Robyn Electra is the co-founder of Gaff And Go, a pioneering and successful transgender lingerie, swimwear and accessories brand for pre-op transgender women, non-binary people and those who tuck.
“Aged 20, I realised I was transgender; I used very painful and unsafe methods to tuck to achieve a discreet and flat front. Later, my objective was to fill a gap in the market for underwear and swimwear for trans women, non-binary individuals and gender non-conforming people in order to tuck. I want to provide the wearer with the ultimate confidence and comfort and help keep the trans community safe, and with Gaff & Go, I’m proud to have achieved that.”
Robyn Electra was inspired to start the brand by her journey
Gaff And Go remains destined for continued success; designed by a trans woman with trans women in mind, Gaff & Go was the first brand to launch tucking one-piece swimwear, hand-sewn and specifically made for transgender women. The brand soon had 200,000 social media followers and has become a favourite among many of the Queens on the TV show RuPaul’s Drag Race. Robyn Electra continues to take pride in the quality of Gaff And Go’s garments.
“As a pre-op trans woman, with trans friends who tuck, I care deeply about the need and safety of our community. I understand dealing with the pressure of fitting into what society deems as “woman enough”, and I want to help others along their transitioning journey”.

The Gaff And Go collection also includes sportswear, with the Go Active Tucking Sports Brief & bras created from quick-drying, moisture-wicking cotton. The innovative brief gusset and front panel give the wearer confidence, whether at the gym, hiking outdoors, or practising yoga and the Gaff and Go Active Tucking Sports Briefs will keep you perfectly tucked (flat at the front) while wearing your favourite yoga pants, gym wear or shorts, it’s the ultimate training partner.
The sustainably manufactured briefs feature an anti-odour and antibacterial gusset, a logo-embellished elastic waistband and a breathable, soft feel against your body. The Special Limited Edition Gaff and Go Active Tucking Sports Brief offers a firmer hold and wider coverage around the front and waist for a more secure tuck while exercising.
The Gaff And Go collection is designed with comfort in mind while making the wearer feel sexy and secure.
Robyn Electra, a prominent figure within the LGBTQ+ community, is also the co-founder and CEO of Trans Celebration. Launched to Support Marginalised Trans Women, the charity is a trans-led, grassroots human rights and community organisation dedicated to highlighting issues affecting trans and gender-diverse people in the United Kingdom and improving the quality of their lives. Support includes assisting trans and gender non-conforming people to have access to clothes and gender-affirming products like Gaffs (Tucking Gaffs) and Binders to help solve the problem of gender dysphoria. Gender Dysphoria is when there is a mismatch between your biological sex and gender identity. The organisation works tirelessly to protect and promote the fundamental rights and services needed by our trans community.
