It seems so, but the effect can last long enough as to appear permanent.
It's probably not a bug, and it sorts itself out fairly quickly now that I redownloaded (just to see if that would make a difference), but it's never happened before.
Sorry for the duplicate but there are a rather significant amount of issues relating to skins and most of the ones I found were reporting the opposite (everyone else being Steve but the bug reporter seeing their own skin).
This can happen in all game modes. Will try to get screenshots of second issue.
Any newly created world.
Any body of water.
But here's the world I tested it on anyway:
-9217778996234552499
x: 53
y: 63
z: 101
The issue does seem to disappear after quitting and then loading the world again, but I'm not sure how reliable that would be as a solution.

As long as I know it'll be gone in 1.8. Thank you
