Ok fellow Skaters!!! Time to tell me how many costumes you own for your skating. Please say how many for pratice,Short/Long Programs (if you don't have a Long/Short Program,please include what you call them. Your Interpite,etc.). As well as for each of your Disciplines if you do more then one.

Ummm...wow
I think throughout all my ten years of skating i've had 5 dresses..a blue, a pink, a purple, a blue multicoloured, and a black with blue sparkles.
For practices I usually wear yoga pants and skating sweaters.

Skating, skating all day long, skating, skating all night long! May seem tiring to some people but not me, it's my life!!

Goals: Triple Loop, Novice Competitive, Sr.Silver Dances, Gold Artistic, and top 3 at Sectionals

I am blessed with 4 beautiful dresses (for when I get enuf skills for a program ), plus 2 Interpretive costumes, plus my sparkly rainbow Practice dress.
.

Too many! Although I did get rid of some of my larger ones when I lost weight.

Ice dancers have lovely big curves!

I have a wide selection of practice dresses, they are like potato chips - I just can't stop. One really sparkly nice competition dress, and one less sparkly elegant one. Several are too small - some because I gained weight and some because sizing is weird. I really need to find a way to sell some off.

It's all about the dress!

3 freestyle competition dresses:
1 black long sleeve w/clear and red stones (Del Arbour)
1 bright purple sleeveless w/AB and purple stones (Del Arbour)
1 navy sleeveless strappy with AB stones (China Ebay seller)

Dance/former synchro/interp dresses that I currently wear as needed:
1 red halter w/AB & red stones (Freida B)
1 spanishy red with black lace (China Ebay seller)
1 blueish purplish '08 synchro dress (Del Arbour)
1 black with clear crystals, was 07 synchro dress (Del Arbour)
1 brown with amber stones (cocktail dress I bought for $30 and shortened)
1 green/yellow/kilian dorky, was '05 synchro dress before I added the dorky kilian stuff (Del Arbour)
1 dark purple one shoulder velvet with glittery material, was '04 synchro dress, it's a little too small and I don't actually wear it now but if it fit again I might (Jerry's)

1 purple/red dance dress with AB crystals (made by Del Arbour) is in the mail on its way to me, bought it used from the Hayden synchro teams for $90 (Lexettes jr team wore it for their long in '07-ish)

Practice dresses (which I hardly ever wear, mostly they were from college or synchro):
1 black dance dress from when I was on Crystallettes (Del Arbour)
1 navy/orange trim freestyle dress, I went to Syracuse for grad school and it was our practice dress, hence the orange, it's actually a cute practice dress (Del Arbour)
1 navy velvet dress (another Syracuse practice dress)
1 red velvet, I think it's Capezio, was a practice dress and I think we wore them for team compulsories when I was an undergrad at Miami Univ
1 black/pink top with black mesh over it (JK Elite), I actually wear this one more than the rest
1 burgundy strappy velvet (Capezio), too small but I keep it in the drawer for wishful thinking!
1 white strappy practice dress and 1 black one, same dress diff colors (more Capezios), also too small but wishful thinking.
Might be a few more lurking in that drawer, I'm not even sure.

And in my skating closet, I have a whole big box containing 16 more old synchro costumes I've worn over the years and there are probably a ton of leotards, wrap skirts, and practice dresses from my much smaller days hanging out in there. There are a few that I could see myself wearing again if I fit back into them, like my Egyptian one (I'd skate to Cleopatra). But most of them are horribly out of style, very program-specific, or there are some that are just downright hideous. Like a neon yellow/neon green/neon orange ice show costume from a group ice show number in college (we skated to Austin Powers), complete with go-go boot skate covers.

I don't think I have any skating dresses left in the cloet- the lycra on the last one went crummy and I salvaged the rhinestones before tossing it out.

I'm not a clothes horse by any stretch of the imagination and I seem to like dress codes and uniforms lately, lol. (Black turtleneck, sweats and rink jacket)

I've never BOUGHT a skating dress for myself other than one synchro outfit. I always sewed my own dresses. Some were awful (real velvet without panties?) some were awesome (aquamarine with stones and appliques everywhere) and some were forgettable (plain navy blue stretch velvet.)

My kids have way too many dresses, most of which we purchased. The dresses from skating shows are usually not durable, so most of them bought the farm.

I need to clean out their closet and make some new dresses for them that fit. I think they've grown 5" since last year.

__________________

Well over 50 skating costumes that I have designed and sewn myself. I have assorted practice dresses for all temperature ranges, and then all my competition dresses for freestyle and interp (some of the interp costumes are with pants rather than dresses).

I can vouch for sexyskates, she has a huge selection of beautiful dresses.

I probably have 10 competition dresses and several practice dresses. I've sold many off on eBay over the years. Since I also coach, I tend to wear pants to practice nowadays.

DH always jokes that he knows which days I go to the rink because I'll be wearing warm sweat pants and a turtleneck before donning my rink jacket.

If I go to the rink in casual or dressy clothes (or with my hair down), the desk staff does a double take because they don't recognize me in "civvies."

I usually wear leggings for practice. I just finished sewing another dress, and I sold off a few at my club's "closet swap" sale so my count is about 5-6 total (mostly costume-type of dresses and one very hideous dress that I couldn't even GIVE away LOL).
