On top I wear a long sleeve silk shirt, then a Duofold shirt, then my drysuit undies. Works great!! The silk helps wick moisture (sweat) away from your skin keeping you dryer........therefore warmer.

I'm currently looking into varous ways of doing things.
Right now I am layering like this:
TOP:
Nike Dri-Fit -> Undergarment
BOTTOM:
Underarmour -> Undergarment
I am going to try:
TOP:
Nike Dri-Fit -> Undergarment
BOTTOM:
Patagonia Capilene -> Undergarment
And for cold water/air
TOP:
Capilene -> Polarmax/Duofold Expedition weight -> Undergarment
BOTTOM:
Capilene -> Polarmax/Duofold Expedition Weight -> Undergarment
So essentially, a wicking layer, and then warmth or layered warmth.

I have a friend that uses silk. I generally use a silk like layer of very thin polypropylene under the thicker thermals.
