The History of Figure Skating Dresses

A breezy look at figure skating fashion:  https://www.facebook.com/PureWow/videos/1938507382846111/  Hopefully the link will open properly.  Couldn't figure out how to post the actual video.

  1. I really enjoyed this video--fun to see all the styles changing along with how glamorous skating has become! Got me thinking--and what will you be wearing to the rink today? That pair of black tights? Or that one? Thanks for posting!

  3. I'm a male skater and this was an absolutely fascinating video! I was recently watching the 1990 documentary "Magic Memories on Ice" (you can find it on Youtube) and that had a similar fascinating glance at how competitive figure skating has changed in style somewhat over the years (and not just the clothing, although you can see that too!)
