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.

My favorite color is unquestionably pink. Half my wardrobe is pink. The only 2 items I don’t have in pink yet is a pink skirt and pink heels(I have been looking for both for some time but haven’t found any yet). I have 150+ pairs of earrings and half of them are shades of pink. I also love red. I have many red clothes including dresses, coats, sweaters, jewelry, scarves, shoes, and of course, earrings. All of my many friends tell me that I look beautiful in pink and red, telling me that they are my best colors that compliment my looks. Their comments confirm my choices of favorite colors.
I love all colours but have more green than anything else I have kept my colours plain mostly green, black, but in the last two years have decided to star wearing more colours like lighter blues, yellows pinks & purples have also got more browns in my clothes range I’ve had to swap my male clothes & fem clothes around as to give my expanding fem clothes more room.
I love multiple-coloured printed dresses and tops with flower prints,or modern designer prints.And all shades of pink,red and blue.As for jeans colour,my favourite is the colour of thunder cloud,or sea wave colour.Also I like to create self-made clothes,buying white tops and t-shirts and turning them to printed with the use of forest flowers,sea stones and an old washing machine by special know-how.
Oh for those who don’t know me (HEY start posting on the forum!)
I am employed as a woman and have been 24/7 living female since July 3, 2007.
I seem to notice that I do a favorite color for a while then change to another. There is not a single color that is not in my wardrobe.
I wore mostly pink for a long time, then blue, then white, recently discovered black and bought some great black dresses, blouses and skirts, now seem to be into Lilac and Purple, just got a Lilac pair of shorts today, a pink lacey bra, and a mixed color skirt that has purple in it to match my purple top. I only got some green stuff lately (few months ago,) and was amazed at how good it looked on me as I had hardly ever worn green before.
My favourite colour is definitely black. It looks slimming and helps me blend in. At my age darker colours seem to work.
You look great Maxine.
That dress as in style, not just being black does justice for you.
