If She Had Only Gone Topless
From the YouTube site (or should that be sight?) of this video. July 28, 2009 -- CORRECTION: The description originally stated that exposed film was to be used, but you actually have to use blank, developed film. A chemical used in the development process is what gives the film it's visible light filtering capabilities.In other words - if you can practically see through the garment already this method has possibilities. And even if it doesn't, it might be fun to find an accomplice who would be willing to help you with the experiments. To insure the correct experimental procedure is followed in every experiment it is a requirement that the experimenter dress and undress the model for each iteration of the experiment. And to properly document the experiment videos and photos should be taken at each step. Then you have to write it up. Finally no experiment is really complete until the results are published and replication has confirmed the results. Oh. Yeah. Take measurements.

from Amazon but making your own or just getting a bit of developed blank film from a film processor seems cheaper. 
to help you on your way.
The blank developed film should be black and white film. I think it's all that silver in the film that must act as an IR filter.
It sounds like the method involves detecting infrared. Naturally, skin is at a higher temperature than background, and cloth that's closer to skin is hotter than the outer layers.
CCDs are a lot more sensitive to IR than film, anyway. (Make a video of a red LED (that's close enough to the IR). The spot will stand out like a beacon.
I'm impressed by your experimental technique - it's really the only sensible way to do it. Good science needs good data!
