Is there anything more unifying than the Olympic games? Yes, cool outfits. Hence, it’s even more unifying-er when the two come together.
This week, Olympians have taken to their own personal Louis Vuitton runways, as their uniforms have started arriving. Obviously, the excitement at receiving your Olympic uniform is hard to top, so various athletes have taken to TikTok to display their new threads. The trend has caught on pretty significantly, giving us normies a snazzy preview of what to expect when the games begin on July 26.
Let us take a look at some of the participants in today’s Olympic runway. Cue music!
First, we have Australian soccer player Mackenzie Arnold using the viral "let's go, I guess" TikTok sound, looking very chic in a lime green getup that really looks like it breathes.
