Yulia Lipnitskaya

I made a fan video of Yulia skating to My Heart Will Go On from Titanic.

It took me like 10 minutes to find a clean version of the song on YouTube (meaning no weird dialogue or stuttering Jack-sicles) and less than 15 minutes to cut the song in a way that isn't completely unlistenable so....that's something random that happened... :slink:

That's really good! I wish I could find a TSFH song that matches Yulia.
 
^Thank you!

I was wondering as I made that video though....the boards of the rink have an ad for KLM and I was wondering if Yulia has any kind of affiliation with that airline? I remember she once posted something on Instagram(?) about being on a KLM flight or something. I ask because her costume kinda looks like the KLM stewardess uniforms....like do we know the actual inspiration behind the costume?

I'm not sure but it is probably inspired by sailor costume because her program is about girl waiting for her boyfriend who is sailor but he never come back but I can be wrong.
 
I thought she looked great in it and was surprised how many folks didn't like that dress. Then again...she'd look great in hockey gear IMO :o:
 
What on earth is that furry grey gigantic caterpillar looking thing on the edge of the table in the background? Somehow I don't think it belongs there. :scard7:

:laugh2: Caterpillars are kind of cute, but my guess would be, fuzzy boom mic cover? :shrug:

When I was in Japan, girls had bigger, similar fuzzy objects hanging from their bags though....so maybe a keychain of some sort?
 
I think the dress is just based on the style of women in the 40's. Take a look at this dress.

Thank you for this information. William Joseph's music goes from loneliness, to a waltz, to soaring bliss, and back to loneliness. Yulia provides a parallel visual drama. She reaches out in loneliness, then dances a waltz, then leaves the earth in flight, then returns to loneliness. While this emotional drama (from reality to daydream and back to reality) is clear, there is no narrative. Her costume is a clue to her personal narrative, suggesting that she wants to express feelings experienced when a sweetheart is lost in war. We can infer from this that she is reminding us how wartime Leningrad affected so many Russians, then and now.
