2024 Olympic uniforms on display at opening ceremony. See what the teams are wearing.
The Paris Olympics are here and with them comes the biggest unofficial fashion show in the sports world. Over one billion viewers will get to see the entire collection of Olympic outfits for the first time during the opening ceremony, which kicked off Friday.
Fans have already gotten a taste of some participating countries‘ uniforms in the preceding weeks, with teams like Mongolia and Haiti stealing the spotlight on social media.
Behind the looks is a fleet of different designers, including well-known sports labels such as Lululemon and fashion brands like Michel & Amazonka, which dreamed up Mongolia’s beloved outfit.
Ralph Lauren once again crafted the opening uniforms for Team USA – navy blazers lined with red-and-white trim paired with jeans, and the closing looks: white moto jackets with matching pants.
Below is a sampling of the show-stopping uniforms Olympic athletes are sporting for this year’s opening ceremony in Paris.
