Functional Fashion, Thursday, June 5
The class was gathered at the beach this time, rather than in the classroom; Lulu had handwavily instructed them to meet there, wearing what they would normally wear for beachwear. Lulu herself was dressed in a tankini, looking rather comfortable where she lay on her towel as the class approached.
"Good morning," she said, smiling warmly. "I rather thought we should take advantage of the wonderful weather we're getting right now, given the subject of today's class. We're discussing clothing that reveals -- bathing suits and underwear. They both serve very particular functions: swimwear is designed to preserve your modesty while you are swimming, and underwear offers a layer of protection between you and your clothing, and keeps things... well-contained as you move about. Some underwear is practical in design, often having very little in the way of decoration or adornment; other pieces of underwear can be colourful, or adorned with lace. This underwear is usually worn with the intention of having it seen by others -- either tauntingly, glimpses given through your regular clothing, or completely, with someone with whom you intend... intimate relations.
"But what," Lulu continued, "is enough? What is too much?" She stood, gracefully, her long body stretching beneath her. "An outfit like this is actually rather more covering than many modern bathing outfits. Some people, of course, wear even more, but a great many wear very little. Chad?" Lulu called. Chad came over, wearing... very little [NSFW-ish]. The orange swim-briefs left very little to the imagination, clinging tightly to Chad's body and showing off his... assets, just as much as Lulu's tankini showed off her... tracts of land. "While Chad is able to pull off this look, most people cannot. That's what we're going to discuss today: how much is too little? I'd like you to pair off, please, and compare the bathing suits that you are each wearing. Discuss how much they reveal -- how little they cover. The trade-off here is sexual appeal vs. protection from the sun; discuss if you each feel the trade-off has not gone too far."
