How do you get free clothing and accessories for a t-girl just starting out?

Does anybody know how to get new free clothing, wig, and accessories? I can`t afford even one set of women`s clothing and I`m still affraid to shop out in public on my own. Is anyone willing to donate new clothing and accessories or know of a place which collects such things for the LGBT community (specifically the transgender community)? I`m just beginning my transition and I`m not sure how to avoid gaps in transitioning while being significantly underemployed and employers unwilling to hire me. Can anyone please help? Thank you for your concerns, yes, I don't have much money to be spending on clothes or a wig, so how do I expect to afford any other aspect of transition, right? Well, I have medical insurance that covers that as far as therapy goes, which is doing fine, by the way...Unfortunately, insurance can't buy that cute skirt in the window...I have the therapist, I have the support network, I just don't have a way to get clothes which I think is also a very important step in transition...maybe not as profound as hrt or grs...but it starts with the clothes for me...anyone know where I can find clothes?

  1. Hello! Well, I very much doubt whether you would get anything for free, but sometimes charity shops and jumble sales can produce some really interesting items. Fancy dress suppliers on the internet often have some surprising inexpensive bargains, too. Just might be worth a look-see? Try to avoid the so-called "specialist outfitters" - they charge an absolute fortune! Good luck - and enjoy! Regards.
  2. You say you're just beginning your Transition. Ahh, try again. Transsexual people start Transition by seeing a gender therapist, a doctor or an endocrinologist, not by clothes shopping. If you are Transsexual, the last thing you need to be worried about now is clothes and a wig. And if you can't afford clothes, how do you expect to afford Transition? It costs many tens of thousands of dollars to Transition. The smartest thing you could do is seek out a gender therapist, and learn about the Standards of Care. http://www.drbecky.com/therapists.html http://www.wpath.org/documents2/socv6.pdf
