Duct Tape Fashion

Did you know that you can create clothing out of duct tape? Of course you can!

With a little imagination, you can make all sorts of clothing out of duct tape. Of course, your clothing will be warm to wear and fully waterproof!

For most of these ‘fashions’ you will need to make duct tape fabric. To make duct tape fabric: Lay out one strip of duct tape sticky side up. Attach another strip of duct tape sticky side up to the edge of the one already laid out, attaching the long sides together, so you have two strips side by side. Continue until you have enough pieces to have a sheet large enough for a piece of your pattern. Lay pieces of duct tape sticky side down on the sticky ‘sheet’ of duct tape you have created until you have a full, non-sticky sheet of duct tape fabric.

Duct tape vest. Draw out a pattern for a vest, or use a pre-made vest pattern. Cut out the pattern on duct tape fabric. Attach the pieces together using duct tape.

Duct tape dress. Similarly to the vest, create or use a dress pattern—simplicity is the key to making a great duct tape dress. Using sheets of duct tape fabric, cut the pieces out. Attach the pieces together using duct tape. You could sew them together as well for extra durability—but duct tape will do the trick!

Duct tape hat—you can make a duct tape hat! Measure your head’s circumference and then let your imagination go wild! You can make a baseball cap, a fedora—any type of hat you desire!

Duct tape jewelry—bracelets, hair bands, watch straps and all it takes is some imagination and a little trial and error.

Duct tape flip flops—using a couple of sheets of duct tape fabric, outline each of your feet and allow for a half an inch all the way around. Cut out your shape. Mark the place in between your big and second toes. Punch a hole through the shoe. Make a strip of duct tape and measure to go around your foot like flip flops. Punch holes in the side where the duct tape meets. Push duct tape straps through the holes and tape underneath.
