“Original, modest, vintage”
The Time Traveler has a natural allure that is nostalgic and timeless. With a style that combines vintage elegance, playful originality, and a touch of ethereal grace, this essence moves seamlessly between eras, never out of place, always unique. Think of someone who could step out of a 1970s café, a 1940s jazz club or a futuristic dream world and still look impeccable. Modest yet expressive, classic yet unconventional, The Time Traveler is a living bridge between the past, present and future, always with a signature touch of intrigue.
The essences of Gamine, Classic, and Angelic, are fundamental to creating the unique aesthetic of “The Time Traveler.” Each of these essences brings specific qualities that, when fused, form a totally balanced style.
But also, you should know that this style is not static! Rather, it changes and adapts according to each person’s Kibbe type, so the mixture of essences together with your Kibbe will allow you to look and express yourself through fashion, in a unique way.
Depending on your Kibbe type, you will know if your look will maintain elegance and simplicity, but perhaps with more dramatic lines? Focusing on the delicacy in the details? Or why not with a more flirtatious and playful touch?
As you can see, this fusion of essences and their adaptation to each Kibbe type allows the style of The Time Traveler to feel effortlessly original, modest, and vintage. It celebrates the individuality of each person while maintaining a common thread of timeless elegance, nostalgic charm, and an ever-evolving sense of style, like someone who moves through different eras with ease, always looking effortlessly at home in the past, present, and future.

Patterns like houndstooth, subtle checks, and delicate florals add a nostalgic yet modern edge. Classic elements ensure sophistication, while angelic touches such as loose sleeves or ethereal embroidery add a dreamy, timeless quality.
For each Kibbe type, adaptation lies in proportion: Gamines can embrace sharper cuts and contrasting details, while classics should maintain symmetry and Romantic types can lean towards softer drapes.
