It's the question we're asked more than any other, usually a few weeks before a shoot, often with a slight note of panic. The honest answer is that you don't need to arrive with a suitcase of lingerie or a plan for every look. Styling you is part of what we do.
Our Wardrobe Is Yours For The Day
Our £300,000 wardrobe spans sizes XS to 5XL and is stocked with lingerie, corsets, robes, gowns, costumes and accessories built up over more than a decade of shoots. Before you step in front of the camera we'll talk about what you love, what you'd like to show and what you'd rather keep covered, then pull pieces that suit your shape and the mood you're after.
Should I Bring My Own Lingerie?
You're very welcome to. Many clients bring a favourite set, something from their wedding day or a piece they've always wanted to be photographed in, and then use some of ours alongside it. If you do bring your own, pack it flat or on a hanger so it arrives crease-free, and bring a couple of options rather than one.
Colours That Photograph Beautifully
Black, ivory, nude, blush and deep jewel colours like burgundy, emerald and purple all look wonderful under our studio lighting. Lace, satin, silk and feathers add texture that the camera loves. Very bright neon shades can be harder to light, so if you're unsure, bring them along and we'll help you decide.
What About Fit?
Fit matters more than size on the label. Pieces that are too tight can dig in and pieces that are too loose can gape, so our stylists will adjust, pin and swap until everything sits perfectly. This is one of the big advantages of using our wardrobe on the day.
The One Thing We Do Ask You To Bring
Two pairs of stockings, ideally one nude and one black. Everything else, from heels to jewellery to robes, we can provide.
Still Not Sure?
That's completely normal. Many of our clients arrive saying they have no idea what suits them and leave with images they can't believe are them. Our shoot planner asks a few easy questions about what you're drawn to, so we can start thinking about outfits before you arrive. Just a 50% deposit secures your date, and you can spread the cost over 3 months, 0% interest-free, with PayPal on every package.
