Whether you’re a crossdresser or a MTF transgender woman, wearing lingerie is a great way to connect with your female self.
How can you NOT feel totally girly in a pretty lace bra and panties? But let’s face it… It’s hard to hide your flaws when you are practically naked!
In this blog post on transgender / crossdresser lingerie, I share some simple tips and tricks to help you look and feel your best in feminine lingerie. Read on to learn more!
1. Get The Right Fit
Nothing will destroy your image faster than saggy bra cups or too-tight panties creating a “muffin top.” That’s why it’s so important to choose lingerie that fits properly.
Here are some tips to ensure that you have the right fit:
- Your bra and panties should fit snug, but should never dig into your skin. (That’s how you get ugly bulges.)
- Be sure to check your bra cups – they should fit smoothly over your breasts or breast forms.
- Wrinkled bra cups means you need a smaller cup size. I got into depth on how to find your correct bra size in this article.
Having a hard time finding a bra that fits? Try the Flatter Me Bra by Itty Bitty Bra. It’s specially designed for those with smaller breasts and broader body proportions, so it’s ideal for crossdressers and transgender women.
2. Flatter Your Shape
The #1 secret to looking hot in lingerie is to hide your flaws while highlighting your assets. Here are some flattering pieces to consider:
Babydoll lingerie
Ruffled panties
Kimono Robe
- Babydoll lingerie – Babydoll lingerie is sweet and sexy and best of all, it’s great for hiding an ample belly or full midsection.
- Ruffled panties – Do you wish you had more curves? Ruffled panties feminize your figure by adding fullness to the hips and behind.
- Kimono robe – Slip on a sexy kimono to hide broad shoulders. Look for a sheer style so you can disguise your upper body while still showing some skin.
3. Complement Your Skin Tone
Color has a dramatic effect on your appearance (and your mood), so choose wisely.
The most important thing is to choose colors that complement your skin tone:
- White and black are popular lingerie colors, but they tend to make pale skin look even more pasty.
- Nude tones and bright colors flatter most skin tones.
Have some fun with this! Choose colors that make you feel sexy, girly, vampy – or whatever aspect of your personality you want to channel that day.
4. Be Impeccable With Your Grooming
Unwanted body hair can definitely distract from a sexy, feminine image. If you’re going to wear lingerie, be sure your grooming habits are up to par.
Here are some tips to consider:
- Shave or wax regularly.
- Exfoliate several times per week to avoid ingrown hair.
- Apply body lotion daily so you are always prepared to show some skin.

Hello Lucille. Thanks for your advice. To be and feel like a woman is so great and exciting thank you Hugging and kissing your Samantha .
You are a babe!
xoxo
Thanks dear. Being a woman is so amazing
Wow, super cute!
I’m very glad that you liked my comment.
In almost every reply, panties are a favorite. For myself, a standard item. Not sure what I would wear otherwise. I still have a pair of men’s briefs that somehow escaped eviction. So, every now and then I look at it and go, “UGH”. I don’t even want to touch them…maybe I’ll set them on fire next Independence Day! Who’s with me?!
Great idea Morgan! Maybe we should do it on New Years Eve though when the fire danger level is much lower. Just a thought.
You have very beautiful eyes, Cynthia!
At this point, you and I may be the only ones interested in barbecued briefs. Danielle has certainly voiced her support. So it’s a date! I’m putting a reminder on my calendar. As it gets close to New Years, I’ll post a shout out here on Lucille’s. I’ll be looking forward to it. Sometimes to move forward, we have to burn our bridges or in this case, burn our britches.
Hi Morgan, although I’m wearing panties 99% of the time I doubt that I would be able to live as a woman any time soon. My wife and I have an understanding where I can get fully cross dressed several days a week and for now I’m good with that. Burning all my men’s briefs is definitely going to be great though especially when my underwear drawer has more than 40 panties that are way more fun to wear and many of them are matching panty with bra sets.
Hi Cynthia! Doesn’t that sound like fun? I’ve burned things out of my life before but never old underwear! Do you live or aspire to be full time as a woman? Alway wear panties or just despise men’s underwear? I think this is a funny thing to talk about…but, PANTIES RULE!!
Burn them old men’s underwear with the yellow in front and brown in the back!!!!
Cut yer men’s briefs in half along the centerline, do likewise with yer choice of ladies’ panties, sew them together on the centerline, and go as half-and-half on Halloween! Complete with half-beard, etc. From yer lovely photos, I don’t think a half-bra would quite work, though…
I’m liking the idea of burning them. In fact, maybe there should be a brief burning rally in protest for equality and freedom from stereotypes like how women did, burning their bras in the 60’s. Transwomen’s Liberation.
Right on girl!! BURN them!
My bra is my fav. I love all sexy lingerie.
Hi Lucille,
Thanks for the informative blog. I do my best to regularly keep my skin smooth and soft as I wear lingerie daily. My feminine grooming habits is a big part of my daily routine.
Hugs xo
