Episode 12: Kibbe Body Types Part 3


Listen Later

In this lively episode of The Style Chat Podcast, stylists Sarah Liller and Tami DeLami wrap up their three-part series on the Kibbe body typing system with a mix of humor, personal anecdotes, and expert advice. If you’ve ever wondered how to make sense of Kibbe’s sometimes-intimidating guidelines, this episode is for you.

Sarah and Tami kick things off by revisiting the basics of Kibbe and sharing how it’s helped them and their clients navigate the overwhelming world of fashion. Sarah reflects on her experience as a Soft Classic, admitting that while she appreciates the insights, she’s not afraid to break a few “rules” if it means feeling good in her clothes.

The duo dives into the delicate balance between practicality and personal style. Tami hilariously recounts the struggle of outfits that require special underwear, shoes, and constant adjusting—essentially, the kind of clothes that make you ask, “Do I really want to work this hard tonight?” Meanwhile, Sarah shares her frustrations with stiff wide-leg jeans and celebrates the discovery of flowy pants that actually work for her body type.

But Kibbe isn’t just about clothes—it’s about finding harmony between your body, face, and overall vibe. Sarah and Tami explore how mismatches between facial features and body type can make certain recommendations feel off. They introduce listeners to other tools, like Kitchener essence theory, that focus on facial features and personality to create a more complete style picture.

Of course, no Style Chat episode would be complete without a little sass and laughter. They poke fun at trends like bushy eyebrows and overly ambitious color analysis advice (“Blue eyeshadow for all blue eyes? Really?”). Both agree that the key to great style is individuality, not trying to look like everyone else.

As the episode winds down, Sarah and Tami reflect on the joys of style as a journey—not a destination. They encourage listeners to embrace change, find what works for them, and most importantly, have fun with fashion. Whether it’s learning to love animal prints over florals or realizing that sometimes, you can wear black, the message is clear: Style should make you feel like the best version of yourself.

Listeners are invited to keep the conversation going by sharing questions and feedback on social media. Sarah and Tami wrap things up with a promise that while this may be the end of their Kibbe series, it’s far from the last time they’ll talk about it (because let’s be real, Kibbe is like that friend you can’t help but keep bringing up).
