We know it can be stressful trying to find the perfect outfit for your boudoir session. Choosing a boudoir outfit is a personal decision that depends on your individual style, body type, and the vibe or mood you want to convey. Here are some steps to help you pick a boudoir outfit:
Consider Your Comfort: Prioritize your comfort above all else. When you feel comfortable, it will reflect in your confidence and overall appearance. Choose something well-fitting that highlights your best assets.
Identify Your Style: Think about the style or theme you want for your boudoir shoot. It could be classic, romantic, vintage, modern, edgy, or anything that makes you feel beautiful and empowered. Select outfits that accentuate your favorite features and make you feel confident. If you’re unsure, consider trying different styles to see what flatters your body type the most. You want to highlight your best assets, not hide them. Wear something that will bring out your personality.
Colors and Fabrics: Choose colors that complement your skin tone and fabrics that you love and that feel good against your skin. Lace, silk, satin, or sheer materials that are extremely soft often work well for boudoir shoots, as they can create an elegant and sensual look.
Accessorize: Accessorizing can add a unique touch to your boudoir outfit and personalize your session. Consider adding jewelry, stockings, heels or other accessories that enhance your overall look. Don’t be afraid to incorporate elements that are meaningful to you. It could be a piece of jewelry, a favorite pair of shoes, or something else that adds a personal touch to your outfit.
Try Different Options: Experiment with different outfits before the shoot. Try on a variety of lingerie, robes, corsets, bodysuits, or even oversized shirts, and see what makes you feel confident and sexy. Be sure to bring along a variety of outfit options so you have a diverse selection, such as a one piece teddy or bodysuit, two piece such as a corset with high waisted undies, or a bralette with fishnet stockings. If you want to cover up more then an off-shoulder sweater or a blazer with bikini underwear are great choices.
Consult with the Photographer: If you’re unsure about what would work best for the shoot, consult with your photographer. They might offer suggestions based on their experience and the aesthetic you want to achieve.
Confidence is Key: Ultimately, the most important thing is to choose an outfit that makes you feel confident and beautiful. Confidence will radiate through the photos, making them stunning and empowering.
