Oooh love that blue jumpsuit. Simple, elegant and flattering

I don't think jumpsuits are ever flattering, at best they show off your amazing figure.

But I agree that the simple elegance is very nice.

Livia i hate that pink rag with a passion

I think It wouldn't have been that bad if the top part is the same shade of pink instead of darker

Aha!!!

See, this is why I hate it when girls take on their husband's surnames when they get married. And especially sportspeople. I would never have worked out that it was Shkuleta-Gromova.

Thank you!

I understand...
In another sport, there was a Norwegian man who got married and he added the wife's surname too. But they added the wife's surname before his one. When the new season started, the live graphics was cutting out the second surname (which is his original one), so only the wife's one was appearing ...and I thought he was a new young athlete for a couple of races....
With women, I always go and check if it was an old name after marriage. With men, I forgot about the option as it is less common.

my baby girl!

And mine is in this group too!

I have to say, I love what my girl Aleksandra was wearing during the introductions.

And she did a really nice combination jump when the rinkside announcer was talking about her at the start the Warm-Up.

But, she had a hand down doing another jump in the background of a shot near the end of the Warm-Up. She made up for it shortly afterwards, when she did a lovely combination.

As I said at the start, I am not ready for this.

Livia is on !

Livia's 3+3 was so good Chris thought it was a double! That was great!

Very nice skate from Livia!

I don't understand the dress though. Looks like two halfs of two different dresses. Is this meant as some kind of metaphor?

 

[elektra blue]

i think we got ourselves a new leader.

 

[Jumping_Bean]

Very nicely done, Livia

Livia's outfit is really terrible. I think the worst might be the tiara thing though.

Why?

To me showing off one's amazing figure is the very definition of 'flattering'

 

[elektra blue]

I think It wouldn't have been that bad if the top part is the same shade of pink instead of darker

or if she took it away and just kept the dress

I think It wouldn't have been that bad if the top part is the same shade of pink instead of darker

I think the lower part is worse because it reminds me of the bathing suits of 4 year old girls.

Wow! Beautifully done 3-3 and 2A from Livia. Very well done!

That's my kid, Aleksandra Golovkina!

She has an absolutely beautiful black dress this season too!

(I'm not a big fan of jumpsuits either).

I thought flattering means it hides your weaknesses.

rotate, Alina, rotate

 

[EdgeCall]

The Swiss are coming!

 

[lileychristie]

66!!!! Wow!! I guess that means possible multiple 70+ scores in the end?

 

[elektra blue]

not the skate she wanted but she's a performer
