Planning your outfits for a male boudoir or fitness photoshoot can be an exciting part of the process. Your clothing (or lack thereof!) plays a huge role in setting the mood, showing off your physique, and highlighting your personality. Whether you’re going for a classy and sophisticated look or sexy fitness vibe- here are some outfit ideas to help you get you started!

 


Athletic Gear

Athletic wear is perfect for a fitness-themed shoot, especially if you want to show off your hard-earned physique. Some ideas for outfits could be a tank top or compression shirt to show off your muscle definition on you arms and chest. Gym shorts and joggers offer a laid back and casual vibe and paired with a set of sneakers; captures the theme of the shoot quite well. Props such as weights, towels and water bottles add a special touch to the fitness theme of this style of shoot.

Ripped or Distressed Denim

The timeless combination of jeans and a white t-shirt is effortlessly cool and masculine. It’s a casual look that translates well to a boudoir setting while keeping a hint of mystery. Try:

  • Shirtless Denim: If you want to show off your physique, opt for a shirtless denim look. It’s sleek and sexy, while also maintaining a casual and candid vibe.
  • Open Button-Down Shirt: A button down shirt is great and can offer a variety of options from having it buttoned up, or showing off everything underneath. It’s simple yet versatile.

Boxer Shorts

For a minimalist and intimate boudoir look, choose well-fitting boxers or briefs. This look is super sexy and laid and while highlighting your body’s natural shape.

  • Black or Neutral Tones: Black, grey, or dark blue underwear creates a classic look, whereas white or neutral tones soften the vibe. Wear a spot of colour like red or blue for a more cheeky, adventurous look.
  • Minimal Accessories: This outfit is best kept simple. If you’d like to accessorize, a wristwatch or leather cuff adds a touch of interest.

Suit or Blazer Set

For a more sophisticated boudoir look, nothing beats a suit or blazer. This outfit highlights your confidence and brings an elegant, refined energy to your photos. Some styling tips:

  • Suit Jacket Only: Pair a suit jacket with either bare skin or a fitted t-shirt underneath for a suggestive yet tasteful look.
  • Dress Pants or Slacks: Wearing the complete suit minus the tie conveys a “relaxed elegance” that works well in a boudoir setting.

Resort style white shirt and jeans

For a more relaxed and laid back look- opt for a pair of jeans or light coloured chinos, paired with a white or light blue t-shirt. This offers a casual, coastal look and fits perfectly with outdoor photoshoots. 

Accessorise this look with a simple watch or beach towel.

What Do I Wear For My Boudoir Shoot?

Choosing outfits for your intimate boudoir shoot can be the most daunting step of the process.

The first thing to consider when choosing an outfit is to consider the theme of your photoshoot. Pinterest is a great tool for gathering images to create a mood board for your boudoir photoshoot. Start with typing in search terms like ‘boudoir photoshoot’ and look for images that you like. You can then narrow down your search terms further based on these images to come up with a concept for your shoot. 

Pay close attention to the style of outfits the women are wearing, as well as any accessories they use such as hats or baskets.

Keep in mind that while boudoir photography is often associated with lingerie- you don’t have to wear lingerie at all.

The idea of boudoir photography is to wear whatever makes you feel confident and sexy- whether that’s wearing a full length dress or nothing at all!

Where Can I Buy Outfits?

A boudoir photoshoot is a good excuse to treat yourself to a few new outfits! Depending on your budget and the outfit style you’re looking for, there are plenty of retail options out there. 

Shein is a great place to start for those looking to buy a variety of fun outfits on a budget. Their stylistic options are huge, and while their quality isn’t always the best- for a single use photoshoot, it’s perfectly acceptable. As they are an online retailer with quality being ‘hit and miss’, ensure you make your purchases well in advance before your photoshoot in case you need to exchange sizes. I’ve personally used Shein a lot, and you can find some real hidden gems.

For those seeking something on the higher end side, perhaps an outfit that will last more than a few uses (sorry Shein), I’d recommend Honey Birdette and Bras and Things. They both have a great range of higher quality lingerie in a variety of fun and sexy colours. They cater to a wide range of body types, giving women of all sizes a boost of body confidence.

Boudoir photoshoots are all about showcasing you and your remarkable body. One of the most exciting (yet daunting) parts of a boudoir photo session is planning your outfits. Whether you wish to treat yourself to a few new wardrobe items, or make use of some existing outfits- this guide should help you put together the perfect set of outfits. Here are seven outfit ideas for your boudoir shoot:

Lingerie

Nothing says boudoir like a stunning set of lingerie. While it may seem like an obvious choice, there are many different styles of lingerie out there that can completely change the mood of the photoshoot. Whether you prefer delicate white lace, a classic black set or a bold red- lingerie allows you to showcase your curves in all the right places. Consider different styles of lingerie such as a matching bra and panty set, a lace up corset or a silky teddy.

Cosy Jumper

For a cosy ‘girl next door’ vibe, consider incorporating a soft and oversized jumper into your boudoir shoot. Pair it with a set of bonds undies, thigh high socks or leggings for a playful look. For this type of look, I would play with a softer, more natural makeup and hair style to keep it casual. Snuggle up on plush blankets or an armchair for a relaxing shot that captures the authentic side of you.

Button Down Shirt

An oversized button down shirt can be a surprisingly sexy option for boudoir photography. Similar to the oversized jumper, it provides a more casual and relaxed look than traditional lingerie. Wear it over some sexy lingerie, a set of casual Calvin Kleins or Bonds- or nothing at all! You can wear the shirt unbuttoned or off the shoulder for a more flirty and sexy look. With the right backlighting, you can even use the shirt to create a silhouette to really show off your stunning curves.

Wedding Veil

For many women, a bridal boudoir photoshoot is a perfect way to celebrate this special moment in their life. A bridal veil is a bridal boudoir must-have. They symbolise the meaning if this occasion, but also create an array of artistic options. A bridal veil creates a feeling of allure, especially the way it caresses the silhouette of your body. Whether it’s a waist length veil or a cathedral length one, a veil adds a sense of beautiful romance to your photos.

Slip Nighty

A slip nighty is a timeless choice for a boudoir shoot. Slip nighties offer a figure skimming silhouette that is both classic and feminine. Opt for luxurious fabrics like satin or silk and accessorise with a matching gown and delicate jewellery. With a sensual slip, you’ll feel like an actress on the set of an old Hollywood glamour film.

Jeans and a Crop Top

For a more casual vibe, consider a pair of jeans and a simple crop top or casual bra for your boudoir shoot. The best part about this look is that you can likely use items of clothing you already own, making this a very budget friendly option. Choosing the right high waisted jeans that accentuate your curves and pair them with a lacy for sheer crop top for a splash of sexiness. This style offers a relaxed and casual look, while having an undertone of playfulness about it.

Sheer Robe

For an elegant and classic look, consider wearing a sheer robe as a statement piece for your boudoir shoot. Choose a robe with delicate lacing for a touch of elegance and drape it over your lingerie or over your bare skin. A sheer robe adds a level of femininity and allure to your photos. The robe can be a short, knee length type or for something a bit more glamorous, opt for a floor length style. 

Your boudoir shoot is an opportunity to express your beauty, confidence and sensuality in a way that is uniquely you. Whether it’s a sultry lingerie set, cosy jumper or a bridal veil, the key is to choose outfits that make you feel confident and empowered. Feel free to get in touch for further outfit enquiries and of course- book a shoot!
