WHEN DRESSING FOR SEX, the rules are simple: wear tight clothes that emphasize the curves and contours of the body and draw the eye to the genitals, chest, or buttocks. Clothes should either be difficult to take off or extremely easy to slip out of.
Shocking your partner by wearing something unexpected always has erotic powers. To spice up your sex life, try subverting your normal dress codes.
Choosing underwear
Because underwear is the last item of clothing that you shed before sex, it has an important symbolic value. When that underwear is silky and sexy, it can have a wonderfully sensual effect, making you feel great and your partner long to get his or her hands on you. Men have fewer types of underwear to choose from but, rather than get complacent about your choice, buy something that you know your partner finds attractive—black silk boxers are often popular. If you don’t know what he or she likes, try drawing up a humorous list with your partner, covering the types of underwear that you find sexy and those that you dislike. Take each other’s vital measurements, and then go shopping together. Let sexual tension start in the underwear department and build on the way home. Some sex shops specialize in erotic underwear, from crotchless panties and G-strings to leather and rubber ware. When undressing each other, try a game of removing each others underwear with your teeth.
Shoes
For years the foot and its clothing—the shoe—have been seen as an erotic symbol of the female body. However, if you plant a tall, slim woman, wearing sheer black stockings, a short skirt, and tremendously high stiletto heels in front of a male you will see a fascinating phenomenon—presented with such a vision of a long-legged woman, men virtually froth at the mouth. Today’s psychologists believe that this is a result of males becoming fixated as children on particular sights or objects that they accidentally associate with sexuality. Seamed stockings and high black leather boots also dramatically outline and draw attention to a sexy leg.
