ABSTRACT:
A tape for shaping garments comprised of a thin narrow malleable metal strip, a thin narrow backing strip of a flexible material, coated on one side with a pressure-sensitive adhesive, bonded to the metal strip, and an easily removable protective strip overlying the metal strip. The metal strip is preferably formed from malleable copper, aluminum or mild steel, such that it can be easily shaped by hand. The backing strip is wider than the metal strip whereby its adhesive coated side portions extend outwardly from the edges of the metal strip for bonding the protective strip. In an alternate embodiment of the invention, the backing strip is eliminated by adhesively coating the metal strip and bonding the protective strip directly to the metal strip.
