Morphology

looker = look (semi-transparent) = look + er

While 'looker' is derived from 'look' with the suffix '-er', the meaning shift to 'an attractive person' is not fully transparent.

Etymology

The word looker comes from the simple verb look 'to see' plus the ending -er 'one who'. So a looker became a way to name someone people 'look' at because they are attractive, someone who 'catches the eye'.
