Kristy
de Jong
Designer & Owner
Figure Skating Fashions was born in a closet many years ago! It was literally the only place to set up my machines and so began the creative design process and my passion for clothing figure skaters!
I started out focusing on my daughter's skating dresses then turned my attention to my youngest son's skating outfits, occasionally I created dresses for their fellow skaters. Soon, it developed into a passion for creating unique designs to share with others.
​
My creative pursuits have included theatre set design, event planning, venue decor, theatre costuming, wedding and graduation dress design, ice show costumes, and custom skating pieces.
​
I listen to program music, take note of fashion trends, colour pallets, beautiful cuts of fabrics, listen to the needs of the skater/coach/choreographer, compile it all together and create unique pieces that will allow skaters to bring their performance to life!
