Any ideas to find trans friendly clothing stores near me? Live in a fairly conservative place but don’t really have access to online shopping. Idk, just want to actually try a dress on somewhere.
Target is where I found my first dress. The staff were very friendly and helpful! Later a cis-ter and I went thrifting and found some cute stuff. That store even offered me a job working there :) After a few months I meet another trans woman working in the Target cosmetics and we became friends pretty quick! My city is pretty progressive and even a sanctuary but the state is terribly fascist. Try to be confident when you go and don’t stress too much! Anytime I need a confidence boost I’ll put on some fabulously femme trans music like popgoth’s
Sorry to disappoint, but I don’t know of anyone else quite like popg0th to recommend. Maybe Ayesha Erotic? There’s Against Me!'s lead singer Laura Jane Grace, which is a fairly well regarded band. Kim Petras you’ve surely heard about right? She was the first solo out trans woman with a number one hit in the US. Celeste’s soundtrack was written by Lena Raine and she also wrote some of Minecraft’s as well. Have you found any others which you like?
I started with fetish stores as they are used to it, and they always have good help for some reason.
Now I take a friend with me to try out new places. I’ve once had an angry looking lady so that’s pretty clear, but most of the time employees were vocal supporters.
That’d be the stores which sell personal lubricants, sex toys, and clothes for any local strippers or social media models in your area. Naturally they’re a great place to find some out till dawn outfits and dangerous heels. Just don’t expect that you and a friend will be allowed into the changing room together!
Sorry I didn’t get a notification. Here’s an example. It’s for buying outfits for sex clubs or for at home, but as I mentioned they often also have more normal stuff.
Yeah, my work (not a clothing store) says “LGBTQ+ friendly” on google maps in the about section so with a bit of luck maybe a local clothing store has that.
