Default And how will they enforce THIS??

From The C-Score blog:

"In the section where attire is described, leotards now “must be of elegant design” (vs “may be of elegant design” from the previous Code). I predict this will have a particular effect on the Iberian team, which has an inexplicable fondness for fluorescence."

A welcome change, for sure. But how will they enforce it?

haven't you heard? the FIG hired Tim Gun from Project Runway to be a 'style advisor'. He's gonna suggest .5 deductions for tacky leos.

maybe by taking points off from the team that doesn´t obey the rule...

or by treating them to not to let them compete if thye are wearing flouruscence leos(well this would be too harsh).


another question could be....who will be the one to decide wether if the leotard is elegant or not??
Bruno????

different people, different tastes in fashion....while some may think that one leo is awful some other could think its a beautiful leo...

IMO there aren´t many countries right now who really have elegant leotards...
The Russians of course as always have the most elegant leotards imo(well the athens leos were....blah!)....but this year they really had the best leos by far!! they were all really pretty specially the one they wore in the qualies...wow I loved it!!

the USA gilrs as well(well that pink one... boo!!)
(the one they had in athens during TF was absolutely my favorite leo of the last 8 years!! it was gorgeous!!)


I´m just glad that the Romanians aren´t wearing that "colour vomit" leo....it was awful...and they wore it for years!!...

OR, TV viewers could be asked to text their vote for ugliest leotard. The winner gets eliminated.
