Anyone out there ever had any experience with double sided dress tape??

Question

I'm a rather busty gal (42DD).. At the end of August, I will be taking part as a bridesmaid in my brothers wedding and I'm required to wear a strapless gown for the occassion. I bought a strapless bra to wear underneath for support but it's extremely uncomfortable (the boning in the side stabs me in the ribs) and without straps, it isn't very supportive anyways. Obviously straps (even clear ones) are out of the question. I was wondering if anyone out there (thats busty like me)has ever used the double sided dress tape like the celebs use in Hollywood to "hold themselves in place" for a formal event? If so, where did you purchase it from, what did it cost, and was it effective? I don't expect that it will be comfortable, but it has to be better than getting stabbed by wire boning ~ UGH!! Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

I had exactly the same issue, also a bridesmaid dress situation. I used the double sided tape and it worked well, but I will give you the advise to protect your nipples with a cotton pad or similar, or you will regret it when you take the tape off.

I learned the hard way.....

Have a trial run, it's not easy to get the tape right.

Good luck

Answer 2

Yes i have used it and it suck!!!!! i would try finding a strapless bra or something like that...maybe hunt around for ideals.....but i dont think the double sided tape will work for ya sorry!!

Answer 3

I used it to hold up a loin cloth for halloween, its a little odd feeling but i never lost the loin cloth, you will get used to the feel
