- Ever wondered who makes the dresses figure skaters wear at the olympics? Well say no more because this video explains it all.
As a fellow figure skater, one of the best parts about skating are the dresses and sparkles that come along with it.
I am so excited to be joined here today with Mathieu Caron, designer of the costumes of numerous olympians including but not limited to Tessa Virtue & Scott Moir, Shoma Uno, Madison Chock & Evan Bates, Gabriella Papadakis & Guillaume Cizeron and many many more.
Please come along the journey where we get to hear a little about how figure skating costumes are created from the sketch to the actual dress and also follow along the process of Mathieu creating a custom dress for me for my upcoming competitive skating season!
Stay until the end to see the final reveal of my new dress for the 2024 competitive season!
Follow me on Instagram below to see more video/pictures of the dress in action.
Huge shoutout to Mathieu and his whole team: all the designers, seamstresses, pattern makers, colorists/painters, coordinators who made this dress happen- thank you.
Hope you all enjoyed the video and stay tuned for more skating content to come as this season starts!
Thank you again for watching and as always appreciate everyone’s support heart

I absolutely love how the dress turned out!! It’s literally stunning!! I love the green color!! I can’t wait to see it on the ice!! Mathieu’s dresses are so beautiful I really love the snake one he made for Madison chock! 🫶
Totally agree!! Thank you so much!
@@cathydingg of course!
I started skating when I was 7 and stopped at 10. Because I stopped not by my own volition, I kinda just blocked figure skating from my life. So now I'm starting back again, just bought my skates, and I'm starting my adult journey. This video makes me excited to learn and to actually compete with a custom dress. Plus, I live in Montreal, so I can't wait to get to a level where I feel comfortable going to Matthieu.
Thanks for sharing this process! I’m a huge fan of figure skating and dance and have always wanted to know the process of a fully customized costume!
Of course! So glad you enjoyed it and found it helpful!
I cannot explain how excited i am about this video! The dress is beautiful. I am an adult figure skater and have been experimenting with sewing my own/my friends dresses. This video is perfect timing❤
Oh my god that's awesome! Sewing is honestly way harder than it looks. I tried before but turning something from 2-D to a 3-D piece of clothing is truly a challenge I'm still trying to wrap my brain around!
omggg I love it!!! It's gorgeous!! Thanks for showing us the whole process, that was so cool!
Of course! So glad you enjoyed it and found it helpful! (:
GIRL!!! This is so awesome! (Also sus timing, I’m an adult beginner and literally today my coach brought up our spring show and I was like ! I need a dress! (One day I will be good enough for Mathieu, but not yet, haha😅☺️) but this is so inspiring ^-^)
The final dress is STUNINGGGG
And getting to see the behind the scenes was so awesome, it’s really amazing work that everyone does!
You are already good enough as is! There's no skill level requirement to wear a pretty dress (': Thank you for watching and glad you enjoyed it!
What a stunning dress and process! Thank you for sharing and I’m so jealous you got to work with Mathieu Caron 🥹
Thank you so much!!
i just started my adult figure skating journey at 33yrs old, but ive been a seamstress my entire life. in two months ive made 3 figure dresses lol. i need to do less sewing and more skating.
Maybe you found a new side hustle👗
That's incredible!! You're super talented- I wish I could sew haha I would love to make dresses if I could!
Really great video. Thanks for sharing!
This was such a cool idea for a video! Awesome to see the whole process and the visit to the studio. I stalk Mathiieu's Instagrams all the time too haha and have played around with the Iconic designs a few times. I always stone my own dresses, and often find myself wanting a new dress basically for the (very expensive) art project lol!
That's awesome that you stone your own! I may try to learn how to stone one of my dresses as well!
Amazing dress!!! You deserve it girl 💕💕
Thank you so much!!
i got my dress too! it's so pretty its red and white, has rhinestones on it and fits me perfectly. cant wait for my comp, and ur dress is so pretty aswell!
OMG yay! Exciting- I think getting the dress is definitely one of the most exciting parts about competing!
@@cathydingg Yes!!
Who created Yuna's blue dress?
It may be a Korean designer named Ahn Gyu Mi! I believe she's made a couple of Yuna's dresses, not sure about the blue one specifically but she makes a lot of the dresses for the Korean Female skaters! If anyone else knows for sure, please do comment below!
