Are you wondering how the Gamine Romantic style looks like and what celebrity is it?

This article has all the answers!

The faces of the representatives of the Gamine Romantic type are very diverse.

This is because in the Gamine Romantic type, Gamine (the type with the most prominent head if compared to the body) and Romantic (the type with the smallest head close to the body’s overall shape), so those are mixed into one type.

In Gamine Romantic body types merge:

Gamine face with a more voluminous forehead, lighter chin, and quite a Romantic face, weighted down by a smooth square chin.

Gamine face with a prominent forehead, lighter chin, and quite a Romantic face, weighted down by a smooth square chin (which usually correlates to a Natural type; however, in this case, Gamine is dominant, so I will not go into Natural type specifics).
Round large eyes of Gamine and the most delicate in shape among other types of eyes of Romantic type.
Long eyebrows-wings from Gamine and small rounded eyebrows of Romantic type.
Sharp lips in the form of a bud from Gamine and soft, smooth, streamlined lips of Romantic type.
Pointy little nose from Gamine and a softer, delicate nose of a Romantic type.

Thus, one can imagine what an impressive range of faces is obtained by mixing these two types.

In the figures, again, the range of mixing of Gamine and Romance is manifested through:

Romantic small sloping shoulders or Gamine’s more expansive shoulder line

The ribcage and breasts can be small to slightly larger but still delicate,

Hips from youthful teenage Gamine to rounded feminine Romantic.

However, it should be noted that this is only a variant of the representative of the type in thin weight. With fullness, the dominants can change when building more “flash” in one place or another according to the types:

Gamine is the only type that gains weight evenly in all areas, including the face, hands, and feet.

On the other hand, a Romantic type gains weight only below the waist, in the area of the hips, buttocks, and upper legs.

Let’s look at the Gamine Romantic (GR) type on one of its brightest representatives – Natalie Portman.

She has a mixed Gamine Romantic dominance in her face and body, and the body and facial features combine delicate softness and coalescence.

SILHOUETTE OF GAMINE ROMANTIC

For a mixed dominant in the body and the face for Gamine Romantic, the entire range of images is available from purely Gamine, through GR, to purely Romantic:

The silhouette is created with a clear line with a fragmentation set by the details, cut, color, or print instead of each other.

The Romantic silhouette considers the waist’s soft, smooth outer and inner lines.

The integral components of the Romantic shape are reliefs, tucks, draperies, and a combination of different volumes and details as a continuation of the image.

However, the most valuable thing with a mixed dominant will is to use the unity of Gamine and Romantic types – the combination of coal, clarity, and roundness, streamlined forms.

You can do this in two ways:

Mixing the characteristics of these two types in the performance of each image element: a piece of clothing, hairstyle/haircut, makeup, or accessory.

To combine the attributes of Gamine and Romantic types, for example, we can start moving from a neat, clear geometric Gamine silhouette, leaving a charcoal line, or add light draped fabrics and lantern sleeves from a Romantic type.

Otherwise, you can go from Romantic with its soft roundness and curves and add denser materials that will allow you to redraw sketches of romantic clothes in GR.

Also, we can combine the image elements in their pure form, belonging only to Gamine or Romantic. For example, hairstyle R, makeup G, jewelry R, but jacket G, etc.

In the first picture, we can see a too-deep and long neck area that is too dramatic for the Gamine type. It immediately makes Natalie’s soft features more coarse and heavy.

The nose becomes more prominent, the eyebrows look clashing with the entire face, and red lips make it too hefty. It is the wrong stylist’s pick from the stylist for this body type.

She looks heavy and tired (this kind of image would instead suit someone with theatrical or dramatic type like Mila Jovovic or Megan Fox).

The second picture shows the Gamine Romantic type blend with two soft types requiring smooth edges and lines: necklines, cuts, and collars should be small.

Here we see the fabrics and cut of a Gamine, and the collar is a soft round of a Romantic type.

In any image, GR needs to observe the delicacy and playfulness of his type. In contrast to the excellent reaction to GR style, we notice the opposite when GR interacts with Natural and Dramatic elements of the image:

The lack of detail and minimalism inherent in Natural and Dramatic look very dull on the GR type.

Large-scale looks appear out of place on miniature Romantic Gamines.

In the shapeless clothes of Natural, GR loses all its fragility, tenderness, and childishness.

And even with the overweight body of Gamine-Romantic, unstructured styles and large volumes look very cumbersome, and they simplify and coarsen the graceful beauty of GR.

The first three pictures show that the flamboyant oversized tops and blazers don’t structure the tiny body well, and it looks shorter and makes the beauty of Gamine dull and unspecified.

The last picture shows the romantic vibe with its frills and flowy fabrics, making Natalie glow because the style was chosen correctly.

Dramatic cut clothes look wrong on the GR, as if the girl was wearing the clothes of an older sister or mother.

But the lantern sleeves and romantic folk style look excellent and follow Gamine Romantic lines.

Plus, the short hair brings playfulness to the image, which Gamine Romantics can go for.

LIGHT AND HEAVY FABRICS FOR GAMINE ROMANTIC

With a mixed dominance in the face and body, Gamine Romantic can use both Gamine fabrics – holding their shape, but unlike Dramatic materials, they are not so heavy, without “wooden sculpture” coarseness.

Those should be light, flowing, or transparent Romantic fabrics, like silk, organza, etc.

Textured fabrics for Naturals, an abundance of oversized and loose knitwear, a rough or heavy surface of materials coarsen the appearance of Gamine Romantic, add age, and show puffiness and uneven texture of the face, etc.

PRINTS AND CLOTHING FOR GAMINE ROMANTIC

The small-scale print/elements are essential for GR. Since two delicate types are mixed, no matter what the dominant in the face is, prints and other details of clothing (like collars, patch pockets, etc.) on a large scale will look inharmonious in the image.

The first picture shows the heaviness of plain dark color, which contradicts the Gamine Romantic style.

The features become rough immediately. While on the other image, we see small patterned fabrics that coincide with Natalie’s beauty and allow it to shine through.

Both Gamine and Romantic come to life against the backdrop of detailing.

For a mixed GR dominant, charcoal, pointiness, and roundness, which can be found in such sprints and details as a drop, hearts, some types of flower petals, and leaves, is ideal.

HAIRCUT AND HAIRSTYLE FOR GAMINE ROMANTIC

Depending on the dominance of the face, Gamine, Romantic, or in the case of a mixed dominant, like Natalie Portman, both Gamine and Romantic hairstyles will suit her.

Both short and long haircuts emphasize Gamine’s dynamics of the face with torn ends haircuts with a ladder.

Charcoal barrettes, scarves, and headbands are great options for a gamine.

A Gamine Romantic type can afford a short ragged haircut only if they have a mixed Gamine Romantic dominant or a pure G, but not a pure Romantic prevalent in his face.

In the first picture, we have long straight lines that don’t make Natalie look good.

She needs more Romantic or Gamine-type playfulness; otherwise, she will appear heavy with her sleek hairstyle.

Romantic tenderness is perfectly complemented by delicate, neat curls of small diameter; hair can be gathered in ornate strands or worn loosely.

As a combined Gamine Romantic option, you can make, for example, torn coal bangs and small curls along the length.

The second option is to curl up, but the airy cloud of romantic curls needs to be given more precise contours and turned into separate spirals, adding Gamine clarity and geometricity.

You can also add sharp protruding tips at the bottom of the curls if they are shoulder-length(also a geometric shape).

GR needs to observe delicacy and playfulness in hairstyles and the whole image.

Dramatic straight and long, smooth lines will be weighty on the face of the GR, and inappropriate natural tousled hair will immediately create the illusion of superficial facial imperfections.

Therefore, GR hair should not be straightened out.

MAKEUP FOR GAMINE ROMANTIC

For the Gamine dominant of the face, the best would be expressive makeup with active accents on both the eyes and lips: unambiguous arrows, a precise angular lip contour, and an underlined corner of the eyebrow.

Romantic makeup, on the contrary, is barely noticeable, delicate, and shaded: gentle romantic lip gloss, light eye makeup, and natural eyebrows.

With a mixed dominant like Natalie Portman, both makeup options are equally available, as well as any combination of them in the image, for example:

The eyes are drawn more geometrically, and the lips only have a slight sheen.
Or lips with a precise contour and watercolor drawing of the eyes or eyes with a slight haze.
