Okay.... I get it, some of them want above all to look manly, but they could at least try and look young and sharp and sexy manly and not drab and daggy manly (including the eyewatering Failed PseudWoodstock Wannabe look that seems to be gaining strength, I can only imagine 'cause it's as cheap as it looks, guys? At least the ever-popular Office Worker Outfits look as if they were fished out of Great-Uncle's wardrobe and not his rag bin). Anyway...

1. Yuzuru Hanyu, FS - I freely admit, I love the black and gold from last year better but the dark wizard glitter ensured he was the absolute cynosure yet again (and it's a pity that only competitions count, or the ice show Masquerade would romp it. Fact.)
2. Junhwan Chan, FS - there's something about it that makes me think of Ivory films or period Shakespeare theatre: very soft and soulful. He's honestly a beautiful young man (you can't deny it), and this periodesque look does wonders for reminding us of this, softly but undoubtedly.
3. Yuzuru Hanyu, SP - of course I'm biased. On the other hand, I do prefer it to last year's Otonal, he's also beautiful, and anything like this showcases it.
4. Han Yan, SP - 99.9999% of the guys who wear white shirt/black pants look like they lost their luggage in transit. Han's subtly interesting shirt makes him look cool and stylish instead.
5. Nam Nguyen, FS - sharp 60s mod to a tee, such fun.

I concur with Daisuke Takahashi, SP, Japan Nationals.

In fact, I think he should be eligible for a lifetime achievement award!

1 - Yuzuru Hanyu FS (Origin) - I love the colour, love how it's inspired from Nijinsky's Spectre Ć  la Rose costume. Love the details.... Everything really.
2 - Daisuke Takahashi SP Japan Nats - just wow
3 - Junhwan Cha SP - unpopular opinion? I really don't like his FS costume. His SP one? 10/10, black lace/red is always a winning combo.
4 - Keiji Tanaka SP (4CC? the long sleeves version) - this is a beautiful shirt
5 - Matteo Rizzo SP - that mustard turtleneck :biggrin:

I've thought about this but frankly there wasn't a single male costume in singles that I remember in a positive light. Not one. Serviceable yes. Memorable? Apparently not.
