From the ugliest to the most stylish, the cheapest to the most innovative, Olympic uniforms have run the gamut – and two Mongolian designers may have come up with the most beautiful attire in Paris. Social media users and Olympians alike have praised the look, with one suggesting the country should be given the gold medal for best outfit “right now”. Designed by Mongolian fashion brand Michel&Amazonka, the country’s 32 athletes will wear the intricate outfits during the Games’ opening and closing ceremonies in the French capital.

Dubbed a “blend of beauty and tradition”, the designs incorporate both Olympic and national symbols including the Nine White Banners, the Olympic torch and the 2024 Olympic emblem. Representations of the sun, moon and the Gua-Maral – a “beautiful doe” in Mongolian mythology – are embroidered with golden thread on the uniforms. “This is what they need at Versace, LV (Louis Vitton) or other big brands,” one social media user said.



Netizens applauded Mongolia for endorsing the stunning uniforms – claiming the design put other nations’ uncreative, uninspiring outfits to shame. Ornate designs will embellish loose-fitting robes, vests and cone-shaped hats featuring 32 stitches, symbolising the unity of the 32 tribes, and Mongolian boots, or “Gutals”, constructed with upturned toes. Women will accessorise with earrings and handbags as well.
