Tips for wearing a skirt in public

Wearing skirts is the dream of many cross-dressers. It is a kind of clothing instantly associated with femininity and boosts the cross-dressing experience as a whole. However, as we are not so used to it, there are a few things to keep in mind while wearing skirts outside. The rules are simple, but following them helps you avoid some embarrassing situations.

Start by choosing a skirt that suits your body type, To grant a proper feminine figure. And remember that wearing a skirt means more exposure, so you must be extra careful. I’ll tell you all the things you need to know, so make sure you read this article if you’re a first-timer. You may find these tips to be a real game-changer.

1- Make sure it fits your body type

There are many different types of skirts out there, all of which are feminine. The same is true regarding body types, as women come in various shapes and sizes. Your body is unique, and you can feminize it in your way. But certain types of skirts will look better on you, depending on your body type. The important thing is to choose wisely, following that logic, to boost the feminization effect. Remember, you’re aiming for a natural feminine shape that resembles an hourglass. And choosing a skirt that has this kind of effect on your body is the best alternative. Let me explain to you how.

If you are thin and small:

It’s best to avoid anything too big, as it overwhelms your frame, leaving little space for proper feminization. I recommend the use of hip pads if that happens to be the case, so a slim miniskirt will be able to improve your curves. Keep it plain and simple as a means of making it effective. You’ll look feminine, and that is what matters when it comes to skirts.

If you have a curvy body

Then you won’t have many difficulties in finding a lovely skirt, since most of them suit a body with natural curves. Still, there is a specific kind of skirt that can improve your look even further. I’m talking about pencil skirts, which are tighter on the waist. This cut highlights your curves, making your frame look even better and sexier!

If your frame is closer to an “Apple” shape

It means you’re a little bit chubbier on the belly, with a waist that is not so well-defined. But it doesn’t mean a skirt won’t look good on you! On the contrary, a high-waisted skirt perfectly fits this kind of body. The ideal length would be from the middle of your body to just below your knees. If it flows away from the center of your body, it will create a more well-defined waistline and do wonders to feminize your frame.

2- Take care of your legs

Wearing a skirt means your legs will be more exposed than they would be in skinny jeans. Many cross-dressers are okay with that at home, but showing off their legs in public can cause a little commotion. It requires some confidence to do so, but a few things I’ll mention here may improve your self-esteem and help you become more confident. First, let’s start with the classic method for making your legs presentable in a more feminine way. High-denier hosiery is one of the most popular methods among cross-dressers. I recommend a double layer of pantyhose that matches your skin tone if that’s the case, as it creates a cleaner effect. However, try black stockings if your goal is to make your legs look slender and highlight their silhouette. Depending on the size of your skirt, you might choose to wear knee-high tights, as they have a similar effect.

Still, I recommend shaving if it’s too hot outside or you want a more natural look. Use creams to make your skin look smooth and prevent razor burns, and use a bit of moisturizing sunscreen to protect it from the sun. This way, your legs will look stunning, sexy, and feminine. It tends to increase your confidence, allowing you to show them off in public in addition to your skirt. Keeping your legs visible while en-femme is one of the main advantages of wearing a feminine skirt, granting you a few positive stares. So, if you take proper care of them, you might be able to enjoy all the feminine freedom you want.

3- Use proper underwear

Your legs aren’t the only thing exposed while wearing a skirt. Your underwear might become visible if you are not careful, resulting in a rather embarrassing situation. Any minor misstep can show what’s under your skirt, so ensure you are appropriately dressed. Avoid masculine underwear at all costs, but feminine lingerie isn’t a good option either. Go for something more straightforward, as long as it is not too small. Thongs are okay, as long as you tuck them correctly.

Speaking of that, I’ll use this topic to address that issue as well. Skirts are remarkable for being prone to showing some of your manhood if you know what I mean. Because of that, tucking is an essential part of wearing a skirt in public if you want to avoid awkward situations. It prevents people from immediately clocking you and discovering that you’re a cross-dresser. Most of our sisters would prefer to avoid such a situation, making tucking an essential aspect of wearing a skirt.

Besides, it’s a topic somewhat related to underwear in general since some panties and thongs are designed for that purpose. Gaff panties are more effective and comfortable, making them perfect for skirts. Another good option would be some of our silicone fake vagina pants, which go well with pantyhose and match most underwear.

4- Watch your body language

Remember that masculine body language can be pretty inappropriate while wearing a skirt. While in “boy mode,” we tend to occupy a lot of space and spread our legs all over the place. Most people don’t even seem to notice, as it’s a behavior we learn in this society. And because of that, it’s hard to “Unlearn” this kind of thing while presenting en-femme. We don’t categorize it as masculine body language and behavior until we see a woman doing the same and think it’s weird. But when it comes to skirts, there are much bigger problems for us to be concerned about.

What we know as “Manspreading” only happens because men don’t expose what’s under their pants, but wearing a skirt makes us vulnerable. We have to watch out for how we sit, so we don’t show anything by accident, and I also want to recommend you pay attention to your walk. Bigger steps are more likely to show your underwear, which is inappropriate in most public areas. If not for the potential embarrassment, avoid that because of the chances of breaking the illusion.

If something of that sort ever happens to you in public, people will likely notice that you’re a cross-dresser. Not even the most advanced feminization techniques would ever be able to hide that fact in that case. And that’s why practicing your feminine walk is something so important. Shorter steps and movement in your hips should do the trick. But if you want a more in-depth explanation of this kind of technique, take a look at this video:

5- match it with other accessories

Accessories go well with skirts, and some of them can come in handy for first-timers. The most apparent function would be to keep your skirt in place. Remember that they are designed for a feminine frame, and even shapewear fails to adapt our structure to them completely. As such, they tend to fall from our waists and move out of place more often than we would like them to. Hip pads can slow down that process, as they increase our hip-to-waist ratio, but they are not a permanent solution. But we have some options to help us with that, the first being using belts.

The premise is simple, as they do what a belt is supposed to do: hold things in place. The tighter they are, the better, as in some cases, they serve as secondary shapewear, but the size should match the skirt. In other words, miniskirts go well with thinner belts, while oversized skirts can be combined with big straps. It’s a matter of proportion, complementing the look. The other accessory that I wanted to talk about is the shoulder straps. Not every skirt is compatible with belts, but straps can find their way into almost anything. If you secure them properly, they won’t fall, and you’ll gain some extra fashion points.

Skirts are a symbol of femininity, so they naturally draw the attention of cross-dressers. Many of us had a magical moment while trying one for the first time, but wearing them outside can be pretty challenging. However, if you read this article and follow my tips, you won’t have a hard time. It’s a matter of building confidence and making the right choices! Did you ever try to wear one in public?
