The Four SN subtypes

SN is one of the most common types in Kibbe, so I wanted to list some different varieties of SN women based on their resemblance to other types. By the way, this is not about essence or being "SN with R essence", as in Kibbe if you are SN then you have SN essence. Mostly doing this for the beginners in order to show the diversity of SN, basically as a reminder not to think "I can't be SN, I look nothing like x celebrity". I also want to address some things I've seen in the sub from SNs, so this is observation-based (I'm not a stylist or a Kibbe expert). If you see yourself in these sub-categories please let me know! Would love to see feedback or experiences you have had so that we can learn from each other.

Textbook Soft Natural: Moderate to slightly small, up to (but not including) 5 feet 7 inches. Bone structure: Slightly angular bones, slightly square or broad shoulders. Moderate to slightly short limbs (slightly leggy look also possible).

Now here are the extra sub-categories (that I've made up, please don't take this as Kibbe gospel lol, this is more like Kibbe fanfic)

The Lithe SN: Includes all SNs who are 5'6 and some shorter ones who may have longer limbs. She is an SN who leans FN/SD because her vertical, while still moderate, is close to being long (automatic long vertical starts at 5'7). I chose the word 'lithe' because I remember it being a description for pure N, which is a type that is no longer used, but was supposed to be slightly longer in silhouette than the SN. Although, the Lithe SN is very much included in the Metamorphosis recommendations (as SN can wear monochrome (though not with dark colours!) and sometimes bigger accessories and detail), so I don't have any outfit advice for her, but I wanted to include this sub-category as I count myself as a 'taller' 5'6 SN and every time I saw someone say SN is a petite ID I would question my SN-ness. Yes, many petite women are SN but that doesn't mean all are.

The Suave SN: SNs with a moderate vertical who lean towards SC. She may have hesitated between SC and SN because she felt she didn't have enough upper width, however, she is SN because she still has an angular frame, which SC does not have (btw I think we should add 'angular' to the glossary). I picked the word 'suave' because it connotates the classiness that is often associated with classics and the charisma of the natural family. The Suave SN is also well included in the Metamorphosis recommendations, however she may feel that she doesn't like her tops to be as billowy/flowy as a textbook or lithe SN. She may also prefer moderate detail over large ones.

The Peppy SN: SNs with a short vertical who lean towards SG/R. This sub-category is sometimes discussed on the sub as there are a lot of petite SNs who are 'gaminish'. What sets them apart from gamines however is their upper width. 'Peppy' references the 'piquant' of the gamine family, but I feel it has a connotation of 'freshness', which is a term used by Kibbe to refer to the natural family. I think this is the most important sub-category because it is not mentioned in Metamorphosis, and David Kibbe apparently said that some SNs can follow some gamine recommendations. What I would say to a Peppy SN is: read the Soft Gamine recommendations and take note of the 'avoids', then apply these to the Soft Natural recommendations. The Peppy SN may also have a preference for 'SN colour-blocking', which consists of contrasting the top and bottom of an outfit in colour temperature and intensity, but not in chroma. She may also wish to avoid monochrome altogether, as well as large detail and accessories.

If you can think of celebrities who illustrate each sub-category please tell me in the comments!
