Sticky tape is nothing new in fashion (Hollywood celebs have been using it for years to prevent wardrobe malfunctions on the red carpet), but sticky tape AS fashion is something you don’t see every day.

Thanks to [Trend de la Creme](http://www.trenddelacreme.com/2009/02/stick-to-your-glasses.html) who recently reported on sticky sunglasses, we can now cover our eyes with what appears to be disposable sunglasses by designers Azumi & David. I’m just not sure if I’m prepared to peel off my eyebrows and eyelashes when I enter a dark room.
