Boudoir Outfit Inspiration

If you’re keen on booking a boudoir photo shoot but not sure on what to bring and wear, fear not! I’m here today to help you find some inspiration. I actually found the most fun part of organising our website photo shoot was shopping for the clothes, so I’m sure you wont need an excuse to hit the shops yourself!

 

To give you some ideas on what to bring, I thought it would be best to show you the looks we created at our photo shoot, and let you in on just where we purchased everything from. We kept to a rule of neutral, pastel or soft feminine colours (to avoid a trashy page three, 80’s glamour feel!) as this was the style we wanted our shoot to have. A classy, feminine and pretty vibe, with soft colours and natural light to really accentuate the features of our real women models for the day.

 

LOOK ONE

So onto look one, this all started when I found the kimono online at River Island, and the rest of the look was built from there up.

 LOOK TWO

 
Look two for Alex was made up from items she brought along herself. The midnight coloured lace cami and shorts worked perfectly with another kimono our stylist Charlotte had brought with her, and when Louise our hairstylist added a few extra flowers into Alex’s hair of complementary colours the whole look came together.

LOOK THREE

 

Look three was where having a stylist on set made things really fun. Charlotte had lots of left over tissue paper from making the paper pom poms, and wanted to use it as confetti! So for this look we knew we needed something bright and playful. TopShop was the perfect place for this, as there are always little bits than really can add a pop of colour to an outfit, even if its just a cute pair of socks.

 LOOK FOUR

 

This had to be the simplest of all the looks we shot. Comprising of just a body and a midi tulle skirt, but also one of the most striking! In fact, both Helen and Alex said they felt like princesses in this skirt! I think its just because you’d never really have an occasion to wear something like this, which is what makes it so perfect for boudoir. place the tulle creates lots of texture and soft layers, further adding to our soft feminine theme.
