The Thirteen

Long. Narrow. Decisive.

She doesn't soften to be let in. The Dramatic line runs long and sharp from shoulder to hem, and anything that breaks it (a ruffle, a puff, a fussy print) gets cut.

The Thirteen: Dramatic is Volume 2 of a fourteen-volume lookbook series that takes the thirteen Kibbe archetypes into kink and character work. This volume is for anyone whose line is Dramatic, and for anyone dressing, styling or writing one: a coat that ends where it means to, a shoulder with an edge, one hard shine against matte black.

Inside this volume
• Five women who carry the line, with how Dramatic differs from its neighboring types
• A sentence bank for writing her, so every sentence knows exactly where it stops
• What to buy and what to skip, from office to black tie
• Seven everyday scenes
• 26 full-bleed Showroom spreads: hotels, institutions, pet personas, the Matrix, the carnival, twelve film worlds and four subcultures
• The Accessory Pool: 2,000 pieces to finish any look

Fully illustrated, 96 pages, 8.5 x 11 inches, full color.
