Kevin van der Perren. Current World Ranking: #15
Short Program: Night on Bald Mountain by Modest Mussorgski
Despite the fact that we run a figure skating fashion blog, we both believe that if viewers remember your costume more than your skating, you're doing it wrong. Not only is this costume one of the most heavily criticized costumes of this season, it distracts from the fact that Kevin van der Perren is actually a good skater. Bee almost died watching his 4T+3T+3T in his free skate at Worlds and yet when prompted to talk about KVDP, the first thing that comes to mind is this costume. Costumes should enhance the skating, not overwhelm it. Bottom line, you're a figure skater, not a Cinco de Mayo decoration.
