Is your height stopping you from confidently expressing your fabulous feminine self to the world? Well, it shouldn’t!
Sure, many crossdressers and transgender women tend to be taller than what’s considered “average” for females. But honestly, who cares?
Tall women are absolutely stunning!
However, if your aim is to play down your height a bit, there are some simple techniques that can help you achieve just that.
In this blog post for tall crossdressers and trans women, I share 4 easy ways to appear shorter.
1. Don’t Slouch
While you might be tempted to downplay your height by slouching, this is the first thing you’ll want to avoid.
Slouching isn’t attractive and it just makes it obvious that you’re not comfortable with your height.
So, resist the urge to slouch. Instead, stand tall! You’ll come across as confident and self-assured.
2. Wear the Right Shoes
If you want to appear shorter, it’s clear that you should avoid high heels. However, this doesn’t necessarily mean you’re limited to flats!
Consider opting for shoes with a stylish kitten heel. A small heel adds elegance to your look without a significant height boost.
Additionally, these shoe styles can make your legs and feet appear shorter and smaller:
- Consider wearing shoes with straps over the instep or around the ankle. This helps break up the long line of your legs.
- Opt for shoes with rounded toes instead of pointy ones. This visually reduces the length of your feet.
3. Dress to Downplay Your Height
The clothes you wear have a huge impact on your overall appearance. Here are 5 dos and don’ts for downplaying your height:
- DO choose full skirts and dresses to draw the eye horizontally instead of vertically. (More width = less height.)
- DON’T wear super tight clothes. (Less width = more height.)
- DO wear a different color top and bottom to visually break up your figure.
- DON’T wear monochromatic outfits; this makes you look even taller.
- DO wear a contrasting belt to interrupt the eye from going straight up and down a long torso.
4. Choose the Right Hairstyle
DON’T: Volume at the crown
DO: Volume at the sides
DO: Shoulder length hair
The last thing to consider is your hair. The wrong hairstyle can make you look even taller, so here are 3 suggestions for avoiding unnecessary height:
- Avoid hairstyles with a lot of volume at the crown as this literally adds inches to your stature.
- Try a layered or wavy hairstyle that adds some volume around the sides of your face.
- Avoid wearing your hair too long since this tends to make you look even taller. Generally speaking, shoulder length hair is most flattering.
In conclusion
Don’t forget that tall women exude elegance, grace, and beauty! But if you’re still interested in downplaying your height, now you’ve got 4 simple tactics to try out.
As always, I’d love to hear your thoughts on this topic. If you’re a tall crossdresser or transgender woman, how do you personally embrace your height?

Hello!
140lbs white TG your flat2fem program says it will take longer for skinner guys to grow breasts, how much longer will it take? I have a extremely high metabolism and a high calorie burning job that keeps me looking hot.
As I apply the opposite, frankly I think that many would like to have those extra inches if they have them, would be great
I sure would!!! I’ve wanted to be tall my whole life, but at 5’2″ I can’t even fake it in heels.
Thanks Lucille.
At 5’4” I don’t really have that problem.

Good for you! We petite women have to band together, lol.
Hello,
My question is, can a male who is 47 yrs old still grow breasts or is it too late?
Dear 47 year old, I started growing breast at 64 years old. I wish you all the luck in the world, girlfriend
Mark it is never to late to start growing breasts. I am in my 5th year now and up to a 34B and I started at age 47. The one thing to remember is that they keep growing after awhile and at that point they won,t go away either so make sure you want them and are ready.
At 67 I sport a 40D or 42C!!
Even though I have lost over 60 pounds and over 10% on all other dimensions, my breastsize is still at 95% of original! (I measure 45″+ breast, 36″ waist, 41″ hips!
Follow all of Lucille’s recommendations (suppliments- Green Duke Pharmacy, etc, apply her emails and blogs-)
I also use the Claresonic system with fenugreek/Co-Q 10/Shea butter massages to drive the phytoestrogens in.
You can achieve a D size! Go for it!
Not if you take estrogen and progesterone. Are you wanting to transition or just grow boobs?
at age 51 grew from a small A to a C 36C
Definitely. I took hormones for 6 months only aged 57 and developed an A-cup; only stopped as I was due a (un-related) operation.
it’s never too late! I have a nice A/B going, and I’m umm “older” than you.
You are sooo sweet to remind us tall gurls that we can remove that as a concern when we take time to cautiously prepare. . . . our dress and makeup and all things feminine must be in place and then being “Tall” makes little difference. . . Except that we look wonderful and everyone else is envious of our feminininity. . . .
Thanks for your advice and assistance. . . .

Girlfriend, your help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you for all your help, Lucille!
Thank you, Kylie, for the sweet comments. I feel very humbled by your words, as I look more male than female at this point in my transition. You are very kind, and I’m sure you are sexy and lovely as well!
Celeste
You are very sexy! A lovely woman darling!
I don’t mind at all! Thank you so much for the complement! Just to give you a little background, I’m a male to female transexual, and I have recently began cross hormone therapy. I have struggled with transgenderism since around the age of five, and finally, at the ripe old age of 41, I had the courage to finally face my fears, and come out publicly. I have to admit, this journey has not always been easy, as I am currently dealing with dissaproval from family members who believe I am “living in sin.” However, this wonderful journey has also been the most rewarding one I have embarked on. The changes both emotionaly and physiologically are very fulfilling and downright fun. Please send me information about you, as I am very interested in your journey! Take care, and God bless. –Celeste
