Title: What are some ways to hide or make curves go away?
Post by: PeterSteele on May 15, 2016, 01:39:33 PM
I'm just wondering cause my body is really curvy. I'm not in Testosterone or Estrogen Blockers yet.. Is there anything I could do to make them go away or maybe a little bit go away before I ever get on Testosterone since that will be awhile.
Thanks

You might try mens pants one size bigger.
Mens pants usually have a straight cut so may help.
Going too big might look saggy.

Second hand store could be a good source, you might try some.

Straight cut jeans seem to be the best to hide curves and generally give you a more masculine appearance. Always try jeans on in a shop though to find the best fit. I find mens sizes to be a lot more complicated than women's.

There are also specially designed clothes to hide curves that I think you can buy from Underworks.

Straight cut jeans and/or other pants.
Many collar shirts that are just not form fitting and not tailored will work well in masking the upper body.

Funny, I have always found men's sizes simpler... I never did manage to figure out women's clothes in the years I tried to be slightly more femme...
I agree with straight cut pants and having them fit on your widest part... in my case it's my swimmers thighs.
Binding and button down shirts that are straight will help with the top.

I wore compression shorts to smooth out my hip curves. If you sit the waistband right on the curviest part, and wear your pants just above that, you should look fine.
