This designer’s swimwear line has jaws dropping

0

Artist Joel Alvarez sent models down the runway at Miami Swim Week in rather inventive, very skimpy bikinis made of TAPE.


The photographer-cum-designer presented his range of “swimwear,” in the form of one and two-pieces and even mankinis made of nothing but tape in bright colours and metallics.

Created by fashion house, Black Tape Project, the sticky collection is in fact strategically placed tape, and not fabric, that covered the models’ most intimate areas.

According to Daily Mail,after Joel photographed a former Miss Puerto Rico and uploaded a video of their shoot, it went quickly viral; receiving 7 million views and over 50,000 shares. He currently has nearly 70K followers on his Instagram page, where he says he gets many inquiries into his tape-made looks.

For the DIY-minded consumer looking to recreate the look, Joel sells the golden tape for up to $49.99
