Temporary hem for a jumpsuit

Wasn't sure where to post this, I bought a jumpsuit that I love. I want to wear it to an afternoon casual event with white trainers then again with heels at Christmas.

Any tips on the best way to hem the trousers so I can remove it after and not damage the fabric? Thanks!

I think you’ll need to actually hand hem it with a nice fine needle. That iron on wundaweb stuff will make it stiff and you’ll never get it all off. Hand hemming is mind-numbingly boring but looks really professional and will come out without leaving traces.

I agree with Verbena. You use your needle to catch one or two threads of the visible fabric when hemming, don’t pull too hard when tying the cotton and it will be virtually invisible and easy to remove. Boring tho!
