1 royal purple and 4 (shades of) red dresses. IMHO, these dresses are worth drooling over. With Michelle's Scheherazade dress, looking at the photos, I'm disappointed whenever she wears it without the belt. It just appeared odd. That said, I am a big fan of solid, bold colors with Indian bullion-esque embroidery as embellishments.

I voted for Sasha's swan lake. Both of her swan lake dresses were beautiful, but i kinda prefer the first one with the white and the black. She looked amazing in that.

Best ladies costumes last season

For 2008-2009 only, I like Carolina K's LP.dress the best.

Carolina's LP > Yuna's SP > Alissa's SP > Sarah's SP > Mao's SP (blue) > Miki's LP > Ashley's LP ...

 

[cornell08]

Someone should create a "Worst Costume" poll....

Baiul and Lambiel come to mind

Another Worst Costume Contender

Someone should create a "Worst Costume" poll....

Baiul and Lambiel come to mind

If the poll is open to all disciplines and includes exhibition skates then nothing can beat Baby Plush Sex Bomb!

 

[100yen]

I love how Mao's dress made it feel like she was actually at a Masquerade Ball

 

[sadalou]

For me Joannie Rochette always have the best costumes . I like all of the dresses she wore, except maybe the one of her "Firebird" program .

 

[Layfan]

Michelle Kwan's salmon Vera Wang for her 2004 LP to Tosca is my all-time favorite. Second would probably be one of Sasha's. But not her Swan Lake costume (either version.) Maybe her yellow dress for her 2004 SP. Third, Alissa' Czisny's black-and-white costume for her 2007 Audrey Hepburn-inspired LP.

 

[Layfan]

I loved Alissa's Swan costume. I also loved Michelle's costume for Lyrica Angelica.

Ah yes, another gorgeous one. I'm kinda disappointed with Alissa's costumes this year compared to last year.:indiff:

 

[Layfan]

Baiul and Lambiel come to mind

That poll would go on FOREVER ... Baiul's Olympic LP costume was god awful. Bu I kinda dug her over-the-top swan costume.
Lambiel... word. eeesh.

 

[n_halifax]

One of my favourite dresses of all time was Liz Manley's "Legends Of The Fall" dress...

 

[AnnaTheMusician]

Am I the only one who dislikes Carolina Kostner's 2009 LP costume? The colour is awful and doesn't fit to the ice, also the cut is boring. Sorry, guys One of my favourite is Kiira Korpi's SP costume on season 2007-2008 (black and white). Also Susanna Pöykiö's this season's LP costume is gorgeus, one of the best I've ever seen (OT: I also like the music very much, Philip Glass).

Alissa Czisny's 2009 LP costume was beautiful. Yu-na Kim's 2007 LP (light blue) was also very beautiful and fit her. I also like this season's Bond costume. Most of Michelle Kwan's costumes were awesome!

There should be a poll for the most awful costumes. I'd have many favourites I prefer simplicity with some details and hate a cut with lots of scissors (you know what I mean?).

 

[futureidol]

I think Ashley Wagner has great costumes this season, and I loved Alissa's last year. I always love Mao's though! She has the guts to be different.

 

[AnnaTheMusician]

I don't like any of Mao's this season costumes, too much everything (eg. flowers ) Her 2008 and 2009 season's LP costume were ok - although I don't like that neck thing because she doesn't have that long neck.

 

[Yschntä]

I think the pink one for the sp is ok, but I really don't like the black-grey-red one for her freeskate. At the beginning of this season, Mao wore a black-blue one which I didn't love, but it was ok and much better than the one she wears now. Like you said, AnnaThe Musician, it's just too much. Mao doesn't look like Mao anymore in this costume...
