i have a diverse and colourful friend who wants a purple skinsuit!any ideas???
what is a purple skin suit?
I've heard of purple cows...
Ebay? Someone probably made one at one point in time. There's a gal around here who wears a flourescent pink one to TT's (and its full body too- arms and legs:eek: )
*edit* my, my the things one can find on ebay (no this is not a manequin - it really is a suit......) http://cgi.ebay.com/Metallic-Purple-...QQcmdZViewItem
A skin suit looks a bit like a short sleeved/legged wetsuit... but its made from lycra, has no pockets and is very tight - skin-tight in fact.Quote:

sunshine, does your friend want you to make the skinsuit for her/him?

Quite agree - it was made for something else entirely.... (but that is what appeared when "skin suit" + purple were searched.....Quote:

Not a Skin Suit per se - rowing clothingQuote:
