The boudoir look is inspired by the atmosphere of old Hollywood style and often includes lace, silk, satin and other luxurious materials. We’ll show you how easy it is to create the look for yourself.
The epitome of glamorous, seductive fashion, the boudoir style reinterprets the Hollywood style of the 50s with silky nightgowns, lace underwear and lots of transparency. By the way, “boudoirs” used to mean the private salons of rich women, and later generally the dressing room. We’ll show you here that the seductive look can also be easily styled for everyday use.
Boudoir look is made of luxurious materials
When it comes to the boudoir look, the most important thing is the right materials. In addition to silk and satin, this style also includes other garments made of transparent fabric. Lace or opulent ornaments are also popular with this trend. Nightgowns made of silk and lace in particular provide a cool break in style when combined with firmer fabrics such as leather or cotton. Lace tops look seductively cool when combined with casual baggy jeans.

Pastel color palette
A typical color palette for the boudoir look is pastel colors such as pink, lavender and light blue. You can combine them together or with neutral tones like white or beige. The tones are soft and feminine and fit perfectly with the romantic style of the boudoir. If you prefer stronger colors, you can also go for burgundy red or emerald green.
With attention to detail
To give your outfit an extra dose of glamor, be sure to use glitter when it comes to accessories. Long earrings with rhinestones or sleeves decorated with feathers ensure that your boudoir look is an absolute eye-catcher. Small glamorous handbags or shoes studded with rhinestones can also perfectly round off your exciting look.
