Favorite Skating Costume of All Time

Nancy Kerrigan's Vera Wang champagne dress for the 1994 Lillehammer Olympics is The Classic's Classic. Never before a female skater looked that gorgeous (of course because that design was 'time-changing') and then it redefined how a female skater could look while competing (at least for the Americans).

Absolutely agree.
 
Favorite Skating Costumes:

Ice Dance: ***This is my favorite in a funny way. I'm from Texas, I listen to country music and watch skating videos on Youtube, and this ended up in my recommendations. It's the Kerrs 2010 Euros performance. When I clicked on it about 35 seconds in I started saying 'no, no...' :disapp:

Pairs: Volosozhar/Trankov 2014 Short program, a true costume that worked fabulous with the program:

Indeed, yet quite far from being the best ever.

Says who? The title of this post is "Favorite Skating Costumes". The dress I mentioned is my favorite, that doesn't mean I expect anyone else to agree with me. But it is my personal favorite- what I consider to be the best. None of us could ever possibly agree on what the "best ever" is. Like a lot of figure skating, it is way too subjective.

Well if we're talking Coatumes then I'm going with this ;)
 
If I have to pick just one, I must say this, Mishkutenok & Dmitriev's Rachmaninov. I always loved this costume. Unconventional yet stylish.
Aljona&Robin's Pink Panther, Stèphane's Zebra costume to Four Seasons, Lipnitskaya's Schindler's List also come close.
