double sided tape?

[sylus]

i'm not sure if this is the right area to put this in so if its supposed to go somewhere else please feel free to move it. but i was woundering where you would be able to buy that double sided tape stuff that can be put on your skin to hold fabric to it. (they use it for dresses that you cant wear a bra with) also i dont know the name of the suff.
so if anyone can help me it would be much apreaciated.

I believe that some beauty supply stores and costume stores would carry 'toupee tape' which is used to hold toupees and wigs on, that's one kind. I've used double-sided masking tape from the hardware store for costumes before, but it's not designed for skin so you might want to test beforehand to see if it irritates your skin.

Also, test it on a scrap of the fabric beforehand to see if it damages the fabric in any way.

Double sided Scotch tape holds up pretty well as well. You can buy some in most art/craft stores.

Victoria's Secret sells some, but it doesn't have very good hold. It popped out of place very quickly, and I tried it 3 times on different garments (some cosplay, some not).

I use double sided carpet tape - it's wide and STRONG (but not in a ripping duct tape of bare skin kind of way :eeek:)

If you are trying to find nipple cover tape, just go to the first aid aisle at the drugstore and buy a roll of surgical tape. Great stuff and is very gentle to skin.

Claires has stuff to hold dresses up if you've got one.
For a quick solution we had a roll of that hem tape at a con and we used that.
