Flesh colored material on costumes. Yay or nay?

only if they're too tight.
If you're speaking literally, I'd say that tights or formfitting leggings/unitards are more difficult to pull off after skating, especially when they're sticky with sweat.
It's usually the latter that we see on female skaters, anyway.
For an example of a woman wearing draped trousers, such as a man might wear, in competition, all I can come up with is this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qaqag3LTHM

If you talk about pants these two alway come up to my mind:

What are man-kinis? I'm sure I've seen them before but I just didn't get the reference.

I think Bebe Liang looks great in her pants as did Fumie in her "Paint it Black" outfit. Carolina didn't look bad either. Much better than the feather skimpy skirts she wore. I think the key is legging-like pants that pull over the top of the boot, not "bootcut" yoga pant-like pants like just look dorky:

^it really didnt cross my mind the poster was reffering to this, besides the mankini pic i saw was different! I would think you were talking about competitive costumes or something
Oh I was actually talking about Dan Zhang's costume last season.

I think you mean Hao Zhang..
Dan would look completely X-rated in any of the examples we've seen so far..
I didn't mind Hao's costume..just a reference to the ballet costumes , without going OTT with harem pants and feathered turban. Maybe a gold vest would have been recieved better. I have to say I was really surprised at the negative response it recieved , considering the "nakedness" that has been so prevalent in female costmes , and often defended as artistic. In the end , their replacement costumes seemed completely unrelated to the music and the choreography , so for me they were much worse.
