A place to discuss Sapphic fashion! Masculine, feminine, anything in between-- for all queer women, this is the place.

For anyone who feels out of place or has trouble locating clothes or identifying styles which work for them. All are welcome! Whether you're feminine, androgynous, butch, or otherwise outside the norm, we're here to help you out!

Rules:

Rule 1 - Be Civil: This is meant to be a positive, friendly space. Let's keep it that way. Anyone who considers themselves to be Sapphic belongs here, and racism, xenophobia, ableism, homophobia, biphobia, and transphobia of all varieties are strictly disallowed.

Rule 2 - Restriction of Face-Only Selfies: If you post a face-only selfie, there has to be another photo that showcases at least half of your outfit.

Rule 3 - Restriction of Self-Promotion: No promotional posts or unsolicited comments. The only exception are outfit photos where a promoted item is worn and it or the shop is linked in the comments; and comments containing a link and additional text if explicitly asked for.

Rule 4 - Sexual Content and OnlyFans Spam: This is not intended to be a sexually-charged forum. The furthest into undress that would generally be acceptable here would probably be swimsuit pics, but even then we'd ask that you please flair them as NSFW out of courtesy for others. Obvious thirst traps will be removed, and any attempts to post overtly sexual content (Panty shots, cheesecake, pictures or videos of you groping your chest/crotch, advertising or baiting your OnlyFans, porn, etc) will result in an immediate ban.

Are Maxi Skirts In?

I work in a place where alot of people pass by and occasionally I notice some interesting fashion choices like NASA moon boots or one woman dressed like a princess. But recently I've been noticing more women wearing maxi skirts than before, the weird thing is none of the clothing shops near me seems to stock them so are they in fashion or are people just digging them out for winter?

Wearing dark colors makes me a lesbian? Lol

Hi there! I'm bi but lately I've been told by coworkers that I dress like a lesbian or give off lesbian vibes because of my color choices and penchant for cuffed jeans (I'm 5’4 and like selvedge denim.

Mind you, I have other markers like a septum piercing and wrist tattoos yet those don't garner as much attention.

Curious about what you all think.

Cycling attire

Does anyone else here hate cars and ride a bike all the time instead?

I've been wearing leggings and tanks (plus winter layers) almost exclusively now but I'm wondering what other outfits might be appropriate for a dyke on a bike. Any tips?

Should I snap a picture to get an idea of what we're working with? I'm honestly just kind of average height, kinda skinny but I have thick thighs. Most stuff fits me.

Anyway, tips would be appreciated!

Help!! Outfit for happy hour/drinks with coworkers?

Hi guys, I’m invited to happy hour with my coworkers after work in a few days and I have no idea what to wear. I work at a doctor’s office so we all wear scrubs at work. I never go out to bars because I don’t drink a lot of alcohol (I was planning on maybe getting a snack and nonalcoholic drink). Also, I have no idea the vibes of wherever we’re going because I guess we’re just going to pick a place on Friday (which also stresses me out because I’m the kind of person who likes to look at menus and stuff in advance so I don’t stress about being indecisive at the restaurant). I’m the youngest person in the office by about a couple decades so I’m stressing about wearing something too immature/inappropriate - I feel like a lot of my outfits lean more whimsical/colorful/patterned which might make me look childish. I welcome any suggestions! Thanks in advance :)

Is gender non-conformity pathologized by the mental health community?

I've long preferred shirts that result in straighter lines instead of the standard feminine boobs-waist-hips body shape. For pants, I tend to wear joggers or tapered-leg sweatpants. On reddit, people tell me that oversize clothing is in right now, or that ultra-baggy clothing is back in style. But I'm not talking about baggy clothes. I'm talking about clothes that fit, just without accentuating the feminine body shape. My boobs and hips stopped growing when I was 13 (I'm 34 now btw), so I've been able to fit men's t-shirts without issue.

From my point of view, it's just a preference for a more androgynous body shape. However, from a mental health perspective, dressing to de-emphasize bodily features is called body dysmorphic disorder (BDD). It falls under the umbrella of "hiding perceived bodily flaws", which is a BDD symptom. Although I don't personally wear a chest binder, I think binding would also fall under "hiding perceived bodily flaws", and therefore would also count as a BDD symptom.

It seems to me that many forms of gender non-conformity/queerness are pathologized as body dysmorphic disorder by the mental health community.

However, my therapist doesn't think I have BDD, so at least there's that. She said that most women my age (34) would dress to emphasize their curves, so it's odd that I don't do so, but that alone doesn't indicate BDD according to my therapist.

Need ideas for black tie gala

I prefer to dress more masculine but have no idea what to wear for black tie. I’m definitely not really one to wear suits, but I do like vests. Although I think a vest may be informal? Let me know what you guys think! Not really into jumpsuits either :/

I feel clueless when I’m looking at clothes.

I don’t know if this is normal, or just due to my mental state lol, but for as long as I can remember I have not felt a sense of style. So I am bisexual, but I felt like I might get some good answers here because someone might relate. When I was younger I was really girly and then in my teenage years I started wearing green army jackets and big t shirts with sneakers. That phase never really faded. I don’t know if it’s because I’m uncomfortable in girly clothes because sometimes I like the Feminine look, but I typically reach toward the comfort of big jackets and adidas. I don’t know. I’m just starting to feel comfortable with my sexuality and I’m wondering if this confusion with style has anything to do with my growth right now within that. Anyways! I know random! Pls let me know if this kind of post isn’t allowed. Thx in advance for any comments/tips on how to adjust my style.💗🫶🏻

Corset shopping

Hi ladies ❤️✨

Im trying to shop for a good quality, judget corset and im having issues finding a webbsite I could trust. I was planning on ordering from cider since their shop is really cute and well priced, but then I found a reddit chain with hundreds of comments that they dropship and their quality is poor.

So my question is where have you guys bought your corsets from and would you recommend that site? Why or why not?

For context Im looking for a simple black corset that is more like a belt around the waist. I would use it as an accessory and not as a tool to get a smaller waist.
