How can I keep my dress up?

I have this short strapless black dress that I am planning on wearing to my friends sweet sixteen saturday. I already wore this dress once to another sweet sixteen and it kept falling down the whole night. while dancing I would pull it up basically every 5 seconds. I dont want to have to do that again this time so are there any tricks to keep my dress up? I already know about fashion tape but I cant get any by saturday. are there any substitutes for fashion tape?

Answer #1

regular tape maybe even duck tape just make sure no one can see it I suggest you try your options before the party comes

Answer #2

haha sorry. I wasnt trying to be rude. I just meant that it would help if it fit tighter.

Answer #3

I don’t know. Maybe try to safety pin it to your bra?.

Answer #4

safety pinning it to a bra is a good idea as the first person said if you dont have a strapless one, try and get clear straps for your bra maybe or use safety pins to pin it and make it a bit smaller and cling to your body more if you had time you could get it altered so it fits your body shape and doesnt keep falling down you could also try wearing a tight fitting belt in the middle of your waist over the dress so it stays up a bit better or quickly sew on some ribbon or spagetti straps yourself that will hold it up

Answer #5

A few thumb tacks should do the trick .. the dress is black so it won’t show the blood stains

Answer #6

well I have answers like the onesq above use a saftey pin or buy a different dress!!!

Answer #7

um they have bras made for that like they have fake boobs in them even if you have boobs that may help
