You might be surprised to hear this but…your wardrobe is not that important for how I take photographs! So, please, please, PLEASE don’t stress out over your boudoir outfit ideas.

In this article, I’ve compiled boudoir photo ideas/outfits to ease your nerves and help you decide what to bring to your photo session.

My Top Styling Tips And Boudoir Outfit Ideas

MY NUMBER ONE BOUDOIR OUTFIT RULE IS:

DO NOT BRING BOUDOIR OUTFITS THAT YOU DON’T LOVE!

I can’t begin to tell you how many women show up with boudoir outfits to say, “I don’t like how I look in this one, but I’ll leave it up to you!” 

Let me be a bit blunt, if you don’t like the boudoir outfit, you won’t like photos of yourself in said outfit – leave it at home.

The point of boudoir outfits is to showcase your authentic self!

If wearing thigh-highs…

Buy them 1-2 sizes too big according to the size chart on the back to avoid a thigh muffin top 😉

If you will be wearing lingerie…

Get professionally fitted! I recommend going to a local lingerie boutique to have yourself fitted. OR, if you’re interested in online ordering, True & Co. has an incredibly helpful website and quiz.

Avoid tiny busy patterns… 

They are often lost on camera and a bit distracting, so try to avoid them.

Incorporate a variety of pieces…

Variety is best! Bring something formal, something casual, something super textured, something fun, something more modest, something black and sleek…you get the idea! More is more!

Think about the “safeness” of your choices, too. Bring at least one outfit that feels safe & comfortable, and then push yourself to the edge of your comfort zone – aligned with your intentions.

Pretty & Pressed…

Make sure your wardrobe selections are ironed to avoid wrinkles and cut all the tags off your sheer items.

Consider Artistic Nudes

For a super easy, low maintenance, and free wardrobe option 😉 there are bodyscapes/nudescapes!

When in doubt, bring in some of your favorite wardrobe items and let me style them for you!

How To Flatter All Figures

There is no “right” body, just the banging body you have – and that we get to adorn in beautiful, sexy boudoir outfits and celebrate!

Check out boudoir outfit ideas for a variety of body types and figures below!

Curvy Bodies

BRING ON THE FORM-FITTING ITEMS!!

I adore bodysuits, tight dresses, and nothing at all…. especially for voluptuous bombshells. We often see curvy women trying to cover up more, but often that has the opposite effect they think it will. We’ll pose the hell outta you!

Flat Booties

Opt for thongs, as they tend to make a butt look fuller than full-coverage bottoms or G-strings. I also really love cheeky bottoms. Play around in the mirror with different styles to see what you like best.

And don’t worry, I’m a PRO at creating curves in posing where there aren’t any otherwise!

Thin/No Curves

Form-fitting options or simply nothing work great, as I can pose you to make you look & feel bodacious.

Small Chest

Underwire bras & balconettes are lovely options, as well as NO BRA AT ALL.

BTW: small boobs rock! So please don’t feel the NEED to create extra “oomph” unless it’s something that concerns you.

Mom Boobs

Bring your mom boobs my way! If your breasts are a bit lower or “floppier” than you’d like them to be, snag a bra with great support, or a form-fitting bodysuit to flatter them.

Surgery Scars & Stretch Marks

My personal belief is that scars tell a story!

Sometimes, however, clients wish they didn’t have to be permanently reminded of that story, while other clients embrace their scars. For this reason, I will never edit out a scar or stretch mark unless a client specifically requests it.
