This is stunning! Someone on IG (@idkphw) translated what the broadcasters were saying -

I watched the broadcast today even though I went to the ice show last night. ALINA made great impression to Koreans in the Olympics and even in this performance in the ice show. The broadcaster talked about her performance first and her superior technical ability first. Then they expect her jumps, wondering it is not a competition but an ice show. At that very moment Alina attempted triple lutz triple loop and succeeded! They said in the video '

The broadcaster said in the video " It is amazing she did such a hardest jump in the ice show. Normally even man skater is not likely to attempt such a hard jump in the show. She is amazing!" Also they introduced Alina did her best even in the practice room and they said Alina must be a diligent and gutsy skater. I am happy to hear such compliment in the TV. SHE captured hearts of many people in the Olympic performance and this Icefantasia show

Thank you for that video she was spectacular. I know she's only 15 but she looks like a woman now. Her body and booty are filling out and there's no way to stop it. It's like even though she's only 15 she's gone from being a girl at the beginning of the season to being a woman now! Will her filling out some hurt her skating? Only time will tell but i hope not. whenever she's done growing she will still be a good bit smaller than Osmond for example.

Alina Zagitova has had an unbelievable season better than anyone could have imagined and she's topping it off with all these exhibitions looking so spectacular and enjoying every second of it as she should. She's a superstar.
 
I did a side by side picture montage of her Black Swan from the Olympics and then from Ice Fantasia (link at the end of the message). You have to adjust for size, angle, exact moment (these are pictures taken of movement), etc, so it is not a perfect match comparison, but you can get a rough idea.

The way the tutu sits at her legs, the way her hand grabs her skate (and where it hits the skate)...they all look very similar to me. The costume seems to fit her in roughly the same way, with very few changes here and there but nothing major.

By the way I love this costume, it deserved an award of its own. I know ballet tutu costumes are not everyone's cup of tea but as far as this category goes this is one of the best I've seen (the embroidery is stunning and the change color effect too).

To me, Alina looks kinda different in this show and I was wondering what has changed. When comparing the two pictures, it seems like the way she used to wear the tights over the boots made her legs look longer and thinner and now when she skates with the boots entirely visible, her figure looks differently. I don't think the slight change in height and weight or the way the dress fits her are contributing to the whole picture as much as the skates and the optical illusion the tights-over-boots effect creates.

Btw, Alina is fearless! Doing her 3Lz-3Lo perfectly at poor light again, not many skaters are that gutsy!

Interesting outlook. It's hard to pinpoint the changes she's going through physically but we all see that something is going on. Thankfully she skating great in these exhibitions well not having the best lighting to skate in either.

The costume looks even more amazing under the lights.

She's beautiful in both pics :) I've been reading some comments (not on here) about her and Zhenya looking a little heavier (so to speak, ofc they are incredibly slim!) and tbh, even if it was the case - there's no way they could be in the exact shape they were at OG in the off season. Literally no way, it would be unhealthy if they were considering that they aren't training nearly as much now!

Glad to see her (and Zhenya) enjoying herself in Korea and having fun skating!
