Physical Features of a Gamine
Petite compact frame with mixed sharp and soft features creating contrast. Small bone structure with combination of angular and rounded elements. Mix of delicate and defined facial features with youthful proportions.
Note: Modern Kibbe emphasizes overall line, silhouette, and how fabric drapes on the body rather than checking off individual features. These physical descriptions serve as general guides to understand each type's accommodation needs (vertical, width, curve, petite), not as strict checklists. Your Kibbe type is about what your body needs in clothing, not matching every listed trait.
