There\u2019s no doubt that transgender women are taking over the world by storm. And one of the domains that they flourish in is Instagram. If you\u2019ve been searching for transgender Instagram profiles<\/strong>, you should keep reading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please know that this was not created to say that the trans Instagram profiles we\u2019ll be sharing are the only ones worth following. We update this list from time to time<\/strong> so if we fail to include your favorite influencer, feel free to write their handles in the comments section below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Hunter Schafer (@hunterschafer<\/a>)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Hunter Schafer moved from fashion and youth activism into an acclaimed screen career<\/strong>.

\n
\"Hunter

Schafer’s visual world connects acting, modeling, and artistic experimentation<\/strong>. Editorial photographs sit naturally beside film promotion because clothing and image-making were part of her creative life before Euphoria. As she moves among very different screen roles, collaborations with designers and photographers continue to shape how each project appears in public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The feed feels carefully composed, yet its consistency comes from a genuine interest in performance, silhouette, texture, and character<\/strong> rather than from a single polished formula.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fashion shoots, rehearsals, stage appearances, advocacy, and quieter behind-the-scenes moments reveal how she has learned to shape her own public image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paper Doll adds a longer reflection to a story once told day by day. Across each format, theatrical energy and openness remain constant, allowing her to move through intense public attention<\/strong> without surrendering the voice that built her audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"Valentina

Sampaio’s historic firsts placed an openly transgender model inside publications and campaigns with enormous global reach. What followed is equally important: continued bookings, red-carpet appearances, travel, and advocacy<\/strong> turned those breakthroughs into a sustained career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her Instagram records that momentum through professional images and glimpses of the work surrounding them. Instead of remaining frozen in one headline, she appears as a model still moving through the industry<\/strong>, adding new chapters after the barriers she crossed began to shift. Each campaign confirms that her presence has endured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"Hari

Nef’s Instagram reflects a career built across runway fashion, acting, and writing<\/strong>. Costumes, film references, editorial images, and personal styling all draw on her interest in performance and cultural interpretation. A look rarely feels separate from the character, project, or idea surrounding it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her captions and public writing sometimes extend that visual conversation, revealing how carefully she considers presentation<\/strong>. The result is a portrait of an artist who treats clothes as part of storytelling, whether she is preparing for a role or appearing as herself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. Andreja Peji\u0107 (@andrejapejic<\/a>)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Bosnian-Australian model and actress<\/strong> Andreja Peji\u0107 first became internationally known for walking both menswear and womenswear runways. After publicly sharing her transition, she returned to fashion and expanded into acting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her Instagram mixes campaigns, personal style, travel, and reflections<\/strong> from a career that challenged rigid gender rules in modeling.<\/p>\n\n\n

Peji\u0107’s Instagram carries an unusual stretch of fashion history. Her early career crossed menswear and womenswear before she publicly discussed her transition, while later work brought acting, campaigns, travel, and a more personal approach<\/strong> to style. The photographs reveal continuity rather than a life divided into a simple before and after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Across the years, they record a model who kept working as the industry’s language around gender changed, giving the feed the depth of an archive as well as the immediacy of a current portfolio<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10. Munroe Bergdorf (@munroebergdorf<\/a>)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

British model, broadcaster, author, and activist<\/strong> Munroe Bergdorf uses Instagram as both a fashion platform and a space for social commentary. She has worked with major beauty and fashion brands, served as an LGBTQ+ adviser, and published Transitional, a book about identity, change, and the forces that shape our lives.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Glamorous

Bergdorf moves between fashion imagery and direct commentary on race, gender, media, and public policy<\/strong>. Beauty campaigns and polished portraits establish one side of her career, while interviews, advocacy, and posts connected with Transitional reveal a writer willing to examine change in longer form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The combination can be forceful because she does not separate public style from public argument. Her Instagram carries both, presenting a model and broadcaster whose image-making remains closely connected to the issues she chooses to confront<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
