Cross Dressers and our sizes

This is a question just for CDs, i appreciate some guys aren't interested so you can stop reading now.

My question is about getting the right sizes for lingerie and best places to buy from ..

As a married bi guy I have to be discrete and have always struggled getting lingerie to fit my body type, so, does any body know a place local to me that provides a measuring service, or alternatively, are there any other local CDs that would be willing to measure me?

Lastly, where do you buy from, in person via browsing or alternatively those places that will deliver to a locker?

Happy to get direct replies from those shy ones amongst us x

I use bondera for my sexy kit and Vinted for my outfits.

My panties come from a shop I can nip into.

Shoes are more difficult for bigger sizes

When I used to cd, I'd get random things from charity shops and primark and learned the hard way what fits and what doesn't, literally every fabric is different stretch or size so it's just a matter of kind of learning to eye things up for your body size and shape, remembering our bodies gain and loose size too, but a fabric tape measure gives you that almost basic framsize of your body structure, I ended up with soooo many garments of all sizes so I just used to give them away to other cd friends at the time, second hand are ideal for practice and stretchy covers most. Discretion wise, if there's someone you trust and go out with them and point out what you like and she/he gets them can be a fun day out and amazon lockers were ideal for me last year as I was passed from homeless shelter to homeless shelter. Long message but I like to be able to pass on my own experience, I do things the maximum difficulty setting so its easier for others . Have fun though, is the main part, everything here is practice, practice, practice

I took my own body measurements and looked up size guides on the internet. As I became more confident and tried bodycon dress styles I discovered I needed to go up one, sometimes two sizes.

A lot of my purchases were from Ebay and Amazon. ASDA and TESCO superstores have a good range of lingerie and shoes. It's always worth looking in charity shops.

Vinted is my go to at the moment.

As for sizing, its a guessing game. Like I can get into a size 14 knickers, but my cock hangs out etc, so I tend to go 16/18. Skirts im a 16 but tops a 20 due to build. Its just the case of guess till you guess it right, or if someone close whos dresses is will to meet and try their clothes on to gauge a size.

Try the M&S app, for most items there is a size guide, tells you what to measure and what dress size/bra size your measurements correspond to. Don't have to shop there but useful resource. M&S will also do a dra fitting for you if you are brave enough.

If like me you have broad top half and skinny lower you have to be careful, a bodycon dress can fit nicely up top but is literally a sack of shit down below. Better for me to go for A line or skater styles. Google is your friend here - Google dress styles for wide shoulders for example - you will get loads of advice.

Dresses, blouses skirts etc can always be returned if the size/fit is incorrect.

I use vinted for most of my stuff but it's largely a matter of trial and error sizewise. I take size 14 nickers but a size 18 basque fits comfortably and I wear a 40B bra.

For discretion I have items delivered to a local shop

Hope this helps

I buy from shein and temu nowadays as know my sizings. Deliver to locker or store

Pre covid

I went to two different yoursclothing stores over the years and said i was a cd but mot sure on size

Within - few mins i was in a cubicle being measured. I bought loads from there. I would visit meadowhall every week while in made mode and they would even have stuff saved they thought i would like. I would try it on (their insistence

I often go to asda/matalan and try on dresses/nighties. Just put a tshirt on too of your basket. Never had an issue but know clothes fit.

Been to several boots in male mode and asked about makeup as a cd. Given loads of advice and several makeovers (they offered) even though dressed as male. I did it in towns away from home so no one would recognise me

If you're unsure of sizes buy some cheap things from a charity shop to see what fits.

Alternatively you can buy and return most things from shops if you keep the label/tag on.

I tend to use

Vinted for most things to locker

Marks and Spencer click and collect or just buy in store nobody bats an eyelid

If you want to buy lingerie from a sex shop most have a changing room to try on

I occasionally use little women for bras a tad expensive but great fit and you can divert to a local post office to collect

Charity shops in posh places are the place to go! But generally I use Primark a lot, simple clothes (for a simple gurl!!) which are easy to replace. However I'd give their tights a miss!

I’ve used primark and peacocks regular, for clothes, lingerie and shoes as well as the big supermarkets.

This time of year is good to buy stuff because Valentine’s Day is coming up so there is a good excuse for buying ladies underwear, especially if there’s a card in your basket too 😁
