I had to take a look at what other countries' athletes will be wearing at the Olympics, and I'm seeing an emphasis on women in skirts across the board (world?). Perhaps a designer conspiracy? There seems to be a preference for the spiffy blazer look as well (The US team uniform makes me think of yachts and cocktails). Here are some of the other Olympic uniforms I've found:
Australia: perfect attire for the PGA tour!
Korea: They get my award for the most unisex uniforms. So what separates the men from the women? Argyle socks, of course! And EVERYONE gets a purse!
New Zealand: Um, wow. Really?!
United Kingdom: They get my award for Best Dressed Lawyers.
Jamaica: By far my favorite uniform. They look like super heros, which is, I would think, how Olympic athletes should look. And don't look for the corporate designer names here. The uniforms were created by Cedella Marley...that's right, Bob Marley's daughter. How cool is that??
