After spending three years learning about body-based style systems, I have developed my framework 'the body matrix' which is my perspective on the key things you need to know to dress for your features. Inspired by Kibbe body types, and other body shape systems, the body matrix identifies 27 body types based on width, length and shape. In this video, I compare the types to Kibbe for those of you familiar with that system, as well as how to style each one.
I really recommend watching the entire video - I felt like I was repeating myself a lot as I am covering a lot of these terms the same way with a new perspective so by watching the video in its entirety you are going to get a better idea of how each of the elements work together!
By the way, my book is coming out THURSDAY 12th SEPTEMBER in the UK which is so exciting!! The book covers so much on the body matrix, so I would love it if you would check it out: https://geni.us/DressYourBest
