I'm looking for an alternative to Prestige that is more feminine.
A simple font that will complement a font like Arno.
Since the title says "prestige / courier", I presume you are looking for a monospaced font which is an alternative to Courier or to Prestige Elite/Prestige Pica.
If you were looking for a type element for an IBM Selectric, I could note that they had a typestyle which looked a little like the Goudy Old Style typeface (but not having its trademark diamond dots): Adjutant or Delegate.
Hmm. Lucida Typewriter is of some interest, but it looks like they don't make typefaces like what you're looking for any more. I guess that people figure now that there is no technical reason to have to use monospaced characters in most situations, there's no need to design monospaced faces that try really hard to imitate type (like Bookface Academic, another IBM typestyle, had done).
Monospasz from Yanone, though, might be like what you're looking for.
A typewriter-like, but non monospaced, somewhat “feminine” typeface is American Typewriter (especially the light weight at fairly big sizes):
