Style AND function. Except maybe not so much. Or so much!
Recently, the wet SUIT has stolen a bit of thunder in surf fashion: a suit you can wear in the water or in the boardroom, designed by Quiksilver Japan. Big whoop. Let’s be real, if you think your colleagues are going to respect you when you show up to the office in neoprene, you’re in for a rude awakening. While the classic three-piece set does ooze sophistication and style, it also oozes salt water, and that’s just setting you up for an awkward puddle under your desk and a very soggy moleskin.
As per usual, the women’s wear version of this trend stands to one-up the men’s. Fellas are sure to be underdressed because ladies will be able to purchase surf tuxedos, well, Canadian tuxedos that is. Fashion designer Cynthia Rowley created a unique (to say the least) wetsuit that brings daisy dukes into the lineup and the glories of neoprene just about anywhere!
Think of all the places you would wear denim on denim. Now double that, because with this wetsuit you can have the effortless look of denim with the comfort of wearing a toasty wetsuit EVERYWHERE. Now, for the low price of $375, you can wear your wetsuit made of head to butt denim-print to the office, to the coffee shop, to the grocery store, and even to lunch with your girl friends, all while steaming away in 2mm of neoprene. This, ladies, is the American dream. Plus, with the concealed zipper, no one has to know your little secret!
Are there probably health hazards to this? Absolutely. But hey, beauty is pain, right?
Comfort! Sort of!
