IMHO - We just didn't care. We were rebelious. That's when we all let our hair grow, smoked weed, and did anything we could to defy the "establishment." You saw a fountain, you jumped in, if people turned and stared well that's the reaction we wanted - screw them.

The situation was quite different in Russia.

There was no (or almost no) wetlook in the 70-s and 80-s.

Wetlook hapennings began in the mid 90-s.

we look in 70s and 80s

There was more wetlook in the 70s and 80s and I think it was because of the following:

1) many girls had only one swimsuit, so when that swimsuit was not available they swam with shorts and a shirt, and it was no big deal.

2) most guys wore cut-offs, or swimtrunks that looked like cut-offs, so many girls followed and and wore cut-offs and a bikini top in the water.

3) there were more dual purpose beach areas. For example many girls went to the Crystal Beach amusment park for the rides, and ended up in the water,many with shorts, some with jeans on. It would be rare for any girl to plan to swim with jeans on.

4) rainwear: most girls had switched from traditional rainwear to plastic slickers by the mid 70s. It seems that when slicker use died out by the late 80s wet look at the beach also wet down. I don't know why this happened.
