Abstract

This design provides a dramatic, elegant figure skating dress that complements the Italian theme music of two romantic, 19th- century composers and enhances the power and grace of the skater. A horizontal line at the shoulders gives the appearance of breadth and creates a more powerful image. Designers look for lace that might contribute structure and openwork to a long sleeve and provide elegance. Music, the program choreography, and the lace inspired the choice of fabric. Elegant, ivory bridal lace (2 1/4") was used to structure the long sleeves.
