And just to add to the term context - I think perception also has a key factor to it.
For example, take a football game played in the rain (BTW, American and Canadian Football = Football | Rest of the World Football = Soccer). Everything about it can qualify as wetlook: Nonstandard swimwear clothes getting wet (and muddy) - wet socks, wet shoes, wet pants, wet jerseys, wet shirts, wet gloves, wet armbands, etc. - yet not too many people would consider it wetlook. I know I don't. Example: http://static.nfl.com/static/content/catch_all/nfl_image/AJ_Feeley_040926_2_gallery_600.jpg
(Rest of the gallery can be viewed here - http://www.nfl.com/photo/photo-gallery?chronicleId=09000d5d80154067 )
Another example would be the "Wet T-Shirt" contest - that itself is something that gets debated on this forum as to whether or not it's considered to be wetlook, even though it meets the requirements of being wetlook. |

- if denim is your fetish....then you don't care how it is used...wet or dry...denim turns you on
- if wetlook is your fetish....then "context" is EVERYTHING...cos if you use a fabric in the wrong context (i.e. making a denim bikini) then it totally misses the concept you are looking for...
Nylon and satin are great fabrics for wet clothing scenes too....but a nylon swimsuit is not the right context that wetlook fans want to see....they would rather see a wet nylon shirt or slip dress or pants etc.
For me....wetlook it is all about "context" these days....and if something is purposely designed as a "swimsuit".,...then no matter how you look at it...it's a STILL a swimsuit....and thats "the norm"...and if I was a normal person...I would not be on this forum....ha ha.
I feel the same way about muslim burkhinis too....i.e. that outfit is purposely designed for swimming in....so it does nothing for me.....but an Indian sari is a different matter...cos that is not designed for swimming...so Indian wet sari scenes are much better than muslim burkhinis (even thought they may look similar) cos a sari is interesting...cos you know that was not designed for swimming in...whereas a burkhini is a big yawn cos it has no wetlook context....
but I am sure many of you have differing opinions....so I will turn the debate over to you guys...
