5 Ways Men Can Use Fashion Tape

When you hear "fashion tape," your first thought might be securing dresses, necklines, or straps. But fashion tape can be just as useful for men's clothing.

Whether it’s keeping a shirt collar in place, keeping ties and accessories in check, or creating a quick temporary hem, men can use fashion tape to solve those small wardrobe problems that make an otherwise polished outfit feel a little off.

Here are five easy ways men can use fashion tape for their outfits!

1. Keep Shirt Collars in Place

A clean, crisp collar can pull an entire outfit together, but as many can attest, collars don't always cooperate. They can curl, shift, or refuse to sit exactly where you want them throughout the day.

A small piece of Fearless® Fashion Tape Dots can help secure your collar to your shirt and keep everything looking neat and secure throughout the day.

2. Control a Gaping Button-Down Shirt

Imagine - your button-down shirt is near perfect, all except for that one spot between the buttons that pulls or gaps.

Placing a strip of fashion tape between the buttons or on the gaps will help keep the shirt securely where you want it, while remaining hidden underneath.

It's a simple fix that can make your shirt look more put together.

3. Keep Ties and Lapels in Position

Whether you're getting dressed for a wedding, work event, or formal night out, small details matter.

If your tie shifts out of place, fashion tape can provide a little extra hold to help keep it positioned against your shirt. It can also help keep suit jacket lapels where you want them, especially when you're moving around or taking photos.

Just remember to spot test first, particularly with delicate or specialty fabrics.

4. Create a Quick Temporary Hem

If your dress pants run just a tad too long, or you would like to cuff your jeans, fashion tape can be an easy temporary solution.

Fold the bottom of your pants inward to your desired length, then use fashion tape to help secure the temporary hem in place.

This trick can be especially handy while traveling, before an event, or when switching between shoes that require slightly different pant lengths.

5. Keep Accessories and Clothing Details Secure

Fashion tape isn't limited to shirts and pants. It can also come in handy for smaller styling details.

A strategically placed piece of fashion tape can help keep things like lightweight accessories or clothing details from moving throughout the day. Items such as pocket squares that won't stay positioned, or other small wardrobe fixes can all be supported.

The key is to use only as much tape as you need and make sure the tape is appropriate for the material you're working with.

A Simple Styling Tool for Men

Fashion tape may not be the first thing that comes to men’s minds when they think about how to spruce up their outfit, but it can be a great solution for many of those small wardrobe problems they can deal with.

Whether you're keeping a shirt collar sharp, closing a gap between buttons, securing a tie or lapel, or making a quick pant hem adjustment, Fearless® Fashion Tape gives men an easy, discreet way to keep clothing looking polished and in place.
