-This is where you begin-
tops
1. Oversized shirt

2. Oversized T-shirt
Compared to a Flamboyant Gamine, Flamboyant Naturals embody a more effortless, relaxed style. Unconstructed or slightly oversized styles work well for Flamboyant Naturals, as they allow for freedom of movement and accommodate your broad shoulders. You can opt for V-necklines to elongate your neck and draw attention to your striking facial features.

bottoms
4. Relaxed pants with a lot of extra fabric
As a Flamboyant Natural, you want soft, flowing fabrics that hug your body, lengthen your vertical line, and give you a sweeping effect. This line is natural, bold, yet uncontained. Pants that are loose from the hips to the bottom are a great option for your Kibbe.

7. Maxi skirt
This piece goes perfect with your kibbe, even more so if the fabric is rigid or medium weight.
Maxi skirts that reach the feet are very flattering, especially for tall people. However, if you are short but do not want to give up wearing a maxi skirt, you will only have to take into account tips such as choosing a model that marks the waist, avoiding those that are at hip height, and preferably wearing it with heels.
The Split Front Maxi Skirt from Stella McCartney is the perfect example.
