I think the costumes from last night's long program were an improvement over the compulsory dance ones. I was impressed that the few I saw actually seemed to fit the theme of the music--Romeo and Juliet, Carmen, and flamenco.
...and then there were the Italians! (http://www.nbcolympics.com/2006/0220/5121831_640X480.jpg)
My first reaction to their costume was "hey, that looks like something I'd put together when my daughter says 'Mom, can you make me a fantasy costume for an event...it starts in an hour'" My husband called it the "walked through a fabric store with glue on" look.
Second reaction was: "then again, it looks like a modern interpretation of some nice early Baroque opera costumes"
Of course, when the music started (music from movie 'Prince of Eygypt') I couldn't help but think "yeah I can see Moses and Zippora tending sheep in that outfit..."
But the skating was lovely! - Hope _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
