I was reminded of how exquisite Meryl Davis is as I watched the ice dance free dance at Nationals. The neat thing about her looks is that they're so individual. In profile, she has a strong nose. Full on, she has unusually set eyes and a narrow face. Add those unconventional looks to her expressiveness and you have a really magnetic ice presence...
And yesterday, I was also reminded of how lovely Evora Ladwig is. Her smile is especially warm and radiant.
if you mean amanda evora, i agree. evora ladwig is both lovely & handsome
anyway, the loveliest will always be gordeeva. michelle's beauty didn't come from her looks as much as katia's did, although they are both my favorite skaters

That's it! If a skater's not on this list, then U G L Y you ain't got no alibi (or isn't high profile enough for me to remember your mug).
at some people's selections. Although it's a good reminder that being graceful and beautiful at skating has little to do with the conventional kind of beauty which can be achieved merely by standing there.
How can you forget your own girl! (The hair-do alone...)

Ha! Yeah, definitely some "interesting" choices I'm seeing on here...although this whole thing is very subjective, of course. And I'll probably see things differently than most people on this forum anyway.
I think a lot of people are listing their favorite skaters/the most beautiful movers on ice. For me at least, that doesn't overlap much with the most physically beautiful skaters. Mao Asada, Kiira Korpi, Viktoria Helgesson, Tessa Virtue and Elena Ilinykh stand out to me and some of the most graceful and beautiful in terms of skating nowadays. And while they're all very attractive people, they're not absolutely flawlessly beautiful while standing still (super nitpicky of me I know). But really, I'd rather have them make beauty on ice than just be beautiful.
