Open Post: Hosted By Models Working “Sex Tape” Looks During New York Fashion Week
I don’t claim to be the most fashion-forward person in the world, but what I do know is that there are certain designers out there creating some very horrible clothing and charging an arm and a leg for it. That is not the case with designer Joel Alvarez, founder of the Black Tape Project. Basically, Joel is a self-proclaimed pioneer of creating designs for his models with nothing but tape. Just ask Julia Fox, hitting up the Home Depot tape aisle for an elegant crotch cover IS very now. And during a New York Fashion Week show yesterday, Joel’s models paraded around the stage draped in pieces of tape that left very little to the imagination in a show that should have been titled Hardware Store…But Make It FASHION!
According to The New York Post, Joel stocked up on as little tape as he possibly could ahead of his fashion show last night. And honestly, when all you need is tape to dress your models that leave a lot of cash left to do other things, but in his case, it will probably go towards more tape for future shows.
The so-called “King of Tape” premiered his latest line of tape-based swimwear at the Angel Orensanz Foundation in Manhattan Sunday night, mesmerizing audiences with his minimalist designs.
This latest display went even skimpier than usual — with the spartan black-and-white swimsuits barely concealing the models’ nether regions like live-action censor bars.
Here’s a look at the King of Tape’s NY show, as well as clips from past shows. Backstage after the show must be filled with nothing but the cries of models as Joel rips off their extremely sophisticated ensembles:

You know, I need to go into my garage and get all the tape I own so I can become a fashion designer too. But maybe instead, I’ll do something with Saran Wrap. I don’t think anyone has tapped into that market yet. Oh, wait…
Damn that Julia Fox! Always at the forefront of ~FaShUn~!
