If you’re a crossdresser or transgender woman, you know how tricky it can be to strike a balance between sexy and stylish – especially as you get older.
Does that mean you need to turn down your sex appeal after a certain age? Absolutely not! Everyone deserves to feel sexy and confident at any stage of life.
However, dressing sexy isn’t necessarily about wearing mini skirts and sky-high heels, especially as you age. Remember, there’s a fine line between sexy and slutty!
The key is to present yourself in a way that’s both stylish and sexy, while complementing your age and body type.
In this blog post, I’ll share my top 3 crossdressing and MTF fashion tips to help you embrace your sexy side at any age.
Rule #1: Show Some Skin (Just Not Too Much)
While short skirts and low-cut tops are undeniably sexy, it’s important not to go overboard. Here are a couple of guidelines to keep in mind:
- Your skirt should be no shorter than fingertip length when you stand with your arms at your sides. This ensures that you’re not revealing too much skin.
- Your top should show no more than 40% of your bust. This allows you to show off your assets in a tasteful and classy way, without overdoing it.
Remember, dressing sexy is all about finding the right balance between revealing and concealing.
Rule #2: Find the Right Proportions
Proportion is a crucial factor in how your clothes work together in terms of length, width, size, and volume. For example:
- A short skirt paired with a short top tends to look overtly revealing.
- A long skirt with a long top can appear frumpy.
- A full skirt with a full top may add visual weight.
- A tight skirt with a tight top can create an unflattering, sausage-like appearance (unless you have a flawless body!)
It’s important to strike the right balance in your outfit, so you should avoid going too far in any one direction.
If you opt for something tight or revealing, you should balance it out with the rest of your outfit. For example:
- A short skirt should be paired with a more covered top
- A skimpy top should be paired with a more covered bottom.
- A tight skirt should be paired with a fuller top.
- A tight top should be paired with a fuller skirt.
Rule #3: Wear Luxurious Fabrics
The fabrics you choose to wear is the final piece of the sexy puzzle.
When you hear the word “slutty,” you might picture a spandex skirt, a barely-there glitter top, and patent leather stripper boots.
On the other hand, “sexy” is often associated with luxurious fabrics such as silk, velvet, lace, and cashmere.
When shopping for clothes, look for fabrics that are rich and sensuous – rather than cheap and tacky.
Final Thoughts…
The bottom line is that you can look sexy and feminine at any age. Just be sure to keep it classy.
As always, I’d love to hear your thoughts on this topic. Please leave me your comments below!

You are so right about proportions. I am forever working on balancing top and bottom. Shoes/boots can also make such a difference soany comments on balancing footwear with clothing would be really helpful, Lucille. Reckon l was pretty successful with the looks captured in the 2 photos. Tx
Trixie, you look good if that’s any feedback.
Hi Laurie

Hi Lucille,
I try to dress like the proverbial girl
Next door. I shop at M&S and Simply Be and look for smart modern casuals
that are ok for a young 70 year old.
I don’t like tarty clothes or ones that
make you look old.
Just bought some gorgeous 4″ heeled

Love your articles.
Ps my boobs are getting bigger after following your course.
Love Joanna x
Hey 70! I’m 71 & like your honesty of my recent photos. ..please & thank you!
Been dressing for 55 yrs, evolved to this look, mature, & hopefully tasteful,yet alluring. Not that I am trying to attract any one ,married 35 yrs.
I ask my wife, that way she feels comfortable while we are out.
Dana
I rely on my wife for feedback as well. There is not much I enjoy more than a day out dressed as my wife’s BFF, so her comfort when out with me is paramount.
BTW your presentation is flawless in my opinion.
Jill
Love your photo. You are beautiful. Wish I could look as good.
Thank you so much. Makeup makes all the difference.
Jana
What a beautiful smile. Now that’s sexy!
Dana
Thank You
Great advise!!! A trans-woman can and should always dress stylish and appropriately no matter what age they are. I wish the GGs would take the same advise. Just look around when at the mall. Most CDs are probably the classiest dressers among all the ladies.
Nice photo. You are beautiful.
Ive aways thought ive done pretty good at this, but dont know if any pictures actually portray it! Lol
For most part I dress subdued
Your comments on dressing for us more mature is very helpful. As a mature gurl I love to look sexy but in a more refined way. Skirts to just the knee or just a little above. As we age our legs don’t always look as great as once they did. 🙁 I find your tips helpful, would love to be a full time gurl but is not possible . In an case thank you and enjoy Darling
You are absolutely right!
