Didn’t you ever get into water with your clothes on, deliberately or not? Not everyone likes it, but it is usually very funny. And some people like to do it often – either being sober or not, during parties or without any occasion – and to look at it. This site is for and about those who like to get wet and to watch someone being wet.

It can be done in summer in city fountains, or in the countryside, or in nightclubs, if there is a swimming-pool or a shower there. It’s such a fun to get wet when the weather is nice! In Thailand, for instance, when celebrating New Year (Songkran holiday) people in the streets get dressed nicely and pour water over each other for five days to get symbolically free form filth of ignorance, foolishness and aggression.

For some people wearing wet clothes means a pleasure of overall soft touch to the whole body. It can make us more decided and free. And it certainly makes us more healthy by increasing inner warmth. Tibetan monks use this warmth when they compete drying up wet clothes on their bodies in winter.

It can also be a certain fashion style. Wet clothes on the body look very specially, they become a part of appearance, accentuating shapes, concealing and revealing. Wet fashion is a new trend in Europe, so it’s not very far-famed.

This site contains my wet-pictures. This it the result of my walks with friends (I’d certainly love young models to be on my pictures instead of me) and pictures taken during holidays when Kyiv youth bathes in the city fountains in Maidan Nezalezhnosti. It all usually takes place on the Day of Kyiv in the last weekend of May, or on the Day of Independence, or in any warm day in summer, when concerts are being arranged there.

You can see that bathing in fountains is very popular in Kyiv. Maidan now presents 10 fountains of various styles, being eclectically united on a field. The fountains are new, they were constructed on 2001. The old fountain, that disappeared as the result of this reconstruction, was much more cool and suitable for bathing, however.

I also decided to make a special section for the best of my pictures. I’d like to thank to my friends Veronica, Yura, Alex, Andrey and Dima for taking pictures of me in Crimea, and Liliya Dugan for the English translation.

I’ll appreciate it if you comment on my pictures. I’ll be very glad to get acquainted, especially if like to bathe with your clothes on.
