Oh I remember those, they are gloriously theatrical and dramatic I have found pictures on the getty images site too (one of my favourite places to get pictures of the less well known skaters)

Anastasiia Gubanova's free skate costume is literally a work of art!

I'm pretty sure the costume went viral on Twitter or something and had like 60k likes...

Haein's new mermaid dress was showstopping!
And Gubanova's FS dress of course.

The fun fact is that Haein's dress was actually created for a different program - the "My way" one (horrible cover). She ditched the program and brought back Sirens but at first she wore her old dress and then brought back the my way dress as it turned out to be quite suitable to Sirens as well.

Here's her performance to My Way at Denis Ten Memorial wearing that dress:

According to ChatGPT:

Amber Glenn​

Short Program — “Like a Prayer” — 2026 Winter Olympics
At the 2026 Olympic Short Program, Glenn’s Madonna-inspired burgundy lace dress (Lisa McKinnon) achieved memorability through cultural specificity and silhouette control. The off-the-shoulder neckline referenced 1989 iconography while stabilizing upper-body carriage in step sequences; layered cruciform jewelry created kinetic shimmer without interfering with spins. The rich oxblood tone photographed powerfully against Olympic ice lighting, ensuring instant visual recall. Many dresses were beautiful this season — this one was indelible because it fused pop history, emotional sincerity, and competitive polish into a single unmistakable image.

Thanks for sharing these. They are hilarious

Mone Chiba's free skate dress. The pink one, not the blue one. For me the pink one just works better with Romeo and Juliet music

The dress for Amber's short AND the woman who skated to Jaws. I thought her costume was terrific and funny.

Here's Lara Naki Gutmann

 

[gsk8]

I really liked Gutmann's Jaws program

So far, my most memorable dresses are for:
Nina Pinzarrone (Handmaid's Tale / FS)
Alysa Liu ("platinum" FS dress)
Anastasiia Gubanova (Unchained Melody / FS)
Isabeau Levito (Moon River (red) / SP)

While there are so many others, these are ones that I will "remember".

Haein Lee's Siren short program dress is the most memorable to me

I finished editing my manuscript so to celebrate, some more of Team Korea girls:

Kim Chaeyeon, SP (Qui a le droit)

Shin Jia, SP (Chopin Nocturne No.20)

You Young, SP (Mosaic)

Kim Seoyoung, FS (Gladiator)

Yun Ahsun, SP (East of Eden)

Kim Chaeyeon, FS (Whisperers from the Heart)
*This is not quite 25-26 as it was mostly used for 24-25, but she wore it at 2026 Nationals and it's beautiful so I'm adding it

They are all so glorious... the Korean girls really need a special award all of their own.

Oh yes! Starr has had some of the best, most unusual and personal and gorgeous costumes for some years, and these - especially the black and silver - and gorgeous. I am looking forward to what she and her new pairs partner wear.

So I was reminded of a thing I did back in the 19-20 season and I spent way, wayyyyyy too much time on this, but just in case you want to judge the 2025-2026 Korean Figure Skating Costume Awards: https://forms.gle/YHEGpizrkyewytH59
