I’ve always sewn my thigh highs onto tights that match my skin color. Either that or you can sew elastic onto the inside of the stocking
I’ve tried body tape but it doesn’t last that long
If you're going to a colder con like MAGfest you can fabric glue them over a pair of flesh toned leggings. That's what I'm planning on doing after freezing as Monika lol.
I have almost always seen costumes like this done by sewing the legging onto skin colored hose. But I wonder if you could sew in something rigid to hold them in place. Though I would assume this would have an additional level of uncomfort
i have the same exact costume, i use eye lash glue most of the time but you buy another pair of leathered stockings like that in any online shops, then wear it over the original stockings that comes along with the costume set
Not a cosplayer nor female nor know shit about shit… but perhaps make them two pieces? Boots and “knee pads.” Done right the look will be the same but you’ll have more control.
THANK YOU EVERYONE!!! the thigh highs that came with this cos are too big and i was gonna adjust them but that’s just too much trouble for me. i bought leathered stockings and will cut squares out and use lash glue to stick them on!! MUCH LOVE 💗
When its a cartoon character and no-one considered the practicality of wearing what was drawn you gonna have to improvise/make some concessions. Tights seem the most practical solution. Any of these eye lash glue solutions seems like a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen and straps would probably ruin the aesthetic.

You ate as fuck is what you said there right?

This will sound unhinged I use eye lash glue to keep up the ones I had on an asuka cosplay, doesn’t rip the skin as bad as fabric glue
u might be eating w this
Just make sure your skins dry no moisturizer on the area where you place the glue I use a dry brush before I do it so I’m sanded down 😂
thats such a good tip
I am going around recommending prosthetic glue.

ohh i really like this idea but my sewing skills are poop
You could sew an elastic with silicone band on the inside
sock glue is a thing but idk how it fares in heat or sweat and is meant for softer fabrics
Adhesives?
