These Olympic team uniforms are blending sports and style with their nations' culture and artistry.

As one of the most influential fashion destinations in the world, we're not surprised that designer brands are going all out to leave an impression at this year's biggest stage - the Paris 2024 Olympics.

With all eyes on the games, fashion labels worldwide are styling their country's Olympic athletes and national team uniforms for a chance to showcase what they've got, and so far most of them have not disappointed.

We take a look at the most stylish athlete uniforms for the Paris 2024 Olympics.

1. Team Mongolia, by Michel & Amazonka

Sister duo couture label, Michel & Amazonka, unveiled Team Mongolia's Olympic uniform designs for the Paris 2024 games.

The viral social media video stunned netizens worldwide, and if the Olympics had a Best-Dressed-Athletes category, Mongolia would've won gold this year.

It's a gorgeous take on traditional Mongolian wear, a calf-length gown that usually sports a high collar and long sleeves. The uniforms will be worn for male and female flag bearers and athletes, with the outfits incorporating colours of the Mongolian flag and the Soyombo, a national symbol found on the nation's banner.

2. Team Haiti, by Stella Jean

The Haitian team's incredibly stylish Olympic ceremony uniforms are a vibrant message about the nation and its long traditions.

Designer Stella Jean said that Team Haiti "will be the first good news coming out of Haiti in at least the last three years", with the young athletes bringing a positive perspective away from the frequent news of politics, poverty, or natural disasters in the country.

"So, I felt the responsibility to say as much as I can about the country," she added.

Jean collaborated with Haitian artist Philippe Dodard, whose brightly hued paintings are incorporated into the team's Olympic uniforms - colourful skirts for women and vibrant pants for men, paired with traditional Haitian chambray shirt. Not only are the designs gorgeous, but they're also sustainably made from leftover fabric.

According to Jean, recycling leftover materials into new garments is not just a trend. In Haiti, it's both part of the culture and a necessity.

Referring to the Haitian team as their "ambassadors" at the Paris 2024 Olympic , Jean commented that the athletes "all know, even if they are very, very young, how important their presence is - and that it’s not just about performance. They know their bodies are a flag."

3. Team Canada, by Lululemon

Homegrown Canadian sportswear label Lululemon is bringing adaptability and inclusivity to the country's Olympic team for Paris 2024.

Team Canada's uniforms feature local architecture, art, and nature - in a deep rich red that pays homage to the country's iconic maple leaf flag. Keeping in mind the athletes' comfort amidst Paris' sweltering summer heat, Lululemon designed the outfits to feature ventilation and wicking.

The designers also took into consideration the team's unique needs for training, movement, and accessibility.

For the closing ceremony, fans and netizens can look forward to Team USA dressed in white jeans paired with matching jackets adorned in the national flag's colours of red, white, and blue.

Filipino fashion powerhouse Francis Libiran will be dressing Team Philippines in an understated yet stylish traditional barong shirt with a detachable silk sling in the flag's colours and symbol, representing bravery and national pride. The sling's design is inspired by the tattoo patterns of the majestic Pintados Tribe, as well as the sun's shining rays.

The ceremonial outfit is a wonderful blend of the South East Asian country's pre-colonial roots and its Spanish history.

10. Team India, by Tarun Tahiliani

Couture designer Tarun Tahiliani heads the creativity behind Team India's traditional-inspired uniforms and its clean blend of the national flag's colours and motif. For the ladies, the opening and closing ceremony sari incorporates the Indian flag's vibrant hues of saffron, white and green.

The gents will don a traditional kurta, perfect for the balmy Parisian summer, paired with a bundi - a traditional sleeveless jacket. Much like the sportswomen's wear, the men's outfits will feature the country's iconic tricolours.

While the ceremonial kit received mixed reactions online, with many calling it a "lacklustre" representation of India's typically imaginative sense of style and tailoring, some have defended the outfits with hopes that the collection will look better when worn during the event.
