Pasties are adhesive nipple covers used for modesty under sheer or backless clothing, or as decorative accessories for costumes and festival wear. They are primarily categorized by their material and intended level of visibility.
Common Types of Pasties
- Silicone Nipple Covers: The most popular choice for everyday wear. These are typically reusable, waterproof, and designed with ultra-thin edges to remain invisible under tight-fitting or sheer tops.
- Satin & Fabric Pasties: Often disposable and available in various shapes like hearts, stars, or petals. These are a staple for backless dresses or as a base for more elaborate outfits.
- Decorative & Tasseled: Used primarily in burlesque, festivals, or as statement pieces. These can include rhinestones, glitter, and even removable tassels for a playful effect.
- Lifting Pasties: Specifically designed with an adhesive "tab" or larger surface area to provide a subtle push-up effect without the need for a traditional bra.
