Any loose clothing will provide additional air resistance so speed skaters - and many other athletes trying to minimize drag and maximize their speed - will wear form-fitting clothing.
I am a frigure skater and I love it and have a costume. I wear a costume because they are pretty, and show that you are really into it. You don't have to have one but it makes you have more confidence. It shows that you are really good and dedicated.
Traditional:
Ladies (singles/pairs)- a dress, about mid-thigh length.
Men (singles/pairs)- usually pants and a shirt tucked in, but some choose to wear a full bodysuit
Ice Dance- Girls- a dress, length is longer than the singles dress; Men- basically the same as the singles/pairs
Every time there is a serious fall or injury in figure skating that is widely seen or reported, the topic of whether skaters in competition should wear helmets comes up. It seems very unlikely that the International Skating Union will ever require helmets, for almost exclusively aesthetic reasons.
so they can move more swifter on the ice and more elegance.
so they cannot trip up or get hurt.

It depends on whether or not you are skating dance or singles and pairs. Dance girls wear a dress that has a longer skirt in the back, the top can be anything, full bodied, skimpy, or whatever the designer has in mind. For a singles or pairs girl, they wear a shorter skirt that is very jumping, spinning friendly, making it easier for them to skate.
