Fashion Friday | Campbell Bay Area Boudoir Photographer

When I say Fredrick’s of Hollywood, what do you think? Maybe something not glamorous, a bit on the “wild” side, more for the bedroom type lingerie? I’m going to change your mind on that today ladies! They have really upgraded their lingerie and I am loving what I see! While they still have lots of pieces that are definitely more “for the bedroom”, Fredrick’s has really brought out many gorgeous, timeless pieces that would be great for your boudoir shoot (and after!).

Let’s look at some of their pieces and talk about what are some good choices for your shoot, and what are not good choices!

Don't & Do

 

The pink piece on the left is definitely daring, but is that the look you wanna go for in these beautiful, sensual images you are creating? The stunning piece on the left is timeless! The lace makes a gorgeous statement and the collar on it is just amazing, while the lace in the pink outfit competes with the straps and just makes it look “busy”.
A lot of women go for a bodysuit as one of their outfits, and that can be a great choice. Just make sure you are picking one that is flattering.
Bodysuit don't & do

 

When choosing lingerie don’t pick something that has side cut outs; these kinds of cut outs flatten out your boobies and create a very unflattering image. While the plunge on the right is a very flattering cut, creates great cleavage and looks great on many body types.
One more comparison for you today; remember that you want to be able to look at your images for years to come, without saying “I can’t believe I chose that outfit!”. You want to select pieces that are timeless, and not a reflection of todays style.

The outfit on the left is very modern looking, and those details are very reminiscent of the styles of todays lingerie. If you like the detail of lines, choose something like the outfit on the right which doesn’t reflect any specific era.
The closest store in our area is at Oakridge Mall. Don’t forget that Danea does wardrobe consultations and can meet you there and help you choose what will photograph well, best part is you can try them on and really see how they will look on your body!
 Go check out their store or website and find some beautiful, classic pieces for your shoot, or bedroom 😉
