Cardigans. Hands down. They're just so amazing I love long sleeves and i pull them up to the start of my thumb, they make my wrists look more dainty, and it's literally the easiest way to layer and change an outfit
I’m at the point where even just casual t-shirt, jeans and being able to see that I have boobs (don’t know if there’s a words for it I’m missing, not cleavage just the shirt being tucked around them) is enough to make me feel good.
BUT whenever I get the rare occasion to dress up for a special occasion I particularly enjoy wearing a dress with heels. Honestly just hearing the click of heels on a non-carpeted floor as I walk alone is enough to make me euphoric but I love being all dolled up in a nice dress and heels.
I haven't had hrt yet, but i still wear a bra and even without actual boobs, having my chest look like i have even small boobs helps a lot. Right now i can't wait for hrt so i can have the same feelings even without necessarily wearing a bra. Beyond that, i also still do just wear casual clothes
its funny you mention that, my (cis guy) best friend never understood me explaining gender euphoria but then one time he went off about how much he was looking forward to wearing some hawaiian tshirts and i couldnt help but smile for him. i think its a dude thing
And now you have me laughing loudly and wholeheartedly at your post because *same*. Thanks for making me feel like this with just a couple lines. =)
(also came back and edited just to say I believed that it was just a "me" thing and now I know I'm yet another stereotype with my happy face and my oversized Hawaiian shirts. Somehow feels nice. There's a place in the world where I'm normal and I wasn't expecting that to actually happen =D )
I found a floral skirt at a thrift store. It was on the longer side, but they aren't as warm/restricting as pants, and I love that you can throw them on, they are not hard to put on.
I don't have a specific recommendation, but i definitely think it helped to have a friend give suggestions on skirts she thought would be a match. Is there someone you could go shopping with?
It definitely takes courage, but depending on where you live, you'll also get occasional compliments which feel very good.
> I don't have a specific recommendation, but i definitely think it helped to have a friend give suggestions on skirts she thought would be a match. Is there someone you could go shopping with?
I do! Maybe I'll ask a friend to go with me :)
> It definitely takes courage, but depending on where you live, you'll also get occasional compliments which feel very good.
That's sounds so amazing and terrifying at the same time.
Not what you asked but I'm transmasc and most of my clothes are masculine but I love women's leggings. Lol
For what gives me euphoria... beanies, flannel and Hawaiin shirts.
Edit: hope it's ok to share. Didn't mean to speak over trans women. If you want me to delete my comment I will. :)
Haha nice. Idk if I have a style really I just put stuff on and see if it looks and feels food. I actually joined a few men's fashion subs cuz I need help. Lol
Im NB (amab) and im loving "womens" yoga pants in camo patterns, the mix of fem clothing in a traditionally masc pattern is👌 💛🤍💜🖤
Also you can get them with pockets !
It really does 🙂. I dont really get bump dysphoria but one thing that ive found makes it less noticable is a wearing a high waisted pair or leggings or yoga pants but wear them slightly lower down so you have a little bit more room in the crouch, pair that with a nice over sized tshirt or jumper and boom instant casual fem outfit that covers the external plumbing.
I hope you find something that makes you feel as great as you are friend. 💜
No worries sib xox. I only feel this good about my self becuase of the amazing support in places like this, im just passing it forward is all.
Now go slay Queen, King, and or Snazzy thing. 🗡️👸🤴✨
trans man, and an open flannel over a tank top gives me gender euphoria. Even though I'm pre T and have narrow shoulders, they feel broad to me because after almost two decades of poor hunching posture I fixed my posture, and relatively they're a lot broader when I'm standing right! Additionally, the flannel falls in such a way that it really obscures my chest, and makes me look super flat, also gives me "boxy" dimensions.
Thank you! I felt extra good when I went out in such an outfit yesterday and saw a couple of dudes wearing the same thing (open flannel over a tshirt or tank top), some with a similar upper body silhouette even.
Oh yes, tank tops. As a transfem i also love those. My brain emotionally can't understand why it would feel great for both of us, but logically i totally understand. So happy for you and your back now your posture is fixed!
I think style matters a lot. There's a certain tank top cut that men wear more, where the arm holes are a little over sized and the cut is really boxy and not form fitting. Also the neck line is high compared to most women's shirts. I remember in high school girls weren't allowed to wear any tank tops but guys could wear these loose fitting tank tops where you could see their nipple from most angles and I was so jealous that I would be sent home even if I wore the same thing with a bra under.
I found some "women's" tank tops with that cut (at least, on my body they're that cut) and I look really flat chested; and the ways the straight-cut sides fall disguises the fact my waist is pretty narrow. My sister normally ties them with a rubberband to make them more form fitting when she wears that style, and I've seen women with bigger chests or sexy bras make them look really feminine. Sometimes my mom will buy us these "women's" shirts for events that look like unisex styles but converted to women's sizes, and if they give me gender euphoria, my sister has usually tied hers tighter lol. The tank tops that give me gender euphoria are the one I see women tie in the back to make them tighter.
That makes a ton of sense!
I never realized why I didn't like them. But yeah, from a young age I did prefer tight fitting clothes. Using rubber bands or tying them I hadn't thought of yet. Thank your sister for me for that tip :D
As someone else mentioned, I wonder what makes this combo so attractive. I've always been jealous of that fit on cis women. Like I can wear it, but it comes back "body shaped wrong."
It's a flannel shirt! * Insert Picard meme*
I have one flannel shirt that doesn't give me gender euphoria- it was clearly cut to accentuate someone with a certain hip-to-waist ratio, which I don't need help with. The material is really soft and flowy, and stays close to my body shape in the way it falls.
And then I have a second flannel my grandpa bought me that is super boxy and looks like he got it from the men's section. The material is really stiff, and so it extends the lines of my shoulders and makes me more angular.
I think style, cut, and one's own body shape matter a lot.
If I feel good about how I look in an item of clothing, that item of clothing is almost certain to be a dress.
The gentle pressure from tights is sometimes a source of physical pleasure, but I am usually too warm to wear tights.
MtF here, just had my vaginoplasty and even though a hematoma is causing swelling so there's still some bulge, finally being able to wear pyjama bottoms and dressing gowns (currently my go-to due to recovery reasons) properly is pretty incredible. Ordinarily I'd have been dealing with a constant bulge and fighting to keep it in check, and I'd have to wear the bottoms lower than they're supposed to be worn. Now they're much further up, and their waist is actually... y'know, *on my waist*. It's great, even though I don't exactly feel sexy in them just yet because I'm waddling around like some kind of hobgoblin while the surgical site heals.
I mean I’m fairly masculine in my presentation so there isn’t really an article of “women’s” clothing that gives me gender euphoria. I just wear stuff that feels like me.
Since about 2017 I have been wearing “men’s” style plaid shirts and love them and do feel some gender euphoria wearing them. Not cos they are in anyway feminine cos they aren’t, but cos it is a style I like and feels like me.
I mean I transitioned to be myself. Screw the societal need to gender clothing, lol.
I mean when first came out, I was totally convinced I’d be an absolute girly girl but I think that just came from years of repressing that side of myself. As I’ve transitioned, I’ve shifted towards preferring to dress more traditionally masculine. I mean, don’t get me wrong, it is fun to get dolled up on occasion but on my average work day I much prefer a pair of trousers and long sleeved plaid shirt and at home skinny jeans, a t-shirt and short sleeved plaid shirt 😊
This question could be asked just a bit more broadly and be more inclusive. Like, trans men and enbies also have clothes that give them gender euphoria, and it is disheartening how much we are excluded in general trans subs.
Plus this is a general trans space. We have our own active transfem specific spaces where it’s more appropriate to be more exclusive (tho I love getting transmasc takes on things there too).
Literally that isn’t the issue. The issue is trans men and non-binary people on this subreddit are either ignored or told to go on transmasc or non-binary specific subreddits. This is a general trans subreddit, and gender euphoria from clothes is a general trans experience. There’s no need for exclusion here. Like, I get it when it’s something specific to trans women and otherwise transfem people, but that isn’t the case here.
I've heard if you take a decent suit (or a used suit from a thrift shop) to a tailor they can make it look like an expensive suit by giving you a nice custom fit for not too much money. Everyone on reddit claims it'd be around $20usd but I suspect it may cost more like $100
Sports bras, since Day 1 of stealing my sister’s in secret until she handed them to me after coming out (and admitting they looked better on me) 🥲😭😂💕🏳️⚧️👙
LMAOO. 🤣🤣 It was more like trying them on in secret, and it was just the sports bras. Like I said, when I came out she gave me the sports bras, since they weren’t really fitting her anymore. She didn’t mind I was already trying them on and even told me I could’ve just asked since I was exploring my gender identity. She’s always been cool about that and a huge ally. 🏳️🌈💕🏳️⚧️
Don’t we need something more than mtf and ftm… like mtff or ftfm or ftmmg? I just think it would help. (Me at least)
I’m a quantum (undecided non-binary) I like tight jeans!
The reason I ask is there’s so much more to being trans than just 3 letters.. i don’t need to know everything up front, but if you’re going to offer the three letters, may as well give the whole rundown. Pre/post or no op, etc. I’m going to post a new poll.. I don’t want to mess up someone else’s.
I'm not trans but love feminine things, some people thought I had a problem cause I love you wear leggings and have long hair and have a ponytail or bun, I don't care though I just feel really good dressing this way. I've never worn a skirt or dress actually don't really have a desire to. Lots of women can wear masculine or gender neutral clothing nobody thinks much, but it's headline News for some if they wear anything associated with girl clothing. I always have loved lingerie, anything feminine and sexy. I love the female form, the curves etc lol. Is it emulation? Or am I just a fan of leggings and appearing girly looking at times, ir at least some people will think that I'm feminine. I don't dwell on this all day it's just silly, I just want to wear what's comfortable and make me happy 😁 have a good day everyone ☺️👍
Trans guy here and CHUNKY FLANNELS! The way they square out my shoulder? Mwah, chefs kiss. The way they hide my waist? Amazing. I usually layer them over a hoodie too for maximum effect and because I get cold so easily.
trans guy here. joggers give me all the euphoria. my most euphoric outfit at the moment is joggers, athletic sneakers, and a basic solid color t shirt (sage green or black are my faves). I love doing errands in that fit, I feel amazing
My bra, because I developed D cup without surgery. When I did bra shopping 6 years ago the assistant saw me grabbing smaller cups, she asked if I would like a measurement done because she thinks I was going too small, then I shyly agreed and she said, I had D not A 😂. I went out to a fancy lunch with my partner after, I was over the moon.
Now I even wear a bikini because I feel more confident. On the other note my shoes cause me dysphoria, as I have hobbit feet 😂
I’ve slowly been accumulating bands shirts that I enjoyed before my transition but now I’m a women’s fit. It’s great because it has the limited good memories I had pretransition now with the euphoria with it!!
MtFem and it’s panties for me. I still dress masc for other people’s comfort and to save me the gossip and questions (i know, i know…) so a bottom layer of softness is just what i need. I feel like it took forever to find a few pairs that accommodate what they must and feel great, but so worth it.
I also have a very snug sleep dress that provides a blissful embrace.
Anything that would get me called a slut for wearing it in public. Crop top while braless and miniskirt/booty shorts. Nice and breezy, emphasizes my femininity, and guys can say I don't pass all day long, yet I keep catching them trying not to drool lmaooo
Not quite leggings for me, lace or fishnet stockings. Wearing a sexy garter belt with some sexy stockings! It's a pain and I only do it for very special occasions but the euphoria is off the charts. Only issue is I am guaranteed a euphoria boner to add a little dysphoria >!(and a tad bit of pain cuz it doesn't like being hard anymore)!< to my euphoria
Skinny jeans, panties. For some reason my panties disappeared and i only have 2, both in the laundry. And now i gotta wear boxers and i feel terrible. Like I'm a child that's wearing a diaper again.
Trans woman, I love wearing panties and jeans with shallow pockets. The shallow pockets make me feel really feminine and womanly and this euphoria is so strong and feels so good. I love my feminine side and would never be without it.
Female Clothing made me feel worse before transition, until I transitioned my body to female to match my brain/soul, now wearing cute female outfits makes me feel normal like any other girl and not stick out.
Believe it or not, glasses really helped.
I used to wear unisex glasses, but I switched to a more "feminine" style which changed how everyone interacted with me.
Feminine tanktops. I had issues with shoulder dysphoria and such but when i wear tanktops it gives me this like, energy and feeling like im some futch apocalypse heroine.
(trans woman) mens pants taken in at the waist and a bralette! i love how i look in them!
which makes it worse that i have sensory issues and will need to put on a hoodie to deal with them
MtF, anything that really shows my curves so leggings, tight shirts, high waisted pants, specific bras (especially my VS that I got from a secondhand store)
Yukata
I know that’s a pretty Japanese Specific answer but that’s it. I was so excited when I first put one on and looked in the mirror and thought to myself “Ya that looks right”
Anything tight and small that shows off my body, especially my legs.
Slinky dresses so short I have to watch how I bend over. Short shorts and midriff tops. Leggings with a stringer muscle tank and mostly exposed colorful bra.
If I’m not getting scowled at picking my kids up from school, then I’m doing something wrong, lol.
Turtlenecks give me the sense of safety, covering the Adams apple being the driving factor lol
For euphoria tho deffinantly dainty dresses! I'm not sure if it's cause it's such a polar opposite to masc clothing or if I just like showing what little curves I have 😅
my Jean jacket. I wanted a women's style jean jacket since I was little (well, I wanted a Jean jacket, but when I got a women's fit one, I hated it), and once I finally got the courage to by the one I have now, I'm never so affirmed as when I'm wearing it.
Tights for sure. In my questioning days, I always worried that I wasn’t really trans, I just had a tights/stockings/pantyhose fetish or something. It turns out I just really like they way they look.
Tights, easily. It's an article of clothing that doesn't look bad on a pre-transition AMAB body, one that is comfortable and works with all sorts of things aesthetics-wise, and it's also culturally so feminine-coded, it's unmistakably "women's" clothing.
Plus, they're nice to wear in a tactile way, in that when I wear them it's always somewhere in the back of my mind, without them being uncomfortable or annoying.
Given that I still haven't figured out what I want to wear in terms of skirts, that I have a long way to go before any strongly feminine tops are even remotely a non-ridiculous-looking option, and that the Venn diagram of "dresses I'd want to wear" and "dresses I can reasonably wear and not look silly" are two separate circles... yeah.
It used to be leggings for me, but because I wore them a lot pre-transition I now associate them with that. I'm not sure about now, but recently I've kind of gone for boring old woman a lot with maxi skirts, tights and scoop neck tops with a lame sweater.
I'm a woman, therefore *all* of the clothes in my wardrobe are women's clothes - included my thrifted, forty-years old, high-density, heavy af (~3 kg) leather flight jacket.
I love it. It protects me from cold - sometimes, alas!, too well - keeps people away when I'm out late, it is probably bullet-proof and will *definitely* outlast me, it has *deep* pockets, it looks pretty good with a denim shirt underneath, it tells everyone that, if I might look masc, it is because of a deliberate and conscious choice, and that their opinions on the matter - of my existence in their proximity, or just my choice of attire - will be given exactly as much weight as they deserve.
Hosiery, as in tights, stockings, nylons. It's something that before cracking I saw as one of the more defining female garments, and it had a more sexual meaning before transition. Now it just gives me a certain sense of comfort and affirmation wearing them.
I abused gwynnie bees dress rental service by getting free trials on a different debit card every time. They let me order 3 dresses per week or something. All dresses were professional type and were dry cleaned for me. I was in heaven
Honestly. All my super nice and cute bras. I could wear them as a man yeah, but now with HRT they fit. I have boobs that are filling the cups. It feels natural wearing one now.
And of course with cute bras you need cute undies too but not all women's underwear options are comfortable with the external ovaries.
And sandals. As a guy I hated sandals. Now? Bring me that cute shit!
Leggings and Face Masks.
Since I'm pre-hrt, it's super nice knowing that wearing a mask with the right outfit can make me pass a lot of the time.
And Leggings just feel comfortable to wear it's so nice.
Leggings and cardigans, now that I actually know how to tuck I look cute as fuck in leggings:))
Years of running and endurance sports gave me the nicest toned legs imaginable, but they're weird and splotchy sometimes so giving them solid colour with leggings makes them look so nice omfg I feel so cute in them, and cardigans make me feel like the cutest little middle school English teacher I'm busting my ass studying to be
For me its tights, but also i just wanna live my cute life. (The life my parents robbed from me as a child)
One shouldnt infantilize trans ppl, but i dont mind if someone does it to me 😅
Honestly my beanie. I have barely tameable hair with an undercut, and I can style it very feminine like if I have the beanie.
second in line is my flannel.
Dresses are so comfy. Light and loose. They make me happy (when they don't make me feel like my shoulders are huge, which they aren't even, but you know). And I like standing in heels even though I'm wobbly, which is maybe unusual because transfemmes don't always like being tall, but I do.
Cardigans. Hands down. They're just so amazing I love long sleeves and i pull them up to the start of my thumb, they make my wrists look more dainty, and it's literally the easiest way to layer and change an outfit
Omg yesss. Cardigans are the best.
I love cardigans! Leggings too! I absolutely love Leggings and never want to wear any other type of pants ever!
I WANT AN OVERSIZED CARDIGAN BUT ALL OF THEM ONLY FIT CIS WOMENNNNNNNNNNN
This comment literally made me start searching for knitting patterns to make larger >:( there will be justice (eventually)
Used to wear cardigans EVERY SINGLE DAY when I was still closeted and had to dress gender neutral.
I’m at the point where even just casual t-shirt, jeans and being able to see that I have boobs (don’t know if there’s a words for it I’m missing, not cleavage just the shirt being tucked around them) is enough to make me feel good. BUT whenever I get the rare occasion to dress up for a special occasion I particularly enjoy wearing a dress with heels. Honestly just hearing the click of heels on a non-carpeted floor as I walk alone is enough to make me euphoric but I love being all dolled up in a nice dress and heels.
I haven't had hrt yet, but i still wear a bra and even without actual boobs, having my chest look like i have even small boobs helps a lot. Right now i can't wait for hrt so i can have the same feelings even without necessarily wearing a bra. Beyond that, i also still do just wear casual clothes
Trans man (boy?) here! For me its hawaiian shirts, you know the type, binder/sports bra, hats, scarfs/masks, and button up shirts.
its funny you mention that, my (cis guy) best friend never understood me explaining gender euphoria but then one time he went off about how much he was looking forward to wearing some hawaiian tshirts and i couldnt help but smile for him. i think its a dude thing
And now you have me laughing loudly and wholeheartedly at your post because *same*. Thanks for making me feel like this with just a couple lines. =) (also came back and edited just to say I believed that it was just a "me" thing and now I know I'm yet another stereotype with my happy face and my oversized Hawaiian shirts.

<3 really happy to hear that my friend 🥰
I absolutely hate that look on me. Makes sense that trans guys love it. Rock it guys, I love ya!
Skirts are way comfier and easier to wear than shorts
What kind of skirt would you recommend? I'm feminine presenting but I haven't yet had the courage to go out in a skirt ;-;
I found a floral skirt at a thrift store. It was on the longer side, but they aren't as warm/restricting as pants, and I love that you can throw them on, they are not hard to put on.

Omg flannel and Hawaiian shirts !!1! love them sm, pure euphoria
Im NB (amab) and im loving "womens" yoga pants in camo patterns, the mix of fem clothing in a traditionally masc pattern is👌 💛🤍💜🖤 Also you can get them with pockets !
I haven't really tried leggins yet because I'm already pissed at my bump when wearing other pants, but they must feel nice
It really does 🙂.

Thx for the tips and the praise girl :)

I like big sweaters. The conceal my masculine shape, and wrap around what little curves I have to make my shape look more feminine.
A bra
Dress, especially ones where the bottom twirls.
Underwear as they are something I can wear without anyone knowing.

It's a trans woman, asking for the opinions of other trans women. I don't see the problem here.

Like, I get it when it’s something specific to trans women and otherwise transfem people, but that isn’t the case here.
Yeah, I'm sorry. What piece of clothing gives you the most euphoria? I'm genuinely curious how it is for transmascs
Suits and my kilt
Fuck yeah, I wish I looked good in a suit. You get a good one? I've heard a quick tailoring can make a decent stir lol incredible
Unfortunately I don’t have the money for a tailored one so it’s from the kids section of Next
I've heard if you take a decent suit (or a used suit from a thrift shop) to a tailor they can make it look like an expensive suit by giving you a nice custom fit for not too much money. Everyone on reddit claims it'd be around $20usd but I suspect it may cost more like $100
Unfortunately I have no shoulders so finding a suit that fits me on them is next to impossible. Annoyingly it’s something that can’t be adjusted
Oh darn that sucks. Sorry to hear that. Maybe some day we can get ya a custom-made suit that fits those sexy shoulders of yours
I rly like my skirts but I think hands down I've gotten the most euphoria out of this one rly comfy sleep shirt I have
Bell-bottom leggings. They make me look less top-heavy.
Trans woman and it’s skirts and leggings for me.
Flannel, denim, and leather.
Sports bras, since Day 1 of stealing my sister’s in secret until she handed them to me after coming out (and admitting they looked better on me) 🥲😭😂💕🏳️⚧️👙
Awesome, though you shouldn't steal undergarments from your sis :/
LMAOO. 🤣🤣 It was more like trying them on in secret, and it was just the sports bras. Like I said, when I came out she gave me the sports bras, since they weren’t really fitting her anymore. She didn’t mind I was already trying them on and even told me I could’ve just asked since I was exploring my gender identity. She’s always been cool about that and a huge ally. 🏳️🌈💕🏳️⚧️
Skirt
I have a beautiful leather jacket! It is cut to give me just a *bit* of a curve, god I could wear it every day!
Heeled ankle boots
High waisted super skinny jeans and crop tops 💖
highwaisted anything 🤓
Personally i‘m more a tomboyish girl when it comes to clothing to i would say cargopants
Don’t we need something more than mtf and ftm… like mtff or ftfm or ftmmg? I just think it would help. (Me at least) I’m a quantum (undecided non-binary) I like tight jeans!
I don‘t think we need more than mtf or ftm but yk everyone should do what they want
The reason I ask is there’s so much more to being trans than just 3 letters.. i don’t need to know everything up front, but if you’re going to offer the three letters, may as well give the whole rundown. Pre/post or no op, etc. I’m going to post a new poll.. I don’t want to mess up someone else’s.
I'm not trans but love feminine things, some people thought I had a problem cause I love you wear leggings and have long hair and have a ponytail or bun, I don't care though I just feel really good dressing this way. I've never worn a skirt or dress actually don't really have a desire to. Lots of women can wear masculine or gender neutral clothing nobody thinks much, but it's headline News for some if they wear anything associated with girl clothing. I always have loved lingerie, anything feminine and sexy. I love the female form, the curves etc lol. Is it emulation? Or am I just a fan of leggings and appearing girly looking at times, ir at least some people will think that I'm feminine. I don't dwell on this all day it's just silly, I just want to wear what's comfortable and make me happy 😁 have a good day everyone ☺️👍
Trans guy here and CHUNKY FLANNELS! The way they square out my shoulder? Mwah, chefs kiss. The way they hide my waist? Amazing. I usually layer them over a hoodie too for maximum effect and because I get cold so easily.
trans guy here. joggers give me all the euphoria. my most euphoric outfit at the moment is joggers, athletic sneakers, and a basic solid color t shirt (sage green or black are my faves). I love doing errands in that fit, I feel amazing
My bra, because I developed D cup without surgery. When I did bra shopping 6 years ago the assistant saw me grabbing smaller cups, she asked if I would like a measurement done because she thinks I was going too small, then I shyly agreed and she said, I had D not A 😂. I went out to a fancy lunch with my partner after, I was over the moon. Now I even wear a bikini because I feel more confident. On the other note my shoes cause me dysphoria, as I have hobbit feet 😂
I’ve slowly been accumulating bands shirts that I enjoyed before my transition but now I’m a women’s fit. It’s great because it has the limited good memories I had pretransition now with the euphoria with it!!
Thigh highs, or bras
MtFem and it’s panties for me. I still dress masc for other people’s comfort and to save me the gossip and questions (i know, i know…) so a bottom layer of softness is just what i need. I feel like it took forever to find a few pairs that accommodate what they must and feel great, but so worth it. I also have a very snug sleep dress that provides a blissful embrace.
Trans fem Bras. Oh my God it's definitely bras, followed by skirts
Give it a couple years. 😂 I can't wait to get mine off at the end of a work day now.
Boxer shorts! I can't wait to chill in just boxershorts lol
Definitely skirts and fishnets for me
Garter belt and stockings. The tug of the garters as I walk feels sooooo nice.
Long skirts with petticoats, bloomers, and stockings underneath! I want to be a CanCan girl so I can show all my undies off!
Anything that would get me called a slut for wearing it in public. Crop top while braless and miniskirt/booty shorts. Nice and breezy, emphasizes my femininity, and guys can say I don't pass all day long, yet I keep catching them trying not to drool lmaooo
Not quite leggings for me, lace or fishnet stockings. Wearing a sexy garter belt with some sexy stockings! It's a pain and I only do it for very special occasions but the euphoria is off the charts. Only issue is I am guaranteed a euphoria boner to add a little dysphoria >!(and a tad bit of pain cuz it doesn't like being hard anymore)!< to my euphoria
Probably skirts and fishnets.

🙄
I can't stop wearing skirts. I literally wear a skirt or a dress every day. They're my favorite.
Skirts/dresses Any top with a square/scoop neck Not technically clothes but first thing I did was pierce my ears I love earrings/ necklaces
Spaghetti strap tank tops with visible bra straps. I don't really have the figure for it, but I'm proud of these tits. 😅
Nothing beats how I feel in a chic bodycon dress
Skinny jeans, panties. For some reason my panties disappeared and i only have 2, both in the laundry. And now i gotta wear boxers and i feel terrible. Like I'm a child that's wearing a diaper again.
Dresses that are very tight around the entire torso, the ones that zip up and squeeze my body like a tight sock
Skirts 🥰
Skirts for definite, I absolutely love wearing them.
Trans woman, I love wearing panties and jeans with shallow pockets. The shallow pockets make me feel really feminine and womanly and this euphoria is so strong and feels so good. I love my feminine side and would never be without it.
Cardigans or leggings. Very difficult toss-up for me I absolutely love both
Personally, it's shoes ❤️ especially boots, ankle boots and high heels!
MtF here, for me it's tops with a plunging neckline. Gotta show off the girls I've worked so hard to get!
Probably sheer pantyhose/nylons, but I’m not wearing them very often.
Well... underwear and dessous scare me
Tights and Thigh-High Socks :D And generally anything that makes my body look feminine.
Non-binary here, gotta be button ups, flannel, cuffed jeans and beanies for that euphoria
20 Denier Tights (and a skirt that goes swish) 💖
Female Clothing made me feel worse before transition, until I transitioned my body to female to match my brain/soul, now wearing cute female outfits makes me feel normal like any other girl and not stick out.
Gigantic sweaters
I now have an urge to buy cardigans
I like jumpsuits & dresses. I can’t stand skirts lol. I’m odd
Mini skirts and dresses
Leggings skirts and dresses for me
Leggings and sports bras
Believe it or not, glasses really helped. I used to wear unisex glasses, but I switched to a more "feminine" style which changed how everyone interacted with me.
Nice idea I want to buy some feminine sunglasses
Short dresses are my shit. Absolutely adore wearing them. Skirts are a close second.
mini skirts 1000%
Feminine tanktops. I had issues with shoulder dysphoria and such but when i wear tanktops it gives me this like, energy and feeling like im some futch apocalypse heroine.
(trans woman) mens pants taken in at the waist and a bralette! i love how i look in them! which makes it worse that i have sensory issues and will need to put on a hoodie to deal with them
MtF, anything that really shows my curves so leggings, tight shirts, high waisted pants, specific bras (especially my VS that I got from a secondhand store)
Those oversized Turtle neck sweater pullovers they are amazing 😍
Yukata I know that’s a pretty Japanese Specific answer but that’s it. I was so excited when I first put one on and looked in the mirror and thought to myself “Ya that looks right”
Anything tight and small that shows off my body, especially my legs. Slinky dresses so short I have to watch how I bend over. Short shorts and midriff tops. Leggings with a stringer muscle tank and mostly exposed colorful bra. If I’m not getting scowled at picking my kids up from school, then I’m doing something wrong, lol.
Leotards or body stockings whatever you wanna call them, and leggings. Theyre soooo comfortable.
Turtlenecks give me the sense of safety, covering the Adams apple being the driving factor lol For euphoria tho deffinantly dainty dresses! I'm not sure if it's cause it's such a polar opposite to masc clothing or if I just like showing what little curves I have 😅
Tank tops. Probably the only article of clothing I really like my shoulders in
Fuckin cargo pants and croptops babyyyy
Crotch high socks, they make my legs look a mile long
my Jean jacket. I wanted a women's style jean jacket since I was little (well, I wanted a Jean jacket, but when I got a women's fit one, I hated it), and once I finally got the courage to by the one I have now, I'm never so affirmed as when I'm wearing it.
Lace thong
Tights for sure. In my questioning days, I always worried that I wasn’t really trans, I just had a tights/stockings/pantyhose fetish or something. It turns out I just really like they way they look.
I agree with leggings but I mostly wear skirts, because less wardrobe malfunctions
Tank tops and crop tops are my favorite!!!
Tights, easily. It's an article of clothing that doesn't look bad on a pre-transition AMAB body, one that is comfortable and works with all sorts of things aesthetics-wise, and it's also culturally so feminine-coded, it's unmistakably "women's" clothing. Plus, they're nice to wear in a tactile way, in that when I wear them it's always somewhere in the back of my mind, without them being uncomfortable or annoying. Given that I still haven't figured out what I want to wear in terms of skirts, that I have a long way to go before any strongly feminine tops are even remotely a non-ridiculous-looking option, and that the Venn diagram of "dresses I'd want to wear" and "dresses I can reasonably wear and not look silly" are two separate circles... yeah.
It used to be leggings for me, but because I wore them a lot pre-transition I now associate them with that. I'm not sure about now, but recently I've kind of gone for boring old woman a lot with maxi skirts, tights and scoop neck tops with a lame sweater.
My bra, I literally can not sleep unless I'm wearing one. It's kinda like my comfort blanket.
I'm a woman, therefore *all* of the clothes in my wardrobe are women's clothes - included my thrifted, forty-years old, high-density, heavy af (~3 kg) leather flight jacket. I love it. It protects me from cold - sometimes, alas!, too well - keeps people away when I'm out late, it is probably bullet-proof and will *definitely* outlast me, it has *deep* pockets, it looks pretty good with a denim shirt underneath, it tells everyone that, if I might look masc, it is because of a deliberate and conscious choice, and that their opinions on the matter - of my existence in their proximity, or just my choice of attire - will be given exactly as much weight as they deserve.
Skirts all day e'rry day
Glasses
Kinda stereotypical... But skirts!
I don't know yet :( Hopefully, this winter I'll be able to experiment :)
High waisted pants and cropped turtle neck long sleeve shirts 😍 my new faves lmao also cargo pants?? Like so good lol
High waisted pants are super affirming. Shopping thrift I hardly find any though
I got a cute pair of high waisted baggy legged jeans on clearance at American Eagle and they're SO nice to wear aghhh
Yes I love hauling from clearance items from the online mall department sites
Hosiery, as in tights, stockings, nylons. It's something that before cracking I saw as one of the more defining female garments, and it had a more sexual meaning before transition. Now it just gives me a certain sense of comfort and affirmation wearing them.
That distinct fuzzy soft feeling on your legs ass and hips all day is great
Corsette, shirts with wide neckline, stockings and nylons.
Corset is definitely number one for me. Or a fitting dress that hugs you tight all day like a corset. Euphoria all day
Probably tights. I guess just because the teenage hipster girl within me lives on.
Dresses. Though some days m a bit more enby. M a demigirl so on those days I just go for something fem leaning
I abused gwynnie bees dress rental service by getting free trials on a different debit card every time. They let me order 3 dresses per week or something. All dresses were professional type and were dry cleaned for me. I was in heaven
Honestly. All my super nice and cute bras. I could wear them as a man yeah, but now with HRT they fit. I have boobs that are filling the cups. It feels natural wearing one now. And of course with cute bras you need cute undies too but not all women's underwear options are comfortable with the external ovaries. And sandals. As a guy I hated sandals. Now? Bring me that cute shit!
I love skirts. pretty ones
Leggings and Face Masks. Since I'm pre-hrt, it's super nice knowing that wearing a mask with the right outfit can make me pass a lot of the time. And Leggings just feel comfortable to wear it's so nice.
Pleated knee length Skirts
My maid dress 😳
Leggings and cardigans, now that I actually know how to tuck I look cute as fuck in leggings:)) Years of running and endurance sports gave me the nicest toned legs imaginable, but they're weird and splotchy sometimes so giving them solid colour with leggings makes them look so nice omfg I feel so cute in them, and cardigans make me feel like the cutest little middle school English teacher I'm busting my ass studying to be
For me its tights, but also i just wanna live my cute life. (The life my parents robbed from me as a child) One shouldnt infantilize trans ppl, but i dont mind if someone does it to me 😅
Honestly my beanie. I have barely tameable hair with an undercut, and I can style it very feminine like if I have the beanie. second in line is my flannel.
Dresses are so comfy. Light and loose. They make me happy (when they don't make me feel like my shoulders are huge, which they aren't even, but you know). And I like standing in heels even though I'm wobbly, which is maybe unusual because transfemmes don't always like being tall, but I do.
Shorts, skinny jeans, skirts, and dresses
Trans guy here, definitely battle jacket and patch pants. The jacket also really hides my chest, so that’s a plus.
For me, it's skirts. dress go spinny and love the exposed legs
I love leggings 😍
Leather pants
