The Boudoir Fashion Guide

Mariana Rios in Lethicia Bronstein 

Boudoir Fashion is a trend that women leave their lingerie apparent in their outerwear production but without vulgarity. We understand it can be a bit tricky to do it properly, so we put together a quick guide for you to do the trend of lingerie as outerwear correctly. Let's take a look at the possibilities?

Transparency - Transparency is a great start for a boudoir look. Use transparency without fear over a pretty and opaque bra preferably. Make sure to wear nipple covers if your bra requires extra coverage for a smoother look. If you are on the shy side wear a slimming jacket over it. We have seen a lot of transparency looks showing high waisted panties and shorts which require the right personality and attitute to embrace, so if you have the personality, go for it! We love best when it is worn as a resort wear more than for a red carpet event, unless of course, you're a celebrity, otherwise go with a pencil skirt or trousers for an elegant look.

Lingerie - If you want to use lingerie in your look, keep it simple, pick just one piece and mix it with casual clothing as underlay or overlay and add playful, feminine accessories. Best pieces to wear are camisoles, bodysuits/jumpers, and bustier bras, they are super easy to mix within. Silk and lace are the best fabrics.

Lingerie Illustration: A fun way to dress boudoir style is by wearing clothing with lingerie illustrations on it. Usually presented in t-shirt styles, it's a super flirty look when paired with jeans or leggings. British lingerie label, Bordelle, have implemented this trend using an illustration of their best seller range, the Angela dress, as you see below.

Structured - This is an easy and safe way to wear boudoir fashion. It suggests the lingerie, but translated by cuts in clothing and textiles. Lace overlay gives you a dressier look while simple patterns are perfect for day wear. Corsets also fall in this category.

Hosiery - For those who want just a little boudoir touch can opt for hosiery or thigh highs, they are very sexy without trying too hard. There are many options from classic opaques to ultra sexy designs like the ones with garter cuts creating the illusion you are wearing them.

Boudoir Fashion is for all women at all ages. You just need to choose the looks that you are most comfortable with, that fit your body type appropriately, and show your personality well. Now, tell us: what do you really think about this trend? Would you wear it? If yes, what's your favorite look?
