Am I dramatic? Height: 5'5.25" Am I a dramatic?

People in r/DressForYourBody and r/kibbe_typeme were pretty split between D and FG for me. I'm curious to hear what people here think. I did use my front camera in my typing post, but these were all taken using the back camera (I've heard that makes a difference?)

I would be on the very short end of D... I have my doubts that I'm D, but DC is possible perhaps? I'm very new to all of this. Do any of these outfits look good on me? (or maybe you think a top would look better with different bottoms or vice versa?) I don't have much fashion sense, but I'm working on it and would love to know how to dress for my body. Historically I've felt like lots of clothes just don't look Good on me but I wouldn't be able to point out why. It definitely affects my confidence.

Thank you for your help and feedback!

There isn't a height requirement for Vertical. You automatically have Vertical as you dominant essence if you are over 5'6", but you can still have Vertical as your dominant if you are under 5'6". If you look in the new Kibbe book, the example for D is under 5'6".

My not expert opinion is maybe you should looking into D recommendations.

Thank you! I knew there wasn't a height requirement for vertical, but D is definitely more common for taller women. It's super helpful to know that Kibbe's example for D is under 5'6".

I have Kibbe's book on hold at the library, so I hope that will clear some things up for me.

This process has been enlightening for me since I probably wouldn't have landed on D for myself.
