Default favorite color(s)

What color speedo do you like to wear most? I like white when I am real tan and otherwise am fond of light blue or light green. People say I look real good in red although red is not a color I am real fond of but if it looks good on me I am game for it.

The local shops only sell black or navy blue Speedos, If I go to the local pool and wear black or navy blue I will fit in with any other Speedo wearers, should i wish to conform.
I have Speedo Flipturn Kapow printed in mauve and light blue for when i want to be noticed in a pool.
For the beach I rather like purple, but am told I look hot in yellow. Yellow does get a little see through as you come out of the water though.
I had a really nice white pair in the late 1980's, maybe I should post a picture of me in them as a puzzle some time.
Red is OK if "everyone" is wearing brightly coloured suits, but wear red when everyone else is in black is too big a contrast.

Blue is my favorite. I am sure it came from high school were we were issued blue nylon Dolfin brand suits. I cannot tell you how hard (pun) it was to get from the changing room to the pool. I still have a few that I have borrowed and will return.

Privately I like yellow and red. Then again as the mood strikes.........

My high school swim team's Speedo color was international orange and I always thought those suits were hot, hot, hot!

Yellow is great if you have a dark tan.

Tyr makes a really nice blue.

But I mostly swim in plain old black.

Default Trends

I have a tendency to relate speedo fashion trends to automobiles - go back a few years and all colors imaginable were to be seen - now black predominates.

Default Bright colors

I'm partial to yellow/gold/orange suits, but I also like light to medium blue. I don't think dark colors are as interesting.
