Okay! So which skater's had the best outfits? Remember, this is regardless of how they skated...JUST on how they looked. :P I think my top ten goes like this:

1. MICHELLE KWAN: I love her dresses every year
2. Sasha Cohen: 2003 Worlds long program dress(I think she had two long program dresses, and sadly, I can't remember which one she wore at Worlds...but I LOVED the blue dress she wore at some competitions this season)
3. Alexei Yagudin: 2002 Olympic short program outfit
4. Lu Chen: 1996 Worlds long program dress
5. Sale/Pelletier: 2002 Olympic long program outfits (or, 2000 Worlds long program)
6. Fumie Sugari: 2003 Worlds long program dress
7. Berezhnia/Sikhulizia: 2002 Olympic long program outfits
8. Elvis Stojko: 1998 Olympic long program outfit
9. Bourne/Kraatz: 2002 Olympic free dance outfits

The very best for me is:
1. B&S 98 Olympics SP (light blue costume) - simply stunning, showing off their gorgeous bodies the best way :)

Other B&S costumes (IMO they are the best dressed pair out there)
2. B&S 02 Olympics SP&LP
3. B&S 99 Worlds LP - simple but beautiful, again showing their lines the best way
4. B&S 01 Worlds SP - sofisticated red hot dress ;)

Other skaters:
5. Kwan 96&97 Worlds LP (the girl has good taste, I like most of her costumes :))
6. Chen 96 Worlds LP - she looked stunning there
7. G&G 94 Olympics LP - simple elegant beautiful
8. M&D 94 Olympics LP - suited them the best
9. Abt 02 Olympics LP - probably my fav man costume ever
10. A&P 98 Olympics LP - they made a great R&J!

There are probably other costumes that could make my top10 but these are the ones that comes to my mind right now.

Surya Bonaly's dresses designed by Yves Saint-Laurent and Christian Lacroix....She was just shining in all of them. All her costumes are designed by the best French designers: trendy, sofisticated..
Her white one in 94 was just incredibly beautiful...

I agree with many of the choices...Sarah Hughes' sp dress from the OLY was , IMO, so elegant. I loved it. Her lp dress was also lovely. Why did she stop going to Jef Billings?...What he created for her Oly programs was terrific.

Really? I can't say I ever really cared for Bonaly's dresses...They were a little too flashy for me...:??
