Tracylynn-ITA! I thought it was a little too reminiscent of some of Evgeny's past costumes and current. I mean if you do the "body costume" RIGHT it can look great, but on TImothy, it just isn't going to work. Sorry Timmy!

WELL Johnny Weir's "get-ups" are quit...uhh...interesting. He's artistic, but his costumes tend to distract the artistry from his skating into his very loud costumes choices.

Scroll down until you find him.

Yikes that costume Johnny's wearing looks like the male version of Sasha's first Swan Lake dress. I knew they were close but...?

Okay, I don't know who he is, but that picture beneath the second one of Johnny Weir, the Russian Andrei Griazev....uh, hon, lose the tassels. Just...no.

I agree but Zhang in all those picture i think is worse than Johnny's!

PLus i don't Griazev's longer hair suits hiom as much as a shorter style...still he's reminding me of Abt with that hair, which is no bad thing!

My first reaction to Zhang's SP costume was it looks like he's dressed as Don Knott's character (Mr. Firley?) from the TV series Three's Company. And that's not meant as a compliment.

Brian Joubert's psychedelic-70's disco FS costume (the one with the plunging neckline).

He's skating to "Lord of the Dance" (Irish music) and I just don't see the relevance.

Ever since Takeshi Honda's costume from a few years ago, the one which had strips of toilet paper hanging from it, they all look good to me.

OK. So far this season, here are my nominations:

Ladies. Onda. What the heck is that? Idora Hegel. My hubby's Barber designed her LP costume.

Men: Joubert gets my vote for consistency of bad costumes.

Pairs: Aganina of the UZB pair gets one nomination, but it's actually for the Wedgie category. Then again, I haven't seen much ice dancing yet this season.

Dance: will reserve until I've seen more Polka costumes. I'm suspecting some doozies there.

After taking a close look at the photo Dee4707 just posted, someone should tell Timmy that Halloween is over. What's with that stuff on his right arm and hand?

I think it's supposed to be flames (he's a demon from the netherworld).

His coach has said they're dumping this costume.

OH MY!! I have a feeling we'll crash the board if we nominate everyone who should be rightly nominated. That looks like a whole new low in headband fashion too.

Goodness! That is a terrible photo of them - makes them look like they are doing the birdie dance!!! And the headband - definitely Navka's trademark
