MTF Crossdresser Wants his Dresses to Fit Better!

Hi everyone. New here. I'm a straight married crossdresser that loves to wear beautiful dresses, pencil skirts, heels and hose, and gorgeous lingerie. I have a nice collection of women's clothes but I'm tired of feeling like a sausage squeezed into my corset, barely able to breathe when I get dolled up.

I'm a size 18 women's, and have fairly slender legs with size 9 1/2 - 10 in heels, so the bottom half of my body provides a convincing female illusion. I need to lose about 50 lbs to get down to a size 12 dress, and get rid of my muscular shoulders and gut.

My dressing has been limited to clothing; I've never tried a wig or makeup because I know my masculine upper body will ruin the look. I want to change that, and if I reach my goal I will treat myself to a full male-to-female transformation / makeover service.

I can't wait to see what I will look like fully transformed! Wish me luck!

    Thanks for your good wishes! Maoribadger, I'm 5'11", 232 lbs right now. I think I will still be healthy at 182 lbs. Probably much healthier than now!

    Thanks for your kind wishes. Why don't you like pantyhose?

    Good luck!
    In the meantime, a little tailoring of bigger sizes can help create the illusion without the uncomfortable sausage feeling!

    Thanks, 365! I'm favoring wrap or sweater dresses right now because they are fairly forgiving. I'd like to buy off-the-rack sheath and bodycon dresses. Your suggestion to tailor them is great, but I joined here to tailor my body to the dresses, not the other way around!

    Lishe, if you buy better hose, they can be very comfortable. I have worn them all day under my men's suits many times so I speak from experience. Try Hanes Silk Reflections High Waist. The waistband never rolls down and they feel marvelous on the legs.
