Costumes

The costume committee will be reaching out to individual skaters if they still have costumes/items to pick up.  If alternation are still being completed on your costume they will also reach out to you once your costume is ready for pick up.

Hairstyles & accessory guidelines will be sent out closer to the week of show.

Measurements, Fittings, Hairstyles, and More

HAIRSTYLE GUIDELINES – Will be posted closer to the show dates.

MAKE-UP & TIGHTS GUIDELINES:
Foundation/powder – Your choice.
Blush – Any rosy/pink shade. Stay away from corals.
Lipstick – Reds work the best and show up on the ice.
Eyeliner – Dark brown or black.
Mascara – Dark brown or black.
Eyeshadow – Browns are the best. Stay away from blues/pinks/purples. The deeper browns show up better on the ice.
Tights –  Nude in boot, no crystals (unless your costume has leggings/pants).

Skaters should follow these guidelines for both dress rehearsals and all Shows.

INITIAL MEASUREMENTS – All skaters enter their measurements during registration. More information can be found HERE.

COSTUME FITTINGS – Fittings start in February and continue until Show week.

  • You may have to attend additional fittings if your costume requires alterations after the initial fitting. Please be patient as our seamstresses and costume committee works tirelessly to get it all done!
  • Costumes are not designed to serve the purpose/function of a competition dress/outfit.
  • Costumes are ordered with the vision of dedicated seamstresses, show directors and Showtime on Ice committee members.
  • Costumes are to be worn as directed by the costume committee. This includes all accessories and wigs.
  • Costumes may not be altered in any manner. Skaters may not add accessories, wear different tights or personal boot covers as part of their costume.  The only exception will be a body leotard or gloves if they match the skin tone of the skater.
  • If a skater chooses to not wear any part of their costume when asked, for dress rehearsal and/or a performance the Directors and SOI Committee will follow the SOI code of conduct/behavior disciplinary consequences and process.

COSTUME CARE – Once you have your costume, take good care of it! We will not have replacement costumes or accessories. Keep everything together and safe until dress rehearsals and show weekend. You will have to take your costume home with you after dress rehearsals and each performance. Please make sure that you have all costumes and accessories accounted for before you leave. We will offer black garment bags with SOI logo to purchase for $10.

WHEN TO WEAR – Only wear your costume to the two dress rehearsals during show week and all show performances.

LEOTARDS – If you have a younger skater we recommend getting them a skin tone leotard to wear under their costume. This will help keep them warm. The leotard type will depend on the type of costume you have.
