25 Wardrobe Ideas for Your Boudoir Photoshoot - That Are Not Lingerie!
Do you think that in order to book a boudoir session you need to wear lingerie? Are you not as excited about going out and spending money on something you frankly will only wear once? I totally understand! But let me tell you that you DO NOT have to go out and buy lingerie if it doesn’t suit you. If I’m being honest, even as a boudoir photographer, my lingerie selection is minimal!
So I totally get it, you don’t exactly want to go out and buy new stuff, worry about fit, and potentially ruin the surprise, right?
That’s why I came up with the following list of ideas. These are wardrobe items that you will more than likely find in your closet! And if you don’t have these already, the purchase won’t be quite as suspicious (or expensive) as fancy lingerie.
Alternative options to lingerie for your boudoir session
regular bra + panty set
fishnet stockings
body suit
robe (a nice one though, not a terrycloth one)
nightgown
set of nice pajamas
slip
thigh high stockings
Calvin Kleins
cute crop top
sexy pair of jeans
pencil skirt
sexy dress
cozy sweater
long socks
leather jacket
trench coat
sexy heels
bathing suit / bikini
lacy top
mesh top
booty shorts
your wedding veil
white sheet
nothing! implied nude / nude is always an option too!
See?! There are so so many options to bring! And the list can go on, I’m sure there’s other pieces I’m missing.
As long as your options a) make YOU feel sexy, b) fit well, and c) show YOUR personality, the possibilities are endless! And you don’t even need to go shopping.
So not that you know you don’t need lingerie for your boudoir session, let’s set up a time to chat! What would your dream session look like? Contact us and we can chat about what to expect in a session with us!
