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!

Id love to get some links for the outfits that are posted on this article below the pictures of the actresses.
I have dark blue eyes , so I tend to to favour blue as my favourite colour but as a lot of the girls here have mentioned it really depends on my mood . Having said that though I don’t think yellow suits me at all . I have grey hair now and I don’t think it goes well with yellow or beige or brown which are my least favourite colours . I really favour navy blue as I think that looks really good on me but am open to most shades of blue . Purple would have to come next followed by red and then pink and then the rest in no particular order . Colours are the best thing about dressing en femme as most girls here would agree that boring mens clothes are just that , boooooring . Love this site . Stay safe girls . Love Jodi .
Please, please, PLEASE don’t hold Caitlyn Jenner up as an example to other transgender people. She is an embarrassment and the worst possible example of a transgender woman.
Hi Allie,
I’m puzzled, It never occurred to me that Caitlyn Jenner was an example to other trans people. Perhaps you could share your feelings of embarrassment in regards to her.
My favorite color, with some flowers sprinkled among it
Very informative guide for deeply understanding of me and opposite person mentality, thanks❤ Lucille
I enjoy wearing pink during the day and black at night time!!!
OMG Allie. I thought it was only me who found Caitlyn am embarrassment and the worst possible example of a TG woman. I couldn’t agree more with your post.
