Tip of the week: Quick fixes for wardrobe malfunctions

Wig tape; Hem tape; Safety pins; Lint sheets

Wig tape. Here’s a good example of a simple product that works better than most miracle products you might see advertised on TV. Made to hold on toupees or wigs, this “super-duper” double-sided tape can force a wayward lapel to lie flat or tack up a fallen hem.

Hem tape. A true hem tape provides a more permanent fix for a torn hem without requiring you to get out a needle and thread. Pros who dress models or TV talking heads use it regularly.
