VANCOUVER PRESENTS: HALLOWEEN ON ICE

We're used to seeing sequins and sparkles and feathers when figure skaters hit the ice. But what we've seen so far from the Olympic pairs and men's figure skaters is way beyond the flamboyant, over-the-top looks that we've grown to love. Or love to hate is more like it. In fact, thus far it has appeared more like a Halloween Parade than an Olympic skating competition.

A Glam Slam has broken down "the best of the worst" fashions from the pairs and men's competition. And because you will probably look at these costumes and think "Where have I seen that before?" A Glam Slam has also provided the likely inspiration behind each skating fashion. Take a look:

Ukraine's Tatiana Volosozhar & Stanislav Morozov as "The Blue Power Ranger"

 

Russia's Vera Bazarova & Yuri Lariyonov as "The Incredibles"
 
   

 

USA's Evan Lysacek as "Derek Zoolander"

 
  
  

Belguim's Kevin van der Perrer as "A Dancing Skeleton"
 
 
 

Switzerland's Anais Morand & Antoine Dorsaz as "A Burberry Bag"

 
 

Italy's Samuel Contesti as "Farmer Ted"

 

USA's Johnny Weir as "Pink Halloween Barbie"
