Only a few days to go until the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. And for several months now, brands have been unveiling the outfits for the opening and closing ceremonies, the looks designed according to the specificities of the disciplines and the silhouettes that will accompany the athletes and teams throughout the global event.
From 26 July to 11 August, the whole world will be vibrating to the rhythm of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. As a guarantee of increased visibility and a demonstration of know-how, being a partner of the Olympic Games is a must for brands, from the most sporty to the most luxury. Some previous looks have already gone down in the annals of the event, sublimating the athletes and teams in general and deserving a fashion gold medal.
