Casual Model

Natural Style Type

So far, I’ve only identified one purely Natural celebrity: supermodel Elle Macpherson.

Macpherson is tall—about 6 feet. Body type and style type don’t always align, but in Macpherson’s case, her strong, confident face matches the presence her height commands.

Natural fashion

Like Natural faces, Natural fashion embodies confidence, appearing simultaneously active and relaxed. This style embraces the comfortable clothes most of us love—loose basic Tees and long-sleeves in breathable fabrics, relaxed-fit jeans, cargo pants, oversized sweaters, casual cardigans, sneakers, and simple sandals.

Natural faces

With high cheekbones and wide jaws, highly Natural faces appear grounded and confident.

The Natural vibe embodies a balance between intimidating Dramatic and sweet Ingenue. Naturals appear confident without seeming imposing (Dramatic) and friendly without appearing extremely sweet (Ingenue).

Highly Natural faces are defined both by length and width. Elle Macpherson’s face has some vertical elongation, while her brows, eyes, and lips appear slightly stretched horizontally but not vertically—meaning they don’t appear notably round.

Since highly Natural faces tend to have a lot of width, they’re harmonious with big smiles. This is because smiling of course makes the mouth and jaw look wider, and can sometimes have this effect on the nose and cheeks. For curving essences, smiling can make features appear narrower and dramatically change the face’s true shapes—but for Naturals, a big smile tends to match the face’s features perfectly, creating a vibe of authenticity, friendliness, and likability.

Natural may be the most common style essence, but in my experience, having a purely Natural face like Macpherson’s is rare. It’s certainly possible you’re purely Natural, but it’s more likely you’re a Natural blend, like:
