That's one of at least a couple of fairly new designs out of Australia. It is designed to make divers less visually stimulating to sharks. In this case, it is supposed to make the diver blend more in the water.

They also have a black and white banded version that is supposed to simulate the markings of the highly venomous sea snake.

I don't know how proven the concepts are.

Camo wet suits is as much marketing as there's some science behind it.

Much like hunting land animals, most fish eyes are tuned for movement. Movement and noise discipline is more important than getting yourself decked-out in the latest camo; hunting in wool and buffalo plaid flannel was pretty common before the proliferation and marketing excesses of Mossy Oak & Realtree. Same applies to the water environment, however there's a wider variety of animals below the surface with a crazy variety of eye-types so, just depends on what you're hunting/fishing or, trying to keep getting noticed from. Ultimately, if you're spearfishing, you better have good hover skills and stop fidgeting. Camo in-general is visually stimulating to human eyes so, putting a hot girl with a good print will get everyone all excited.

That is an amazing creature and is about as close as I want to be from it- my living room.

No way her parents gave her that name. That's just too on the nose. It's almost as good and appropriate a name as Reality Winner.

Dig a bit deeper and you'll see the photographer calls himself Juan Sharks

Let me see if I can piss him off."

So I’m looking at this thread and wondering “Why are there 3 pages of comments?”
Now I know.
Oh. My.
The shark’s impressive, too.
