I think those who are not dancing tonight are wearing their launch show dress.

I loved all the women's dresses tonight- that's a first for me!

In love with Aliona and Sophie's dresses. Especially the colours.

Yes, the non-dancers usually wear their launch show outfits for the opening shows.

Was pleasantly surprised at the outfits tonight - wonder how long that will last.

I was about to post exactly this but you beat me to it. Sophie and Aliona looked gorgeous. I hope this is a sign of things to come for the rest of the series.

Loved all the girls dresses but for the men, sparkly black just looks like plastic trousers and dandruff shirt

Absolutely in love with: Natalie's dress, Tony's costume,
quite liked: Aliona's dress, Sophie's dress
No opinion: Susanna, Kevin, Bredan Also can't say anything about Ivetta and Mark because I can't remember and there isn't a clear picture
Not liking: Ashley and Ola's costumes,
Absolutely abhorred: Artem's costume, Tess' dress



btw: can there be a thread to talk about the clothes each week, or would that quickly bleed out? I would post....

I loved loads of the costumes tonight, specially Sophie's dress and Iveta's and would have loved Aliona's in a different colour cos I'm not a fan of blue

I thought that the women's dresses were all lovely tonight especially Sophie's Alionas and Ivetas

But they seem to have concentrated on them and threw together last minute things for the men , poor Artme and his socks, and Mark and Ashley just looked a mess

not that i'm much of an expert on it, but the costumes (for the women, anyway) were so much of an improvement on the cheap tacky gaudy lycra of recent years, that i don't think it can possibly be the same people providing them this year.

the mens were less impressive, excluding artem's which was hilarious. in a bad way.

Tony was the best dressed male and Sophie the best dressed female.

With Ballroom I like long dresses most of the time (though not covering the feet) and tails on the men (unless it's the Tangos). If a dress is particularly cute and classy then I can tolerate it being closer to the knee than the ankle, so I wasn't in uproar over Sophie's dress. She actually looked nice, and Brendan and her (look wise) fitted well with the dance and the entire feel of the routine).

I didn't like the wardrobe for Natalie or Artem, but I suppose it offered some laughs, eps as he spent too long getting his spray tan done (or the tone was misjudged).

I tend not to like Latin numbers (on men or women) most of the time, and just tolerate the main bulk of them with the exception of one or two outifts which can look less fancy dress and more what you'd be seen in public with (though that's a rarity).

I didn't like Mark's shirt, but Iveta's dress (which was ok) detracted enough I think (along with their routine).

I did wonder "what on earth...." when Artem appeared until the band eventually got into the song - although I don't think Rasputin ever dressed like a cossack!

Didn't like Sophie's dress at all. Far too cutsey and 1950s, a waltz should be elegant and sophisticated, that dress just didn't do it.

The rest of the girls' dresses were fine; the men a little OTT with bright colours and too many stones for a first week. And what was Mark wearing? Weird!

BIB Why not just start a thread and see how it goes?

I think it's a great idea, & would definitely post on it.

Do they have new designers this year? The standard of frocks was very high. I loved Rachel's and Abbey's from tonight, and Iveta's from last night. But in fact, they were all good.
Anyone remember when ballroom dances were always performed by men in tailcoats? Nice that they can vary it a bit these days.
