Hemming 3 inches all the way around this dress took a hit minute, but when we were done you could not tell. Held for about 5 and a half hours, and I didn't trip once. The little ruler on the tin actually came in  quite handy

I'm 5 feet tall and needless to say, everything must be hemmed. I rented this gorgeous gown last minute for a wedding at the RTR store and I noticed this hem tape. The stylist helping me assured me the tape worked well; the alternative was to wear 6" platform heels. When I got home I tested it out anf it was a strong hold, so I wore 4" heels intead.  I used 8 pieces of tape total on a slinky and satin gown and it held ALL night. I packed more tape just in case the tape
started to weaken but it was not needed. I love this stuff!!! I wardrobe must. 

I was really worried about the fit...my athletic body..wide shoulders..short waist..all what I thought would be limiting on finding a formal dress to fit ...well...this dress smoothed out all those worries right away.5'2" and can't wear high heels so I knew to request some hem tape which I had a tailor help me with.    
Thank you..this is the first formal dress I've worn since the High School prom 100 years ago!

worked perfectly!! Stayed in place all ngiht long.

The fit was absolutely flawless, except for the length. Thank goodness for the temporary hem tape, which made the whole glorious night possible! It didn't tear the lace and kept things right above the toe of my heels. Literally perfect. 

The tape worked great for several hours, but after dancing and having it stepped on by guys dancing by me and other girls' heels, it fell and I was holding my dress up the rest of the night. The fabric on my dress was very heavy, I imagine the tape would be perfect on a dress with less heavy fabric. 

I rented the "Back in Action Romper" which was slightly too big on me. I used the hem tape to bring the shorts up about an inch and it worked perfectly. I made sure to measure the hem evenly, pinned it in place, and then ironed the new hem. Then I applied the tape in the fold with about a quarter inch between each piece of tape. The hem tape stayed in place after a full night of dancing and then came off easily the next morning.

The hem tape is very strong and durable...I was worried at first, but it hemmed my dress perfectly all night!
