How to Dress More Feminine & Elegant | MTF Crossdressing Tips

Many people underestimate the impact of clothing, but the truth is feminine clothing can truly elevate your mood and make you feel like a beautiful girl/woman. It basically puts you in the right mindset to show up as your most feminine self, whether it’s that girlie girl, that sensual lady, that elegant queen, or anything in between. So, whether you already dress very femininely and want to see if you’re hitting all the right notes, or you’d like to learn some new tricks, here are some handy tips on how to dress more feminine.

Tip no.1 : Understand the Spectrum

Understanding the spectrum means dressing more femininely. To be successful, we must realize and accept that there is clothing usually associated with women and clothes traditionally connected with males. That manner, we can quickly and clearly comprehend that the further an object is from the masculine side of the spectrum, the more feminine it is.

Tip no.2 : Find and Wear Clothing with Flattering Fit

Find and wear clothes that fits well. Female attire is typically more fitting. Consider a women’s suit versus a men’s suit or women’s jeans versus men’s jeans; anything cut closer to the body will usually have a more feminine impression, but keep in mind that there is a difference between fitting and tight. Something fitting will sit close to your body in a pleasing way while still allowing you to move. Anything that makes it appear as if you are struggling to breathe or something might pop out and expose you means the fitting is not correct. Fitted clothing or feminine clothing also does not have to equal sexy clothing.

Though sexy feminine is a distinct feminine style, there is also romantic feminine style, which includes ruffles, a-lines, and flowy fabric. There are also more elegant or preppy feminine styles. Also, feminine clothing does not always have to be bodycon, and there are absolutely modest designs that exude femininity.

Finally, when it comes to fit, we must consider our body types. We should always examine our shape when selecting the correct fit. For example, if you have a larger bust or are normally heavier on top, an a-line bottom may help balance you out. If you are smaller on top and more pear shaped, you should wear lighter colors and emphasize embellishments like bows and ruffles on top. However, whatever you do, make sure to choose a flattering fit.

Tip no.3: Incorporate Dresses and Skirts

There is no denying that wearing more dresses and skirts is the most effective approach to dress more femininely. In most Western countries, dresses and skirts are the only apparel items that are specific to women. You can apply this lesson in whatever capacity suits you best because, while there are gorgeous dresses for events and nights out, there are also corporate dresses and skirts that are ideal for the office, as well as really pretty casual dresses.

Consider the summer dresses we can’t wait to wear as the weather warms up and that we enjoy wearing to go out or run errands in. Whatever the event or occasion, a dress or skirt may typically be incorporated.

Tip no. 4: Feminine Colors

The fourth tip is to use feminine colors and textures. Pink is, of course, the first hue that comes to mind. It’s perhaps the most girly color on the globe, whether you prefer a bright girly bubblegum pink or a more refined blush pink. Let us not forget about pastels. It’s as if they took the majority of hues and softened them into their most feminine shade. Consider lavender, pastel yellow, pale blue, pale pink, sherbet orange, and soft seafoam green.

Also, within the color area, experiment with prints. Floral designs, whether little or huge, are unquestionably feminine. Animal designs are also really feminine. I adore an all-black ensemble with a leopard print pump.If you’re new to animal prints, shoes are a wonderful place to start. Consider wearing an animal pattern dress if you want to seem extra beautiful.

Try an animal print blouse or skirt if you’re in the center. Color is followed by texture. In our current civilization, texture and unique materials are frequently disregarded. Silk, satin, velvet, lace, chiffon, and even a lovely sheer material will quickly make you seem and feel more feminine.

Tip no. 5: Incorporate more detailing in your clothing

Add more details to your outfit, such as ruffles, bows, draping, ruching, pleats, and keyholes. Incorporating details is most likely a way to make any item in any color more feminine. You must wear a black top, seek for a shirt with some draping, and if you want to hide a bit of a tummy, ruching could be your best friend.

You can dress up something that appears to be androgynous with frills and ribbons. This will completely reverse the situation. If you want to be seductive while being tasteful, a well-placed keyhole is the key, so don’t forget about detailing.

Tip no. 6: Shoes

Tip no. six is to favor feminine footwear. Always seek for ways to elevate your shoes, whether with a low or high heel. It’s one of the most effective techniques to feminize your appearance. Remember the spectrum: heels are completely feminine. Almost every manly shoe is flat. A heeled shoe is the furthest thing from that. However, if you are unable to wear any kind of heel for medical or personal reasons.

If you’ll be doing a lot of walking or simply despise heels, the next best thing is a very feminine flat shoe. Instead of going straight for sneakers, loafers, or something like a lace-up oxford, opt for a pointed toe flat or a flat with a print or an ankle strap, or perhaps a flat espadrille in the warmer weather. Whatever you do, remember to lean toward feminine shoes.

Tip no.7 : Accessories

Let’s go over four important accessory areas to which we should pay extra attention. The first is jewelry: one of my favorite ways to make an outfit feel wildly more feminine is with tiny jewelry. It just adds something to a look, from dainty rings to a beautiful anklet to a dainty necklace. Stacking a few necklaces can also give you a more glamorous or trendy look. Statement jewelry can also work when the rest of the outfit is kept basic.

A handbag is another fantastic accessory. Carrying a handbag adds a feminine touch because, yet again, only women traditionally carry them. Your handbag can be used to spice up a more casual clothing or to give flair to a more formal look. To make an ensemble more cohesive and pulled together, match your handbag to your shoes.

Hair accessories are another area and accessory that many of us ladies neglect. Satin scrunchies or hair ties make ponytails and buns look so much more feminine and deliberate. A good headband can also be quite effective. You can also consider a satin or pearl headband, especially on days when your clothing is generally quite plain or simple. You can also tie or clip a bow into your hair in a variety of ways depending on the look you want to achieve. So, if you haven’t already, experiment with hair accessories.

Finally, under the accessory category, there is fragrance. This is the finishing touch to any appearance. When it comes to appearing more feminine, keep in mind that there are great perfumes that smell amazing but are more unisex smells. They are different in the sense that they do not immediately make you think girlie or womanly, but others immediately make you think this is all woman and recall the sweetness, sensuality, or mystery of a woman.

Floral smells, such as rose, jasmine, and lily, are examples of perfume genres that deliver this. Fruity smells such as black currant, berries, pineapple, and others, or gourmands with a more delicious dessert-like mood. Consider vanilla, caramel, chocolate, marshmallow, honey, cotton candy, and so on.

Tip no. 8: Neckline

The final tip is to pay attention to necklines. Necklines are little cheat codes for a feminine appearance. The major feminine cuts or lines to look for include a v-neck, a high neck (also known as a mock neck), a scoop neck, and an asymmetric cut with only one strap or sleeve on one side. And, of course, we must mention the beautiful off-the-shoulder cut. Wearing any of these necklines and shapes may quickly elevate even the most basic casual ensemble. So, if you want to look more femininely, pay attention to your neckline.
