The entire appeal of wetlook to me is when the clothing used in wetlook situation is NOT intended to get wet...i.e. the sense of naughtiness in doing something you are not supposed to do. Clothing that is designed for the purpose of getting wet has no appeal for me...i.e. swim tights, swim vests, burka style swim wear etc. For me that is unappealing as wearing a raincoat when it rains.

The main problem I have with purposely designed swim clothes is that the fabrics they use are purposely designed to be impervious to the effects of water ......i.e. the 3 most enjoyable wetlook fabric attributes for me are 1) when a fabric changes shape or clings, 2) when a fabric changes color to show the difference between wet and dry, and 3) when a fabric goes see thru.....and none of these things happen with swim clothes....only with street clothes.

Swim leggings for me are not much different to wearing a scuba wet suit.......but that's just the opinion of an old fuddy duddy.
