I am watching plain old NBC, so I haven't seen any curling. But the ice
dancing costumes are hilarious! Some of them seem to have things stuck all
over them. Some of the women's costumes are "cut away" in very strange
places. Last night I came in the middle of one team with very nice costumes
-- I particularly liked the man's, which was a sort of burgundy costume and
had a giant cross embroidered on the back of it. My husband and I were
trying to figure out what the dance was supposed to be about, and the
announcers both remarked that the costumes told the story, and it was nice
to see a dance that was so easy to interpret! Our guess was Romeo and
Juliet, because she had a sort of Juliet cap on and they seemed to both die
at the end. But I never was certain.

My favorite outfits are the snowboarding ones, they are just too funny.
Someone went to a LOT of trouble to design bulky skiing clothes that could
hang off people's bottoms just like sweat pants!! And a lot of them have
pinstripes, which is another fun touch.
