Ice Dancers - what do they wear?
It must be awfully cold but obviously they can't wear lumpy clothes!
Sequins and colorful fabrics makes them sparkle on the floor.
IceDance.com has quite a lot of information on ice dancing, including the kinds of dresses ice dancers wear. Here is some additional information: the athletes wear cheesy outfits, unique to the sport. Dancers on ice need to feel comfortable in their outfits, but they need the clothing to accent their graceful moves and flowing steps. The outfits are designed with this in mind. Women must wear dresses or skirts; pants are not allowed. Men must wear full-length trousers. These outfits mimic the look of ballroom dancers. All the costumes are made of colorful fabrics with sequins and sparkles. If you know of people who create ice dancers' costumes, please do write to me!
