Hello Wonderful Websleuthers!
I haven't posted in ages, but I just had to weigh in on one of Nancy's "girls" getting out last night!!
As a former professional dancer (primarily ballet, modern and lyrical) I'm totally gobsmacked that the costume folks didn't use standard
costume tape on her!! Nancy has a "healthy" set of breasts......no big deal.....and you can definitely dance with that chest if you plan in advance for a "wardrobe malfunction"!!! Costume tape, people! :doh:
Every wardrobe professional has it......
it's similar to "hem tape" but designed to adhere to contact points between skin and costume material.
At the peak of my dancing career (touring nationally with a well-known ballet company) I used it on certain costumes (and I had itty bitty titties if you'll excuse the language lol!). And YES---even decades ago (gawd I feel old now) there WAS sweatproof tape available. I find it very curious (and strange) that Nancy didn't seem to have these "protective measures" in place. :waitasec::waitasec:
BTW, the cameras/audience can't see the tape if applied properly (and it's super easy to use). It's just like double-sided tape but very strong and slightly stretchy and waterproof.
Disclaimer
eace: The tape can cause some "pull and tug" minor irritation, but isn't that preferable to one or both of your girls making an unscheduled "appearance"??
Just my :twocents:
Love to all!
Rainy (still dancin' but thrilled that I traded tutus for college, a great hubby and my precious daughter!!)
