Men's and women's wetsuits with experimental cuts and colors

BRAND: Mares
MODEL: Wetsuit
YEAR: 1991
CATEGORY: Sportswear
DESIGNER: Giorgetto Giugiaro
The element that directs design in this area is that of the materials from which wetsuits are made, which must be resistant to particular environmental conditions, and secondarily the components, which must be designed to be practical to wear and comfortable to use. The response to these needs resulted in fresh, new and sharply cut garments. These wetsuits, previously always characterized by the color black, were also revisited through experimentation with colors and patterns.
