Wrap-Styles for Soft Dramatics
Wrapper’s delight! I look for wrapping of all types - dresses, skirts, sweaters, even pants. Wrap-styles hug our beautiful Soft Dramatic curves. A belt can be a welcome edition too. Check out this outfit inspiration.

Brands - Lulus - Perfect Party Dress
I am a HUGE fan of the user reviews and images on Lulu’s and other sites. We need to see how a garment translates on a variety of body types before we can assess how it might look on us.
Brands - Reformation
What do you think of the brand Reformation? This Esmerelda Dress retails for $248. Worth it? They certainly have the French chic vibe down.

This Outfit is Soft Dramatic Perfection
Perfection for a Kibbe Soft Dramatic body type:
- wrap-style - asymmetrical - dramatic ruffle flourishes - cinched at the waist - straight (rather than a-line) but not super fitted or overly tailored - knee length (SD’s are typically over 5’5” and many dresses are a tad too short, making our legs appear large because of our larger bones) - bold color

Style Tip - Bold Prints
Ever since I spent a semester I. Spain I’ve been waiting obsessed with large rose prints on black backgrounds. Turns out it suits my Soft Dramatic style ID well. Large, bold patterns add drama, and the larger bone structure and overall length of SDs don’t get overshadowed by these types of prints.
Style Tip - Monochromatic
Soft Dramatics look particularly stunning in monochromatic outfits because they accentuate our long vertical line. Check out some one-color shopping recommendations.
