How to Go Shopping for Clothes to Hide Your Diaper

If you needed diapers and wanted to find and test new clothes to boost your confidence for going out in public, here are some steps you can take. Consider the type of clothing you feel most comfortable in and assess any specific requirements based on your diaper size, style, and how discreet you want your diaper to be under clothing. Look for clothing brands that offer options suitable for your needs, such as looser-fitting styles, high-waisted pants, dresses with forgiving silhouettes, or clothing designed with adaptive features. The clothes you wear when you aren’t diapered may no longer fit with the extra bulk of the diaper, so going shopping while diapered will help the most.

Before purchasing clothing, read reviews from other individuals who may have similar needs or experiences. This can help you gauge the suitability of the clothing for accommodating diapers and provide insights into comfort and discreetness. See if there are any thrift shops nearby that you could shop at. At the very least, you’d be able to see what styles work and what won’t work. When trying on clothes, opt for a variety of sizes and styles to find what works best for you. Looser-fitting garments or those made with stretchy fabrics can be more forgiving and provide comfort. Experiment with different cuts, lengths, and materials to see what you feel most confident in. I’ve always preferred darker clothing because they make leaks easier to hide and I feel far more confident in darker colors.

Layering clothing can help you feel more at ease and provide an additional layer of discretion. For instance, wearing longer tops, cardigans, or jackets can help camouflage any visible signs of wearing a diaper. You could also tie a hoodie around your waist/hips to adequately hide any kind of bulge. Once you've found clothing options you're interested in, try wearing them at home for extended periods. This will allow you to assess comfort, functionality, and how well the clothing conceals your diaper. Testing outfits in the comfort of your own space can help build confidence before venturing out in public.

Start by going to familiar places or low-pressure environments where you feel comfortable and gradually increase your outings, like a movie theater or a restaurant when it’s slow. By taking small steps, you can ease into wearing your chosen clothing in public while boosting your confidence over time. Incontinent people adapt to wearing diapers in public and I know you will be able to do so as well.
