What is the sexiest thing a woman can wear?

Depends on the person, the cultural background they are from, and any particular interests they have.

Having said that... a list of sexy outfits/things:

outfits:
- sailor suit (think Anime/Japanese sailor suit)
- well trimmed/cut uniform(police/nurse/Anime-space-military)
- Swimsuits(depends on the figure/swimsuit pairings)
- torn/melting/tattered outfits

accessories:
- cat ears/tail
- stylized tattoo along the side of the body, accentuating the natural curves/muscle tone
- body paint
- ropes(japanese rope bondage comes to mind)
- parachute harness nude?
- bottle of water cascading down while drinking
- the almighty pen. With the right model, a pen/pencil is sexy when being held, or chewed on thoughtfully.

Having listed the above... the expression, pose, and personality being projected will influence the "sexy" factor as much as the outfit. 2 cents worth.

ok. so i have read most of the posts. and guys lets be honest. nothing is quite nice. but that doesn't really leave much to the imagination. nor do you find women roaming in the streets sporting absolutely nothing. so lets put some creative thought into this.

this is what i think looks amazingly sexy.

jeans. tight jeans that hug the butt. squeeze the knees. and open up a tad wide at the bottom. not to long. but definately not short.

barefeet. no socks no shoes. just the bare feet. the look of the skin contrasting with the jeans is great for me.

now the top can go several different ways.

a white t-shirt. plain and simple. usually no bra underneath. the shirt would have to be tight. can be long , down to the jeans or shall we be daring, rolled or cut off right in the middle of the breast.

or.

a button down shirt, all i can picture is flannel. but thats definately not it. any who a button down shirt, open, with no bra. show the skin but not the breast.

i'd say go with the t-shirt and get yourself a nice belt. not something to flashy, but a brown belt with a raw looking buckle.

that for me would be sexy. a simple girl lounging at the house, wearing that. would keep me interested all day.

ps

shoot in black and white. it works best.

garters are always sexy

Bingo!

Anything that has to do with nylon. Garters & stockings, thigh highs, pantyhose or the one piece nylon body suits. YUMMY! :-) Open toe heels are the best but pumps in a pinch. No boots!

The outfit that I like to see a woman wear is a black bra with blue jeans, or with the skirt from a business suit.

A nice satin slip is the next best thing.

I think a pair of beat up jeans, mans shirt untucked and partially unbuttoned, no shoes, hair up, and having fun outdoors. But then that is only going to fit the one occasion.

Only my personal opinion

Prime example of the man's shirt thing. https://img4.modelmayhem.com/060612/06/448d4cca254c6.jpg

I think the attitude of the wearer is more important than the garment.
Having a fan doesn't hurt either.

On the body:

a black business suit with a black ruffle-collar and ruffled-cuffs shirt underneath
fishnet stockings on long legs
4" heels BLACK suede or velvet or satin shoes
a blood-red rose on her hand matching her blood red lipstick

Contrast in sophistication and "sluttiness" wink

1.  Cotton anything

2.  Business suit with skirt inappropriately short.

3.  Bra and panties:  You're almost there.  Just a couple of obstacles, but you can handle them.  smile

i think full nudity is beautiful... not sexy. more aphrodite than laetitia casta.

but, no, i'm not going to list all my wardrobe ideas for everyone else to steal!

Personally, I think what makes one woman look awesomely sexy/sensual makes another woman look frumpy.  Sexy/sensual is an inherit part of the person wearing (or not wearing) certain pieces of clothing.  What I like on one woman doesn't do it for me on another.

Now, one thing all women should wear is pubic hair.  There's a distinct lack of it these days and, while it may be fashionable to be bald, it ain't looking pretty or sexy to me.  It's an epidemic I tell ya!

No, wait, it's a Pandemic!

i think if they are wearing something with nothing underneath and shows enough that they aren't is very sexy, of course everything mentioned previously is pretty good too wink LOL

whatever makes her look really good in the context. that could be a full head-to-toe Prada get-up complete with tweed coat and boots, or a prairie skirt and flip-flops, or nothing but a smile...

I mean I have a major weakness for wrap dresses, but wrap dresses definitely do not suit all body types. Nor do they suit all situations.

I do hate anything that speaks cheesy or cheap. Stripper sexy is not sexy at all to me.

I shoot a lot of nudes.  Most of the times it's for the simplicity of the image, not because nude is sexier.

To be honest, if the thrust of the image is to convey more... sexy... then I usually add clothing (lingerie, dresses, men's clothing articles, other 'surprising' unpredicable articles (capes, sporting eq, flags, fur, scarf, etc as that list goes on).

The idealism of 'sexy' is very subjective, just like beauty is in the eye of the beholder.  So is sexy.  Sure, there are some 'formulas' that just scream sex to each and everybody (ie: thong, garter, etc). 

As you read through this thread, it's been said, it's pretty easy to be sexy in sexy things.  Try being sexy in something that's not traditionally sexy.  So the challenge is on.

But I suppose the point I wanted to make after all is said and done... is that nude is generally more seductive and sensual as opposed to sexy.  Know what I mean?

You do?  Great, email me and help me understand that too.  LOL

I know this isn't what you are looking for, but for me it is all in the face and the expression.  From there it is the mood of the image.
