Wearing lingerie is a guaranteed way to feel feminine. Best of all, it’s something you can indulge in on a daily basis.
What are the lingerie pieces every trans woman or crossdresser should own?
I’ve compiled a list of 10 must-have transgender / crossdressing lingerie items that should be part of your MTF wardrobe. Read on to learn more!
1. Basic Black Or Nude Bra
Every girl needs a basic bra, so a simple nude or black bra is a must.
If you’re having trouble finding your size, try the Leading Lady Lightly Padded Contour Underwire Bra. It comes in a wide range of sizes that would fit most crossdressers and transgender women. (Band sizes 36-54, cup sizes A-G)
2. Panty Gaff
For a flat and feminine look, a panty gaff is your best friend. A gaff is an undergarment designed to offer a smooth and tucked appearance. Here are a few options:
- Gold Seal Gaff by The Dress Form Store
- Super Strong Hiding Gaff by Suddenly Fem
- Thong Gaff by Glamour Boutique
3. Shaping Camisole
Who couldn’t benefit from a little mid-section slimming? A shaping camisole can help you slim down your waist and stomach without constricting you like a corset or girdle would. I like the camisoles from Yummie, which go up to a size 3x.
4. Padded Panty
If you crave feminine curves (and who doesn’t?), padded panties offer an instant solution. Your options range from light lifting to full-on hip and butt shaping. Here are a few of my favorites:
- Light shaping – Ulta Sheer Padded Panty by FeelFoxy
- Medium shaping – The Glamour Gal Silicone Hip and Butt Padded Shaper
- Full shaping – Veronicas by Classic Curves
5. Nude Or Black Pantyhose
While women don’t wear pantyhose as often as they used to, pantyhose looks more polished than bare skin and enhances the appearance of your legs. Your lingerie wardrobe should definitely include a pair of black and/or nude hose.
6. Slinky Nightie
There’s nothing like slipping into a slinky nightgown to make you feel extra feminine. Whether you prefer long or short, you should own at least one silky nightie. Or better yet, buy a few in different lengths and colors.
7. Basic Panties
Sometimes simple is best! Whether you prefer thongs, bikinis, or briefs, you should own at least a few basic panties.
8. Sexy Bra And Panty Set
While the basics are important, half the fun of lingerie is expressing your sensual side. That’s why no wardrobe is complete without at least one super sexy bra and panty set.
9. Nubra
The Nubra is an adhesive bra that’s fantastic for creating cleavage. Since it’s backless and strapless, it can be worn alone or under another bra. To learn how to create feminine cleavage with the Nubra, see my post on How to Get Feminine MTF Cleavage.
10. Silk Or Satin Robe
A silk or satin robe is a classic boudoir piece that will make you feel ultra feminine. You should have at least one so you have something sensual to slip into when you are at home.
Let’s talk lingerie!

Love your articles and perspective Lucille,always informative and fun to read. On this particular one,I think the use of thongs for pre op mtf is questionable though.If there is not enough material present to cover properly,things can go wrong and become uncomfortable/unsightly. A careful selection is critcal,as thongs generally don’t provide enough material to keep everything in place if a proper sillouette is the intended result. My suggestion is form fitted (snug) bikini’s or similar for everyday wear.When worn properly, they are comfortable and will maintain an appropriate appearance until removed.
I love my black and red teddy set, i wear whenever i travel.
I’ve got black underwear and tights with garter belts.
Camisole and robe haven’t arrived yet, maybe in future..
I just love, love your articles.
I love cami’s and teddies and think that every transgender women should own a stunning nightie to sleep in…..also never forget that men are visual creatures …hehehe.
All my love ..Elaine xoxoxox
Thank you for your helpful lingerie suggestions for us t girls. I feel very fem wearing these delights. I also love wearing silky nylon full brief panties, slips, garter belts and silky sheer stockings mostly in black, silky chemises, nightgown, and satin pajamas too. I love wearing my silky lingerie while I sleep on satin sheets. It all feels so sensual to wear together and be surrounded and encased in all these silky fabrics. Pleasant dreams.
This is fantastic
I am really thrilled by this advice and items of clothing
Lucille, you are a treasure and I love you
keep it all coming
After reading this article I realized that to much of my pleasure that I own at least one article from each item that is shown. I can assure you that the more of these items that you wear the more feminine and will feel. If it’s your goal to be a real girly girl, you need them all every day. You will find out that it isn’t you that owns them, it’s them that owns you and they will call for you to wear them all the time.
Hi Lucille, sorry to say that I don’t find thongs sexy. I’m a pantyholic
And have a very large collection of the most delicious colours and fabrics.
I love my panties to be highcut & lace edged.
I do have a few pairs of tights in black and nude but I prefer to wear
Stockings, I have lots of different colours especially the tops. Some
I wear with suspender belts others are hold ups.
Bras and camisoles are also in my collection & I wear these when
Dressed as Joanna.
Love. Joanna xx
