and I really feel your pain regarding the length of pants, dresses and also sleeves lol. In my case I'm flat chested, so pretty much anything in my size with a defined bust will be HUGE on me, I could fit snacks in there if I wanted to lol.

[@kime5776]

Honestly my hip bones show too and I actually love it, I don't think it looks bad at all :)

[@caityvalentine]

[@nimedhel09]

In the last few years, I gained quite a bit of weight due to several things (including pregnancy changing my body, age, and some medications for health conditions), and since then I've been finding it hard to style my clothes in a way that I found flattering, so this guide is interesting, as it takes into account the side view of the body too. According to it, my current body shape would be X-dB and normal shoulders. The tips are interesting and comprehensive, so thank you for that.

[@BlueJeans-mf6mx]

I see people complaining in the comments but you've literally saved me with pants tips! I have wide hips and bottoms are so difficult to pick and always feel weird on my legs. Jeans especially feel small, suffocating, and with no room for my belly. This is LIFE CHANGING!!!

[@soopyfly]

I got H-I-n. I thought I had T or normal shoulders at first, but after listening to the clothing recommendations I realized I have the petite type n shoulders. Makes sense since I'm just kind of small all over. I'm glad to hear I was right on the money wearing A-line, flared stuff, and just generally things that give me waist definition.

[@romycullen17]

I'm also small all over and can't decide of I'm a HIT or HIn!

[@janaris97]

I found out I’m HIn too and because I don’t have any prominent features to show I always liked wearing puff tops/dresses and off shoulders to highlight the shoulders and collar bone. I also prefer high waited clothes

[@ycwnzn]

I got H-I-T but the thing is my body changes from H to X and X to H depending on how lazy and active I am...

[@beaniies]

I’ve got n and I’m tall, I’m 175cm.

[@soopyfly]

@@Unknown-probably stand up straight and look into a mirror. If your shoulders and collar bones (your collar bones are attached to ur shoulders) make a straight line when they’re back then you have the T shape. Sloped shoulders will droop a bit even if youre standing up straight.

[@Infinatetoast]

Style has never made sense to me until seeing this! Its literally the best style advice I have ever found! Thank you so so much 🙏

[@MJ-98]

I really like this video, very detailed. I think however it would be good to use "emphasize" and "deemphasize" or "show off" and "minimize" (or similar language) instead of "do" and "don't," or "suitable" and "unsuitable." Sometimes people may want to emphasize parts of their body or not, depending. For example, I have large shoulders and sometimes I really like to show them off and sometimes not, but being told clothing is "unsuitable" makes them seem like they're a bad thing. Just semantics! I understand the intention of the video.

[@BatRabbit]

Thought something was wrong with me because I have characteristics of a pear and an hourglass, trying on outfits it literally a pain as I've tried both pear and hourglass, but with this you helped me sooo much, don't feel as unnatural anymore and can really hone in based off specifics now, bless peachie and thank you :)

[@correoordinario2010]

4:31 not true. For Policleto, the ideal canon was 7 heads long body. It was a pair of centuries later, during the Helenistic period, that it was changed to 7,5 heads proportion. Saying that the ideal body is 8 heads proportion and having 7,5 is shorter, is going against 90% of the population. When greeks loved beauty as something just in the middle of everything.

[@TheVip113]

I'm an H-b-normal shoulder. Found a lot of useful tips in this video. Thank you Dear Peachie!

[@wildcatste]

I’m the same! This has been really eye opening

[@vickywitton1008]

This is very extensive, but also VERY complicated! It has taught me to trust my own judgement and not just go with what I think is fashionable though

[@ggomi4551]

I don't really think body shape is the only thing that matters. It depends on your face and the type of person you are as well. I'd say I have broad shoulders, but I love turtlenecks. And I've gotten the most compliments wearing them. I feel like the things that make me look more masculine things make me more attractive.

[@tiramishiu]

thank you for working so hard to get this video to us !! we really appreciate it🥹💓 we love you!!💌🌷✨

[@Dan3aRos4i]

This kept me with my eyes on the screen... So much happened in just one chapter. Please, continue!

[@naomitudon]

I learned a looot about my body with this video. For a very long time I assumed my body shape with the pear, square, etc. guide, but clothes still felt awkward lol I love how specific this was, even with the belly details that is one of my main issues. 😅 Now I'll pay more attention on how to enhance certain parts of my body that make me feel confident. 🖤

[@camillef8698]

Just putting my personal notes here as a reminder, you can ignore this comment :) And thank you dear peachie for this comprehensive video, there's a lot more I understand about my body now 1- Body proportion I'm in the average for the ideal proportion (my body is 7.5 to 8 heads) --> Keep in mind the overall ratio to divide the body when dressing up : 1/3 on the top and 2/3 on the bottom I'm not petite so no need to really try to get a longer and leaner figure. 2- Front *H* category (waistline less prominent than X shape). 3- Side *I* category (my belly is not at the level of my chest, and visually in the photos I don't feel like my chest is protruded) BUT it could be *P* because I take at least two sizes above for my chest compared to my general clothing size. OR B after I have taken a meal. 4- Shoulders *n* shaped shoulders, but more like sloped than narrow shoulders (tired effect with some clothes) --> torso < bottom = HIn or HPn whether I consider I have a smaller or bigger chest for my overall size *TIPS TO ENHANCE THIS BODY SHAPE* _Sloped shoulders_ : puff, cap and flutter sleeves are great to make them look broader (pads at the shoulders also help) , off-the-shoulder and structured shapes are also very cool ; make sure shoulder seams are leaning inwards ; avoid loose cutting and oversized, as well as too light fabric (that don't hold shape) and no-seam ; maybe choose structured coats with small collars. _Waist less prominent_ : focus on defining the waist, that add curves = high waisted (no low rise !) with straight or wide leg cut, A-line, pleated skirts (no tight fitting long skirt), belts ! tops fitted at the waist (sweet heart, scoop, jewel, v-neck necklines) ; dresses with high waist definition (not boxy or baggy). _When belly is prominent_ (just in case) : avoid high waisted trousers and narrow pleated skirts, choose high waisted skirts and skirts with wider pleats and A-line shorts with pleats to add volume, only half tuck a shirt/blouse. Loose top and tight bottom is a good combination. Structured garments, relaxed fitting or with straight waistline is OK ; choose matte fabrics. No light fabric with shine and sheer, avoid knitted fabrics also. _To accentuate the chest if smaller chest_ : choose tops with a gloss effect, ruffles and bows, pockets at shirts, double breasted blazer ; avoid tightly fitted tops, very low necklines, and corsets. _To mitigate the chest if bigger chest_ : focus the attention on the waist (structured garments, belt...) ; avoid turtleneck ? _To accentuate the chest if bigger chest_ : do the opposite of the recommendations for smaller chest.

[@berryambush]

omgg i love you so much i literally was getting depressed because i couldn't create an outfit that looks good on me and i didn't understood why, this was so helpful thnk uuuu 💞💞💞💞

[@kratika1241]

That an ultimate guide. This video literally answered most of my clothing doubts. Make a sequel.

[@meow-px6kk]

You teach me so much. Now I know why I always felt like small necklines suit me most (in my opinion), it's because I like it when my shoulders look broader than they are.

[@jovanaavramovic2485]

this video is a lifesaver honestly. i always wondered why some of my clothes just dont look "right" for me, and that really made me insecure, especially about my thick legs and wide hips. but finally this video showed me what pants actually flatter me

[@okayvsk]

Loved this!! Really well-put together and easy to understand! For a video idea if you are interested to cover more fashion topics is making a closet capsule! I've seen videos like these a lot and they really help!!

[@rawrrberii]

took me a few days to get through this (bc of how insecure i am) but at the end it was worth it, THANK YOU PEACHY !

[@kyrsten777]

“if you were blessed with a curve naturally”. *shows the kardashians* 💀

[@karinazagirova]

that's a very interesting system, definitely miles more versatile than most categorizations out there

[@hooked4gud]

Just in time for new year. Here's to hoping I curate more clothing pieces that highlight my body rather than purchasing something because it looks cute. ✨✨💆‍♀

[@s1ngular1ty74]

tips for me: shoulders 15:29 - 16:59 , waist/belly 20:04 - 24:29 , hips/legs 24:58 - 25:38 , bust 29:34 - 30:20

[@CeruleanScribbles]

13:50 My body type is A-b-normal. Considering it's that one time of year where I feel the sudden urge to rewire my wardrobe and appearance, this should really help! Thank you so much!

[@python3793]

i can't even begin how to thank y'all for making such an awesome, informative video---i've only been, like, 30% sure of whether i like how i look in what i'm wearing every day. i've got an entirely different view now, and am already thinking better of how i naturally look. thank you so much!!!

[@jamielaw4749]

Haha I don't think anyone would fit the Canon ideals. The Greeks literally took the "best parts" of different men and put them on a statue to mimic gods. The photoshop of their day. It's interesting to think about and useful for this video :)

[@iamcute7487]

The way I've been doing some of these choices subconsciously makes me relieved I actually looked decent trying to be a wannabe fashionista of our class. Thank you so much for this, I learned a lot! ❤❤❤

[@carmerreumetinyOnOadyOiceX]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOIR HELPP! I’ve been doing some of the do’s for my body shape as I learnt the don’s the hard way and seeing you confirm the things I should do makes me more confident in how I dress. Thank you ❤❤❤

[@y3s8v]

i love your channel and i listen to you as a podcast, you made me realize that the problem that i was recurring was not enhancing the features that i already own by following type of clothing in this case that don't suit me well! thank you for making me realize that and just know i'll always support your channel at all cost 💘💘💘

[@rebecca31d224]

This channel is the best♡ Thank you for presenting and disecting beauty theories and information in such a healthy way. I always feel better (more accepting and less critical of my appearance) after watching. Thank you♡♡♡♡

[@ccc4102]

You put a LOT of work into this. Respect.

[@joylox]

I'm basically H-I-T and I prefer to wear more androgynous clothes and proportions, especially since my shoulders are too wide for most women's tops. I also have multiple medical conditions, the main one leading to "marfanoid body type" meaning long arms and legs, as well as long thing fingers. It means my joints stick out more (if you've seen someone with swollen joints due to arthritis, it's similar to that), and it also affects what I can wear. I can't wear anything with high heels or narrow toes, so I wear barefoot shoes only (Xero Shoes has been great). I mostly make my own stuff, and I for one am very glad that wider leg pants are in because they're more comfortable and work well on so many people, even though all of these outfits are way too girly and impractical for me. I'm mainly watching this as I'm looking at wedding fashion, and trying to get some ideas for what would look better on one of my A shaped friends as we're so different. I certainly have some better ideas now, as sometimes what one would think of helping, might not actually do what you want. Now I have a better idea of how draping comes into play.

[@wishiwashi]

I usually feel uncomfortable in my skin choosing outfits for the summer but right after I watched your video i chose an outfit based on the recommendations for my body shape and I felt and looked fabulous :)

[@ZeldaGirl35]

THANKYOUUUU FOR ALL YOUR HARDWORK AND UPLOADING THIS 💖💖💖

[@notsleepingrn]

Thank you so much for your guidance! As a teenager I saw my body constantly changing and I wondered why I didn't look good in certain clothes and styles, so watching this was really helpful!

[@hikatenmaiafu4391]

DID ANYONE MISTYPED THEMSELVES LIKE ME? I'm a broad shouldered girlie but have always LOVED accentuating my wide shoulders. Imagine Seo Yea Ji's tailored two pieces fits with padded/extravagant shoulders. That's what I like. Always thought it's kinda weird how it looks really good and makes me more feminine instead of looking athletic/masculine. Especially because I look very masculine (inverted triangle) when I wear baggy shirts. Not to mention I'm hella skinny and my boob & ass are on the average size, so not flat but not really poking out. Always thought my body type is boyish, inverted triangle, no waist, no hip, sharp angles. While watching this vid I realized the bottom half of my arms never really sit straight on the side of my body despite my shoulders being wide as hell. Turns out I'm a pear after all. I got A body type from the front, yet I'm dB from the side. Never really considered being hourglass or even pear because people who better fit the stereotype are always around me (i.e. pear -> really wide hips, prominently curvy; hourglass -> straight T shoulder blades that could cut you, really tiny waist). Suddenly everything makes sense. I do have a waist after all. I look super masculine in baggy because my waist disappears AND my pear hip is only wider than my chest, not my shoulders, so they disappear as well. "Dramatic shoulder + A-line skirt/pants" look really good because I'm basically highlighting my dominant features to the T. Does that mean...I've loved my features before I know I have them? Lol. Now I wonder how it'd look if I try subduing/balancing them out.

[@ileanagheorghisor]

Girlie, I am flabbergasted by the amount of detail and information your videos bring us! It's incredible there is such a diamond mine on KZbin! Thank you!❤
