How many costumes Mao has??????She must have tons of costumes since her competitive era.

 

[aftertherain]

I have come to the conclusion that Mao's favorite color is either any shade of purple or red/black.

According to the interview, Peter Oppegard designed Yu-Na's costume and Karen Kwan gave him a lot of idaes. It was made by Jan Longmire who made a lot of Sasha Cohen's costumes.

I much prefer Mao's SP costume from four continents. I'm not feeling all the black strings looping around her torso.

Yuna's SP costume is very pretty and certainly unique for a Giselle program.

Definitely do not like this one! I can't see the Sato's choosing something like this for her--they seem to go for the more subtle look, which I prefer.

I quess it was definitely designed by TAT or one of her designers.
At least, it's really Russian, I think. I think it'll be quite OK for the eyes of most of Russian audience.

oh God, I really love Mao but I hate that dress. She is such beautiful delicate, young lady, why she wears something like this? maybe it'll look better in motion...

 

[Morning Glory]

I felt the taste of TAT, too. At first, I don't like this costume, but this angle is better.

I like Yuna's costume. Unusal for Giselle, but IMO very much suited to the tone of her program. And that shade of blue compliments her ivory skin beautifully. GO YUNA!!

No one will win Kate's wedding dress today anyway ^^.

 

[alexeifan]

Don't like either of these ladies dresses, ew, expected something better.

 

[Hanaka]

I've always thought Russians have a different taste in costumes from that of NA and Asia. They seem to prefer more decorative, theatrical and dramatic costumes, which sometimes might make us think "too much", but it is their taste and culture.
And hey, do you know that Japanese don't dislike Russian style either?

 

[Morning Glory]

Agreed

Agreed! I think the Royal Wedding trumps Worlds for me today. Ahaha.

 

[alexeifan]

I thought yuna would have more a style of dress like Shizuka Arakawa's dress was. I think that style is cute. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PgTivbUNKWI It's more traditional and yuna's is too post-modern to me.

I was actually expecting to be disappointed by a copy of that dress, as so many other skaters have worn that style for Giselle. I like the actual costume much better.

I'm not russian but I read some posts on Russian forum and it seems like most people don't like Mao's new dress.

I'm Japanese, but I do dislike Russian style if Mao's costume represent Russian style.

Well, I'm not saying all Japanese. I'm just saying I know there are a lot of FS fans in Japan who like Russian style. Of course I know there are fans who don't care for it that much. As for Mao's costume, I know some fans like it, and some others don't.

So do you like or dislike Mao's costume? I'm confused. Or is it that I am just cutting in your talking to yourself?
