Kamila Valieva

That’s really cool, that they hired a ballerina to help Kamila ! I hope she can help her to elevate Bolero and take it to a new level

I liked the old one too though.

Best of luck to Kamila today!

Not her best, but still beautiful skating. It is invaluable experience to fall a couple of times before the major events.
By the way, I like the previous dress a little more.

Kamila says she wanted an even longer skirt. She likes how long skirts look on ice, she imagines it as if it was a long dress. But coaches said that it’s better to make it a little shorter this time.

I love both her dresses. I would combine them both by putting the grey with the lilac purple. Best of both..however I like the new colours too. First time in senior competition nerves! Lot of pressure. She did well, such a beautiful skater and I love her..can't find a grey heart

Even in the photos you can see how she emotes and performs so well. That Ina Bauer is to die for.

Yes, she definitely deserves every point in PCS and more

I'm proud of Kamila's senior debut even if it came with a mistake, it is nothing to be ashamed of.
The new dress is beautiful (but I was also a lover of the previous one so lol), and now I look forward to seeing the new Bolero outfit too! Best of luck to this lovely lady today

I think the SP dress matures her some, but the SP dress she used for the test skates was much better... but IIRC, that dress was specially made for an exhibition event by not the normal Team Tutberidze dress maker. The dress has is based on two colors that tend to draw the eye away for different reasons... one for a tacky warmness and one for dullness.

The new FS dress is a little better but black tights over the boots looks a little sloppy. If the new SP dress makes her look more mature, this one makes her look more juvenile. Maybe it can't be avoided, but I'd like to see stirips at least looked at.

It's fine if she goes forward with these dresses, but she's looks bland in comparison to how striking Zagitova looked during her Olympic programs.

So is this world record official?

Congratulations to Kamila on the well earned gold!

I wasn't 100% sure about the red in the new Bolero outfit, but in motion it looked fab. Silly of me to have doubted!

I rarely post on GS anymore, but this was my first time watching Kamila (I don't watch juniors) and WOW. I don't always love the Eteri school but those quads are QUADS! The lift she gets on her jumps is mesmerizing, never mind her ridiculous (as in ridiculously impressive) spin positions. I hope she's able to do this for years to come because she's something else. If she's on she's our next Olympic champ.
