What To Wear

What To Wear

Clothing, partial clothing, and implied nudity can all be sexy so plan your clothing items around what your comfort level is. Bring tried and true items you already have and feel beautiful while wearing. If you plan on shopping, make sure you’ve tried the clothing on, moved around, and love it. You will look the sexiest when you feel confident and good inside. Keep in mind, this is ultimately about what you want, what you like, and what you want to see yourself in.

Your clothing should reflect your taste and personal style.

Bra and Panties

Most importantly, bring a varied selection of bra and panty sets to choose from. Start with basic black and then add colors and patterns. Bras and panties can be photographed alone or paired with any of the other clothing items or accessories you bring.

Lingerie

A baby doll nightie, vintage slip, teddy and/or camisole always photograph well. Corsets with thigh high stockings, a garter belt, and heels are super sexy too. Start simple and grow more extreme from there. Think about what colors look good on you. Maybe even ask your fiance/husband/boyfriend what outfits he likes or what colors he prefers on you — not suspiciously of course!

Accessories

You can easily modify the look of your outfit by changing your accessories. Accessories include jewelry, scarves, hats, stilettos, boots, gloves, fishnets, stockings, garter belts, etc.

10 Bonus Clothing Tips

1. Focus on quality over quantity. Fewer outfits means less time in the dressing room and more time shooting. Only bring the stuff that really makes you look amazing.
2. Bring your clothing and lingerie on hangers with a garment bag over the top. Don’t stuff it in a duffel bag! This will reduce wrinkles and fold lines.
3. Clean the bottoms of your shoes (and feet) just in case they appear in a photo.
4. Cut tags and make sure security devices have been removed from new purchases.
5. Avoid skiing the week before your session! Small minor bruises from everyday activity are easy to remove in post-processing, but large bruises have to be hidden with your clothes.
6. The magic of Photoshop stops at tan lines. Schedule your session before you go on a sunny summer vacation. If tan lines are unavoidable, bring clothing that will minimize or cover them.
7. Make sure to shave your legs and take care of any other unwanted body hair before your session.
8. Make sure your mani-pedi is fresh and compliments your clothing colors and styles. French tips, golds, and neutral colors look really nice. Avoid bold colors as it will become of the focus of the photo.
9. Opt for lacy, sheer demi cup bras over full coverage t-shirt bras.
10. Finally, come to the session in loose fitting clothes to prevent dents or lines on your body.
