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?

I am 5 foot 5 inches which isn t very tall and i love wearing dresses and skirts that are short as my legs are my best asset so far to show them off, but have started to wear longer clothes some just below or above the knees. Being tall is not everything although i love looking at tall women, they look very sexy to me.If you like great clothes and can afford to take a trip try going to the Philippines, they have great clothes and the cost is fantastic. I bought 3 dresses and paid less than 10$ for each dress. 2 of the dresses are knee length the other little black dress is shorter but has a very long v-neck so i need to get a camisole to wear under it as it shows my bra if i do not wear anything under the dress.

Hi there
At 5’8&¼ (1.74m) tall, I can be considered tall. But at 136Lbs is actually accentuates my toned lehs
I am 6’4″ tall. I have recently changed my name from RobertA to Sandra.
My favorite tall celeb is Charlize Theron, althought I really like all of the women you have pictured. At 66yrs old, I have finally decided to be the person that I was meant to be. That person is named Sandra Michelle Dyke, Sandy for short. I know that I have a long row to hoe, but I need to be her, in order to survive. I am working with a therapist. Thanks, Sandy
I’m 6ft5 and that is all that’s holding me back – I love heels so much if I can’t wear them it all seems pointless. Thank you for sharing. The more I read about tall ladies pushing on regardless the more confidence and courage I find in myself.

Loti,
Loose weight, as women we can’t
be slim enough to be more feminine.
Men love to see women starved with
larger busts, slimmer waists, and wider
hips and long legs.
High heels make our legs look much
longer as women. I always wear skirts
and dresses at my knees or often up to
4″ above my knees. My legs look very
cute and sexy with high heels and a
short skirt as a woman.
I know men love women in shorter
skirts, nude pantyhose, and high heels.
The look very delicate and vulnerable
like a doll and I love being a doll.

I’m 5’2(159cm) am I tall?
Loti,
At 5’2″ tall you are not tall.
I am a very short man at 5’2″ tall
also. I am a petite woman at that
height.
We are both shorter than the average
woman at 5’4″ tall I believe. Today
the average woman may be taller
than 5’4″ tall.
However, I am 135 Lbs a little
heavy for a 5’2″ tall woman.
I am lucky being a 34C cup bra,
28″ waist, 36″ hips, and size 9 1/2
in woman’s shoes.
You are not tall at 5’2″ for a
woman.

I’m 6′ (185 cm), I’m tall at least, I hate it. Especially with the fact that I’ve been taller than either of my parents or any adult I know since 15.
