- Bought it thinking shiny reflective fabric would be fun and something different. Never had one before.
- The reflection doesn't look right, too many folds caused by light and shadows. (may be a bigger bulge will work better?)
- Wearing it looking like a stripper.
- Do not want to ask for too much attentions, that's why I never wear it in public swim yet.

Is that water friendly? It looks cool...

Was about to ask the same question as Prevail say swimsuit and NJH says public swim.
My first reaction was seeing sequins as might appear in stage shows and/or Pride marches, but I guess there will never be one satisfactory pattern in the
plates as every body movement and every light variation will produce a different result (and a bigger bulge therefore unlikely to make any difference I would suggest).

Thought it would be fun to wear it to swim, but have a change of heart. Don't want to much attentions. So the suit was only touch water once, washed after the photo shoot. It has never wear to swim.

The tiny plates seem to be very strong, should hold up good. But for weekly multiple times lap swim, not sure how long the fabric last.

Yes, I did saw the suit wore a couple times by bodybuilders competing on stage.

Interesting to learn about that - thanks for posting NJH
