Did you know that the colors you choose to wear have a huge impact on how others perceive you – especially when presenting as a woman?
Colors convey subtle messages that can influence whether you appear more feminine or masculine.
So, if your goal is to look more feminine as a crossdresser or transgender woman, paying attention to the colors of your clothes and accessories is essential!
In this blog post on trans / crossdressing transformation tips, I share the meanings of 12 different colors and what they project about your female self.
White
White is associated with purity and innocence, which is why it’s traditionally worn by brides. Wear white if you want to look pure, pristine, and impeccable.
Blue
Light blue sends messages of peace, trust, and understanding. Dark blue is associated with authority and masculinity (think police uniforms), so use this color sparingly.
The best shades of blue for crossdressers and transgender women are light blue and baby blue.
Pink
Pink is the color of love and romance. No surprisingly, it’s also the most feminine color, so you may want to incorporate plenty of pink into your wardrobe.
Red
Red is the most intense color of all and is associated with passion, desire, love, and sexuality. Wear red if you want to be noticed.
Black
Black is associated with power, elegance, and formality. Wear black when you want to look sophisticated and mysterious.
Purple
Purple communicates mystery, magic, and creativity. This is a great color to wear if you want to add a touch of fantasy to your look.
Green
Light green symbolizes freshness and youthfulness, while dark green is associated with money and ambition. Wear a gorgeous shade of green to add a fresh, feminine vibe to your look.
Yellow
Yellow is the color of joy and energy. Wear yellow to show off your fun, playful side. Avoid yellow when you want to be taken seriously.
Orange
Like yellow, orange is associated with joy, enthusiasm, and attraction. This is a great color to wear when you want to liven things up.
Brown
Brown is a stable, wholesome, and down-to-earth color. Wear brown for mellow occasions or if you want to appear reliable and genuine.
Gray
Gray is a great color to wear when you need to come across as professional and trustworthy. Too much gray can get boring though, so be sure to punch it up with some fun colors.
Beige
Beige is a simple, conservative color that’s friendly, approachable and non-threatening. It’s perfect for times when you want people to open up to you.

P.S. Color is a HUGE topic that doesn’t just relate to clothes. Hair and makeup are equally important!

I have so much fun ! i have to wear the yellow when i go out to dance. my other favorite is to mix, if you do it in taste it will work and you don’t mix signals just make your biggest statement on top! pink is my most fun color nobody expects it, it’s bold . you will be noticed so get the makeup right!. Black cashmere is a waste no definition, if you spend the money on something so luscious don’t hide in it! make the color touchable and desirous!one color is direct but if you use little accessories you can enhance the statement with contrast. I find direct color layering is an attractive consideration( black over white, -red and yellow ,-green-gold, blue – tan . sometime tights or pattern hose is age hiding.always remenber if you think it doesn’t feel good change it!!!, but don’t be afraid to be exiting, when you walk in you want to own the room!!
Pinks are my favorite in blouses, and often in accesories, like a belt-
though I am partial to light blue, and now I see that yellow can portray fun,
so in the future I will be adding that as well
I voted for blue as my favorite color to wear…. But I like wearing “all” colors in the poll, especially pastels. Except for gray. Gray to me is a dreary color, unless spiced up with a light pastel color.
Living in Florida, I am blessed with an almost endless summer. Therefore,
I am able to wear all colors and combinations throughout the year.
My Favorite of all colors period is Purple, but when I go out, I either wear Red, Black, or Gray (slate). Just happens that way Lol
I personally love black and white combo, animal prints, red ( particularly party dresses), and bright floral in summer but nothing says female like pink. Gotta love pink.

Red and Black are my favorite colors depending on if I am in a sassy mood or feeling ultra sexy. I like to get noticed and it has been my experience that men respond best to these colors on me. Normally when I am wearing red I will wear my hear in long flowing curls with bright red lipstick and if I’m wearing black I will wear my hair pulled up in a bun with wind colored lipstick and nail polish.
Pink or Purple, as long as it is in satin.

Im a black and brown kind of girl I love balck case it goes with any thing and it’s slimming! (very important lol) Being a larger build I dont need to draw any more attension to myself so darker coulours are great for that.
