Models walk the runway at the BLACK TAPE PROJECT Show during Miami Swim Week Powered By Art Hearts Fashion at Faena Forum on Jin Miami Beach, Florida. “Mind you, she looked like two Christmas hams wrapped in rubber bands when I was done!” mused the fashionista, who currently boasts over 530,000 followers on Instagram. This “butt diamond” is composed of only four strips of tape. While Alvarez initially had no idea why she’d want to do this, he decided to oblige by wrapping her in black electrical tape, he recounted of his maiden bikini design. The budding designer was reportedly working with a model who “suggested I use electrical tape on her for the last look,” he said. Per the Black Tape Project’s website, the unconventional patterns were inspired by an encounter the designer had while working as a rookie fashion photographer in 2008. One of the more risqué creations on display at the Black Tape Project show. In order to prevent discomfort - and perhaps an inadvertent bikini wax upon removal - Alvarez claims he uses “only skin-safe artistic body tape” in his clingy couture.
In lieu of a bikini bottom, one model had diamond “scales” bedazzling her bare derrière, evoking what Ariel in “The Little Mermaid” might’ve looked like midway through morphing into a human. One of Joel Alvarez’s more Spartan swimsuits, which consists of several strips of black electrical tape. Meanwhile, other glamour gals strutted down the catwalk festooned in elaborate mosaics of multicolored, mirrored and metallic adhesive, acting as clothing and accessories from halter tops to bracelets. Some of the more minimalist bikinis entailed placing a few pieces of electrical tape over the model’s nether regions, similar to live-action censor bars. The so-called King Of Tape premiered his latest line of eccentric swimwear at the Faena Forum in Miami Beach on Saturday night, dazzling audiences with his MacGyver-esque designs, the Daily Mail reported.
The sticky swimwear was the brainchild of the Black Tape Project founder, Joel Alvarez, who uses a smorgasbord of different adhesives to create swanky yet Spartan beach attire. Miami swimsuit models redefined “sex tape” when they steamed up the Miami Swim Week runway in risqué bikinis composed entirely of different types of adhesive.
