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 have natural breast, I have found that getting the band size right is the first step to getting a bra that is best for you. I have also found that Victoria Secret as the best bras I have used. Expensive but well worth the money.

Very few things thrill this sissy like the feeling of breast prosthetics being held in place by a lacy, sexy bra. Ooooo! this sissy has many, many bras; maybe 50… All shapes and styles, and selecting just the appropriate one to wear always takes way to long, they are all so special, even the most utilitarian of the bunch.
Always a pleasure to post to Ms Sorella’s blog.
Most gratefully, riki

I hear utilizing I am the same way
I have silicone breast forms and I wear them very often. I had first found the Genie Bra and those worked great and they were less than 20 dollars for two. I had also tried Primo Comfort bras and they are truly very comfortable. My most recent addition to my bra collection have been sports bras. These have become my favorite now. I don’t use any adhesives and these bras work terrific keeping my breast forms in place and I found them at Wal-Mart for less than 10 dollars. Thank you for letting me share here. Hope someone finds this useful. Cheers!
certain tops require a strapless bra to avoid exposure of the straps
Much prefer the full cup underwire bra with lace – just love the look and feel of it!
I am 6′ tall,my chest is 46″ around and 13″ across; what breast cup should I go with: looking for a natural look sexy but not too outrageous big, my waist 40 please help?
I am still a small A cup and don’t wear bras often. Mostly sports bras, but I do have a front closure bra that I like, but will want larger breasts before trying another bra.
I wear Gennie Bras. They are good at making me feel feminine. I love the pastels colors (pink, lavender, and light blue).
