Ask Katie: Considerations as my body changes with HRT?

Hello Crystal,

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your journey with us. It’s wonderful to hear about the positive changes you’re experiencing on HRT. Embracing your evolving body is an exciting adventure, and I’m delighted to offer some guidance as you refresh your wardrobe.

When purchasing new clothes, there are a few key considerations to keep in mind to ensure comfort, fit, and style:

  1. Know Your Measurements: As your body changes, so will your measurements. Make sure to regularly take your bust, waist, and hip measurements. This will help you find clothes that fit well and highlight your shape.
  1. Emphasize Your Hips: Since your hips are getting wider, you can enhance this feature by choosing clothes that flatter and highlight your curves. Look for skirts and dresses with an A-line or fit-and-flare silhouette to accentuate your figure. Body-hugging dresses and skirts can beautifully showcase your curves. High-waisted pants and jeans are also great options as they draw attention to your hips and create a flattering shape.
  2. Finding the Right Tops: While you wait for breast development, you might want to consider tops that create the illusion of a fuller chest. Ruffled blouses, tops with patterns or embellishments around the chest area, and wrap tops can all be effective. Padded bras or inserts can also provide a temporary boost.
  3. Comfort is Key: Ensure that your clothing choices are comfortable, especially as your body continues to change. Fabrics with some stretch, such as jersey or spandex blends, can adapt to your shape and provide ease of movement.
  4. Experiment with Styles: Don’t be afraid to experiment with different styles and trends to see what makes you feel confident and beautiful. Try out various colors, patterns, and cuts to discover what suits you best.

Invest in Staples: Building a wardrobe with some classic staples is always a good idea. A well-fitting pair of jeans, a versatile little black dress, some comfortable leggings, and a few stylish tops can go a long way.

  1. Shapewear: If you want a smoother silhouette or extra support, consider investing in good-quality shapewear. It can enhance your natural curves and provide additional confidence in your outfits.
  2. Personal Style: Above all, let your personal style shine through. Fashion is a form of self-expression, so wear what makes you feel good. Your confidence and happiness will be the most attractive features of any outfit.

Remember, fashion should be fun and empowering. Enjoy the process of discovering what works best for you, and don’t hesitate to seek out advice or assistance from friends, support groups, or even professional stylists if you need it.

Wishing you all the best on your journey, both with your fashion exploration and your continued growth.

All the best,

Katie
