Understanding Your Style

The first step in selecting the ideal boudoir outfit is understanding your personal style. Are you drawn to classic elegance, or do you prefer something more daring and edgy? Take some time to browse through inspiration boards and gather ideas that resonate with you. This will serve as a solid foundation for choosing your outfit. Want some inspiration?

Variety is Key

Having variety in your outfit choices for a boudoir session is essential because it allows you to showcase different facets of your personality and style, and capture various moods and aesthetics. Variety is also fun, it allows you to wear something expected and also step outside of your comfort zone and try something new and exciting! Ultimately, having a range of outfit options adds excitement and creativity to your boudoir experience, resulting in a more dynamic and personalized collection of photos.

Enhancing Your Features

When choosing a boudoir outfit, it's essential to consider how different styles and cuts accentuate your body's natural curves and features. For example, a lace teddy can beautifully highlight your silhouette, while a flowing robe can add a touch of elegance and mystery. Opt for pieces that make you feel confident and comfortable in your skin.


I always walk my clients through what to wear. My clients have access my exclusive client closet, which is over 300 pieces to choose from, sizes ranging from xs-4x! There are so many options and variety. My client closet takes the pressure off my clients worrying about bringing the perfect pieces to their session. We always start your session in the client closet and have you try on a variety of pieces so you can start to get a feel for your favorite pieces and styles. Then we craft your outfits selections so you have pieces that make you feel amazing and give you great variety throughout your session!

Current Fashion Trends in Boudoir Photography

Boudoir fashion is constantly evolving, with new trends emerging each season. Here are some of the latest fashion trends in boudoir photography:

1. Romantic Florals

Soft, delicate florals are making a comeback in boudoir fashion. Floral prints on silk robes or lingerie can add a touch of romance and femininity to your photos.

2. Sheer Elegance

Sheer fabrics continue to be a popular choice for boudoir outfits. Whether it's a sheer bodysuit or a lace chemise, these pieces offer a hint of seduction without being too revealing.

3. Vintage-Inspired Glamour

Vintage-inspired lingerie with lace detailing and retro cuts evoke a sense of timeless glamour. Think high-waisted briefs, corsets, garter belts, and couture robes for a classic look.

4. Bold Colors

Don't shy away from bold colors like deep reds, emerald greens, or vibrant blues. These hues can add drama and sophistication to your boudoir photos.

5. Playful Accessories

Accessorizing can elevate your boudoir look. Consider adding statement delicate body jewelry, chains, angel feathers, handcuffs, or even adding something like ice cubes or honey to complement your look.

5. Classic Pieces

I love classic teddies and neutral black outfits against a stunning backdrop or silk sheets, or a fun accessory to add a little something extra to the timeless piece.

Final Thoughts

When choosing your boudoir outfit, remember that the key is to feel empowered and beautiful. Embrace your individuality and don't be afraid to experiment with different styles until you find the perfect ensemble that reflects your inner confidence.
