TRANSform me

Gay men have long been con-sidered fashion gurus for our ability to accessorize and deliver frank advice with two snaps and a clap.

VH1’s new makeover show, TRANSform Me, takes the fashionably challenged and places them in the large, well-manicured hands of Laverne, Jamie and Nina, three fabulous MTFs who know a thing or two about expressing personal style.

This could have hot tranny mess written all over it, but think about it: when it comes to knowing how clothes fit, how a woman should curve and what’s in style, an about-town tranny had to learn the ropes from the ground up. She knows her shit.
