Default aussiebum 1.5" classic

I´ve ordered my new Aussiebum 1.5" classic. It fits great but there is one thing I didn't notice , or well, I wouldn´t ever know since I got it. it's a little bit transparent swimsuit. in the crotch side it is more covered , but in the sides and the buttocks I think its too transparent. the question is: will it look too revealing when wet?

Aussiebum light and ice blues are famous for their transparency. The only thing to do is to wear it in the shower and pose in front of the mirror, you may have to restrict this swim suit to lonely beaches and the bedroom.

Default new ABs

A question to Aussie Bum might be appropriate. You appear to have purchased Azure within a "brand new range of colors" and if a brand new "Azure" has appeared what's the difference from the previous "Royal Blue" ? (comparing the zoom-ins on the AB website the blue color on one is the same as the shade of blue on the other - so what's "brand new" about it?)

Under the description, its showing a 4 out of 10 for sheer rating, so it will be transparent alittle bit when its wet. Like that said, jump in the shower and look in a mirror or take a picture of yourself.

Default well..

I'm really a bit sad having bought this item without knowing that it was not suitable to wear even at a speedo friendly beach. but two thinks make me still happy:

1. Now I own a original AB suit, being so difficult and expensive to get in my country (Peru).
2. I still like the colour and the way it looks.
3. One more for my collection, I have only this and a water polo suit, but more to come this next year. I bought on ebay a japanese arena swuimsuit, very low rise, and I'm very excited about it.

maybe some of you'd think I'm still in the "beginner level". yes I do, but I'm happy beginning with this nice collection and getting advice from you all: so thank you guys!

A 4 out of 10 for sheer rating, isn't that bad in transparency. Even if the sides and the buttocks being more transparent.

In my view and believe of a country like Peru, I thought that level of partly transparency would be acceptable in public beaches. Not conservative like much of the U.S.

One way of wearing an aussibum if you have issues with muffin tops of think you do.

The thin nylon can be bought in a much larger side, use the string to make it light enough no to fall, but extra fabric is just a "casual way of looking" .. most people who've never eaten too much and wants to wear a Speedo
