Depends on the woman, her frame & her style of clothes.. If you're a tomboy & wear loose fitting jeans & bigger tops then an IWB would be fine.. IMO, if you're a purse toter, then get a "gun purse" wit a pocket..

This is the only way The Missus will carry (2:30 through 4:30 o'clock were uncomfortable for her to draw because of the height of her belt line).
She does sometimes use a pull-open fanny pack in the front if she has no long coat/sweater for concealment.

If you're planning on carrying on-body (always prefered) most women seem to really prefer appendix carry (right in the front, just off the center line). A good low profile holster with a medium to smaller frame gun (think a 2/3 inch j frame, Ruger LC9, etc).
If purse carry, you're only really limited by the amount of weight you can comfortably carry adn the purse size. My wife carries a glock 19 in the diaper bag/purse, a g27 on body.
Theres other options, like around the neck and under bra, but they are not ideal for draw speed or comfort and of course put you in a position where you hand and gun can easily be trapped against your body and/or tangled in your clothes.
We have also modified womens purses with reinforced straps (thin steel cable in the strap) to prevent it from being cut or pulled off the body. Its not uncommon in a GOOD gun purse, so look at that option, too. Problem, is yall women like to change your purses too much!
