Wetlook World Forum

   Thank you for the complements, we really do try to appeal to as many different tastes as possible. Of course those tastes are very diverse. One person can like one thing while another likes the opposite, but we always try to appeal to the greatest number of fans as possible. We also try to produce top quality photographic images which we hope gives us a unique style.

You wrote; "I think maybe some ladies hate them, or maybe there are not enough requests?"

Admittedly we don't get very many requests for nylons, pantyhose, etc. But this certainly doesn't diminish your voice as we do occasionally produce a few images that have nylons. In fact a new update will be coming with a beautiful redhead in a shower wearing nylons that will be available within this week. It's not really a matter, if the ladies like them or hate them. Many of the fantastic girls we get to work with, are professional enough to understand that the outfits they wear are for our viewing pleasure. But we also have very specific requirements when we put together a look and a style so that when we photograph the models, everything will look cohesive in the final image. Unfortunately nylons may not fit a particular style or look, so we won't use them in if everything together doesn't look right.

Many contemporary styles do not include nylons as part of the fashion trend today, for the reasons you pointed out. Today's street-ware tends to be jeans and a t-shirt and yet these are also popular among wetlook fans. Look at the Ugg boot craze among some fans, the boots are in no way attractive to me, but others want to see girls wear them in the water, likely because at some point in their lives, they had seen a very attractive women wearing a pair. Jeans are also very popular wetlook clothes, and some producers have dedicated sites to jeans. Everyone has their own tastes and every taste is different. Personally I do like the dressed up look and we seek inspiration from modern styles. However, unlike the 50s-60s era of fashion, modern day high end contemporary fashions usually don't include, proper undergarments, hose, nylons, or even petticoats.

Now there is something I had proposed some time ago, but I never got back much response. That is, I can produce a wetlook site that has a more "vintage" appeal. Here is an example;

I created this image with the intent to give the image that nostalgic vintage look. On the technical side, I photographed the image using old school photography techniques and lighting, and I modified the image to look like it's aged and color shifted. More importantly, on the style side, we carefully picked out clothes for this set that appeared like it came from the 50s or 60s. If there is an interest for "vintage inspired" wetlook we can do more of this and it would likely feature more nylons and pantyhose, along with dresses. Not to forget that there is a diverse range of wetlook tastes, we could also do other vintage styles, such as a 60s go-go look, a 70s era hippy-look etc.
