We're unable to provide any kind of rational explanation for this, but the latest swimwear craze at this year's Bon Soo Polar Bear Swim was the duct-tape bra (shown).

The fashion accessory, which appeared to defy both logic and gravity, was sported by a handful of participants in Saturday's swim at Bellevue Park.

It is always worn outside another piece of clothing, and SooToday News has it on good authority that wearing a duct-tape bra in any other fashion necessitates an excruciating removal process afterward.

At least one male, who seemed more handy than handsome, employed the uplifting device during Saturday's dip.
