Clothing and Shopping

In this episode, Elle talks about her experiences learning how to dress herself again after presenting as a man for 30+ years. For trans feminine people in particular, clothing is a really big deal as we go through transition. One of the consequences of rigid American masculinity is a severe restriction in fashion creativity within the norm. For Elle, and for many trans people who present as women, getting to wear a wardrobe that feels more true, is one of the sun parts of going through this process. Elle talks in this episode about the things she has learned about how to dress her self, and where she shops as a woman who is tall and thick. Some of her favorite stores include: Asos, Old Navy, Nordstrom Rack, Target, Lane Bryant, H&M, Amazon / Zappos. Chat with her at TWATpodcasting@gmail.com
