A girl can never own too many bras, right?
But with so many bra options to choose from, it’s easy to go wrong and wear a bra that’s the incorrect size or style for your body type.
Want to enhance your feminine curves – without wasting money on bad bra purchases?
In this post, I share how to flatter and feminize your body with the 7 best bras for trans women and crossdressers.
1. Pocket Bra
A pocket bra, or mastectomy bra, has pockets in the cups to hold breast forms securely in place. If you wear breast forms (especially large or heavy forms), a pocket bra is a must.
2. Front Closure Bra
Crossdressers and transgender women tend to have wide rib cages and/or widely spaced breasts. This can make it hard to find a bra that fits properly.
Enter the front closure bra. Front closure bras have a clasp in the front of the bra instead of the back. These bras have wider set cups, making them easier to fit.
3. T-shirt Bra
The t-shirt bra is every girl’s best friend. It’s a seamless, molded cup bra that’s designed to look smooth under your clothes – even the most form-fitting tee. Best of all, t-shirt bras come in a wide range of sizes.
4. Convertible Bra
A common complaint I hear from crossdressers and transgender women is that many bras have straps that aren’t long enough for them.
Convertible bras offer a perfect solution. Convertible bras have removable straps that can be worn in different ways – including crisscrossed. Because of this, they have longer straps than regular bras.
5. Balconette Bra
Balconette bras have cups that are cut horizontally across the bust. This is a beautiful cup style that’s particularly flattering to wide rib cages and/or wide set breasts.
Most balconette bras are padded, so they’re also great for giving “the girls” some extra oomph.
6. Wireless Bra
Underwire bras offer maximum support, so they’re ideal if you wear breast forms. However, they can be hard to fit if you have a wide chest.
Consider wearing a wireless bra instead. Wireless bras have a more forgiving fit, so they’re much more comfortable.
If you want to wear a soft cup bra with breast forms, look for a wireless pocketed bra or attach the breast forms to your chest with tape or adhesive.
7. Adhesive Bra
Adhesive bras are a backless, strapless bra style that’s attached to the breasts with adhesive.
These bras are fabulous for creating cleavage, so they’re a must for your femme wardrobe. (Click here to learn more about how to create cleavage with an adhesive bra.)
In conclusion
While you don’t need to limit yourself to these 7 bra styles (the sky’s the limit in bra land!), they’re a great place to start.
Now I’d like to hear about YOUR favorite bras. Is there a particular bra style or brand that works for you?

I’m a tall gurl, 6′ 3″ with a bra size of 46A. F2F will hopefully increasing that cup size. I can find a limited number of bras in my cup and band size but the shoulder straps are all too short to properly fit my longer torso. Anybody have suggestions on where to find such a bra. I would like to find a convertible bra as our fine host suggests but have been unable to find one in my band and cup size.

I have very small breasts, so I am not even sure where to look for getting started with bras, I get more lost when searching the web, undies were easy peasy! any suggestions as to where to turn, go for help on getting started on this,
“Jeremy”…Nice Legs and Great Nylons…I hope you are wearing your Bra under that Great Top.
I made breast forms out of modeling clay, but they tend to be heavier and sink below my real breasts when i wear my bras. That is why i would love to get real breast forms. My problem is that my bra straps tend to slip off more on my right side. I have found a place in New York city that sells breast forms at ( Crossdressers.com) they have a wonderful selection of breast forms but being from another country and on a pension it is hard to save the money i need to get them. they also have special panties that have a female form which i would also love to get to be much more woman like but they are even more expensive than the breast forms. i would love to hear from anyone that uses or has bought similar panties as those i have mentioned in this comment. please reply if you have and use these panties.
I love wearing my push up bra I have small breasts so a push bra is perfect for me
Very Nice Sandra
“Sandra”…”Very Sexy”…”I Love See Men Wearing Their Bras !
Thank you paula
For crossdressers and gurls who aren’t ready to transition, I’d recommend full coverage bras over pocket bras. They’re available in a greater size range and direct skin contact helps keep the breast forms in place and make them feel more like your own.
I WEAR PUSHUP BRAS TO LIFT AND SEPERATE. I FOUND LILLY OF FRANCE VERY HELPFUL WITH MY CROSSDRESSING NEEDS.
“Albert”…Since I am a Natural 46B/46C-Cup Bra Wearer…I don’t need to wear a Underwire Bra…I wear my regular (Playtex) Bras all the time.
