The female figure has long been a subject of attention, discussion and inspiration. While male ideals are often portrayed as chiselled and rippling, the female silhouette, by comparison, is often softer, more curvaceous and more supple.
Models, movies and modern art all centre around the female body, which can place a lot of pressure on women and female-presenting individuals to live up to the expectations that society has around female beauty.
But what can you do if you don’t exactly have the most feminine frame? Or if you’d like to accentuate the feminine elements of your physique more?
In this article, we’ll outline some of the ways that silicone bodysuits can be used to emulate the female physique and how you can make yourself look more feminine in just a few steps. Whether you’re looking to enhance your femininity, or you’re just curious about crossdressing in Australia, this article is for you.
How bodysuits can feminize your frame
Quite simply, bodysuits can emulate the female physique with built-in curves, structures and shapes that more closely resemble a traditional feminine shape. Additionally, they can help to provide tucking support, so that your front profile gives more of a female look.
Whether you want something subtle, or you’re aiming to achieve a full, hourglass figure, there’s a wide range of silicone bodysuits for you to choose from to suit your needs.
Choosing the right bodysuit
Selecting the right bodysuit depends on your unique needs. You can enhance waist definition, accentuate your hips, slim down your legs or add more size to your behind – it all comes down to what you’re trying to achieve. You may only want a lower-half bodysuit, or an upper bodysuit, again, depending on the look you’re going for.
It can help to have a few female bodies in mind before you reach out to a bodysuit store like DS Bodyskins, so that they can point you in the direction of a suit which meets your needs.
Layering
While this article is about bodysuits, you’ll want to look into layering, too. Consider clothing and accessories like padded bras to help sculpt your body into the physique you want. This step typically comes after you’ve acquired the bodysuit you wanted, so that you can utilise shape-enhancing clothes and items that accentuate the elements of your bodysuit, or fill in the gaps if your bodysuit falls short of your goals.
Tucking
Of course, part of the female body is its genitalia. Having visible male appendages can quickly unravel the desired look you’re going for, and this is a benefit provided by bodysuits. Through gentle compression in the lower abdomen and padding in the right place, you can emulate a flat front and present more femininely.
What fabric should you choose?
Not all bodysuits are created equal. We recommend that you opt for a silicone bodysuit, one that is ideally made from hypoallergenic 100% food-grade (TPE) silicone. Firstly, this will ensure your bodysuit is safe for prolonged skin contact, so you aren’t at risk of irritation or allergic reaction, which is non-negotiable.
Silicone also mimics the natural texture of the skin, creating a seamless, photorealistic look. Then you have the stretchability and compression of silicone, which assists in hugging your physique and moulding to suit you in a comfortable way.
As an additional tip, look for bodysuits that have adjustable straps and snap closures to give you added support in achieving the right fit for you.
Confidence
The reason you should be using a silicone bodysuit in the first place is confidence. A bodysuit should make you feel more yourself, and more confident, when walking through the street and living your life. This should be your primary consideration when choosing the bodysuit for you. A good rule of thumb is that if the bodysuit makes you feel more self-conscious or embarrassed, it mightn’t be the one for you.
Find one that accentuates your natural features and aligns with your desired figure, while still maintaining realism.
All-in-all, a bodysuit (particularly in this instance) should help you to feel more feminine and to embrace the female side of your mind, body and spirit.
Final thoughts
Short of surgical intervention, bodysuits are the next best thing when it comes to achieving a feminine silhouette. Few other tools can change your appearance so quickly, realistically, and affordably, which is why we think they’re a fantastic tool to add to your toolbelt.
By choosing the right fit, material and complementary shaping techniques, you can find the perfect bodysuit for you and your needs, to transform your appearance and step into your feminine confidence effortlessly.
