How to Choose the Perfect Boudoir Lingerie
Finding the right boudoir lingerie can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. Here’s a simple guide to help you choose pieces from Earthly Venus that will make you look and feel amazing.
Find Sets that Make You Feel Beautiful
Sounds obvious, but I’m going to say it anyways! All of our bodies are so different, and you deserve to find pieces that compliment your own unique shape, size, and colors.
Get Your Measurements
Walk into a local lingerie boutique and ask them if they can size you for bras. You’ll be able to use these measurements to find the right sizes anywhere you shop.
Don’t Over-Focus on Comfort
While some might say that comfort is key to confidence, I like to say “beauty is pain.”
But genuinely, for a boudoir photoshoot you’ll only be wearing the each look for 5-15 minutes each. So if there’s a set that looks stunning on you that you’d never be able to practically wear elsewhere, your session is the perfect occasion for you to finally embrace it.
Embrace Your Personal Style
Your lingerie should show off your personality and reflect your personal style. Whether you prefer elegant and understated or bold and daring, if it speaks to your soul, go for it!
Don’t Be Afraid to Experiment
Your photoshoot is a great opportunity to try looks, styles, and accessories you’ve maybe been afraid to try before. Play around with looks you wouldn’t normally go for. Ask the people who work at the boutiques what they love. You might find something new you really feel hot in.
Frequently Asked Questions about Boudoir Lingerie
What Not to Wear to a Boudoir Shoot?
When planning your boudoir shoot, avoid pieces that don’t fit well or make you uncomfortable. Ill-fitting lingerie — especially thigh high tights — can ruin your confidence and the photos. We see ourselves in the wrong set and assume there’s something wrong with our bodies, when actually there’s something wrong with the lingerie!
Stay away from anything too tight. While it can be tempting to go a size down, anything too tight will squeeze your body and push you out.
Oversized un-done looks look amazing on camera, but stay away from getting anything too large if the item is meant to be fitted.
What is Best to Wear for a Boudoir Shoot?
The best pieces to wear for a boudoir shoot are those that make you feel confident and sexy. Most clients wear lingerie sets, but the sky is the limit! I’ve had client’s wear robes, jeans, cosplays, their partner’s t-shirts, or nothing at all.
