Chili Jam
A category represents refined, mature, and alluring boudoir cosplay photography. It celebrates character-driven work that emphasizes style, atmosphere, and body aesthetics through tasteful sensuality without crossing into explicit content. This category honors photographers whose work is an important part of the cosplay scene but is often overlooked.
Category Rules
Category Submission Rules
This is a very special category, and we have to draw a not that straight line. So the list is huge.
Limitations
Please note that all rules which limit “nipple freedom” apply to every subject regardless of gender.
-
No explicit sexual acts No simulated or real sexual behavior.
-
No full explicit exposure No genital, explicit frontal nudity, or graphic anatomical focus.
-
No exposed nipples, no transparent or semi-transparent nipple covers Anything that reveals detail or mimics full exposure.
-
No designs intended to simulate nudity Example: Chest prosthetics with exposed nipples or extremely minimal tape or shapes placed to imply uncovered areas.
-
No violent themes No bondage, choking, or non-consensual themes.
-
No imagery implying restraint, captivity, or bondage, involving physical control, restriction of movement, or domination/submission dynamics, restraining Shibari, or rope patterns that clearly reference bondage practices. Whether aesthetic, stylized, or non-functional
-
No characters depicted as minors No childlike versions, school uniforms implying underage characters.

Conditionally Allowed
-
Implied and partial nudity and tasteful body focus Example: covered silhouettes, sheets, strategic posing, bare backs, cleavage, legs, shoulders, waistlines, silhouettes, booty.
-
Latex outfits which are not considered fetish suites Full-body or partial latex; form-fitting or shiny latex matching the character’s design is fine as long as it does not simulate nudity or fetish oriented. Might be semi transparent if nipples and genitals are covered.
-
Creative body taping that ensures full nipple coverage Geometric or artistic taping that functions like lingerie or swimsuit coverage. Tape patterns as long as the coverage is unmistakable and non-transparent.
-
Rope used purely as decorative costume elements Example: rope accents on an outfit, stylized wraps that function like accessories as long as it is not binding, restraining, or suggestive of restraint.
-
Sheer or mesh fabrics, translucency and wet-look Example: sheer fabrics or wet clothing that reveal the silhouette or nipple shape without exposing skin/areola details. Excluding extreme zooms, devoid of wider artistic context.
-
Skin-colored lingerie or clothing Allowed, as long as it provides full coverage and does not used to simulate nudity.
