Color in Costume Design

I stumbled across this website by Irina Romanova on color in costume design. I searched the forums and it hasn't been posted previously.

For Male Skaters:

Avoid very tight upper parts to your costume unless you like to lift weights.
Do not open the neckline too deep. (This is the female’s privilege.)
Pay attention to your shoulder pads. (They have to stay there where you put them even if you do a back flip in your routine!)
Like a woman’s skirt, light “flying” shirts are always better. Pants - not too short!
Match the color of your boots to color of the outfit you are wearing.
In my opinion, men always have to be men, no matter what routine he’s performing - less is better than more!
Smirnov obviously never read this.
