After months – or in actual fact, years – of preparation and anticipation, the Paris 2024 edition of the Olympic Games is at last officially underway, and as expected, it’s proving to be one of the most fashionable sporting spectacles of all time.

The opening ceremony kicked proceedings off in serious style, held along the banks of the Seine and featuring live music from the likes of Lady Gaga and Celine Dion, cameos from some of the biggest stars in the world, dance performances, an epic torch relay, athletes arriving by boat, and a whole lot of fabulous fashion to boot.

But it’s not just the City of Lights that has been showing off its stylish side for the occasion… Each national team taking part in this year’s Olympics has been kitted out in special uniforms that not only serve to bolster their sporting prowess, but display the unique design talent of their home countries too.

These are the most stylish 2024 Olympics team outfits that we’ve spotted so far:

Team Haiti

Whatever the results of the upcoming sporting competitions, Team Haiti has already won gold in our eyes for its glorious Olympics uniform. Created by Haitian-Italian designer Stella Jean, the outfits feature art by local painter Philippe Dodard, blazers made from recycled fabrics and shirts crafted using a traditional weaving technique.

Team Mongolia

‘Pret a couture’ label Michel&Amazonka went viral when its outfits for Team Mongolia were unveiled at the Olympics opening ceremony – and with good reason. Each look took around 20 hours to complete and features intricate embroidery and symbols of cultural significance.
