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.

well I don’t own all of them in your list but I do agree I own thongs but hot lace ones I used to own a robe a long time ago I just need a new one I don’t own pantyhose but I have black tights with a floral design on the sides from the hip to the ankle I use them for my steampunk out fit and I don’t need a shaping cami I’m all ready skinny and have a flat tummy with a little definition in the musicals and mostly I just recently had a fitting dune for a bra fitting at Nordstrom and found out I was wearing the wrong band size I was wearing a 34C and got measured a 32C better fit better experience then going to Victoria’s secret and don’t use the add 4 5 method isn’t accurate just use the inches that your under bust is the correct way to messier your band will for me it is if any thing I needed to do for my self that as it makes me happier gives me the support and fit I need and helps with posture to especially with scoliosis it helps also it helps make you look slimmer and a cup size bigger so worth it. The best thing I did for my self this week.
I agree with almost everything except the lace thong. I enjoy thongs, but I learned the hard way, lace trim is great, lace is not. The problem is the “openings” in the lace trap tender skin, This applies to all pantie styles. You also have to be careful about how wide the gusset is (bottom part of the panty) to make sure it will conceal everything. Nothing worse than a TG Camel Toe!
I also prefer thigh high stockings to panty hose, but that’s just me.
Ever since i started reading your tips on how to fit in tg woman my life has change alot and were was i before . Thank you very much for helping us . I always try out everything you said and it totally work for 100%
You are so right Lucille about the pantyhose. I own 2 pair of sheer black ones and the feeling on the legs are just incredible. Haven’t really be able to get used to a thong but I keep trying. I know that my next purchase is definitely going to be a satin robe. Thanks as always for your helpful hints. Look forward to them
I have to agree and have every item on your list. It is nice to be able to wear the bra under most of my clothes as well and I think being able to wear a sexy lace thong can change your feelings and attitude throughout the day. I love to relax in the evening in my silk robe and feel it rub against my smooth legs as well
First of all, what on earth is mastectomy? Sounds something medical to me. I might try a cami and as for thongs, I use a gaffe to hide my erm gaffes. Not keen on tights, but that’s only because I feel that they are awkward when going to the toilet and with stockings, just feel like they are too short but I think it’s just that I am not use to the stockings.
I agree I have the black bra and love it. My favorite though is not so much pantyhose, but nude or black thigh high stockings with my sleek panties. Love wearing those 6″ heels with the stockings as well. Still working on the breast and increasing their size.
As always Lucille I love all your articles and your attention to detail. I own pantyhose, panties, bras, waist cincher, and I like the Idea of satin robes. Keep up the good work girlfriend. Hugs and kisses……Tammi
