With only 100 days to go, the Olympic fashion unveil is picking up steam. First Australia revealed its opening ceremony looks at the end of last month — a green and white seersucker blazer and white shorts or skort. Canada followed suit a few wees ago with a maple-leaf-bedecked blazer a few weeks ago. And on Wednesday, just hours after team Great Britain showed off its Stella McCartney competition gear and team USA debuted its Polo Ralph Lauren closing ceremony style, France stepped up to the podium.
The designer in their spotlight is Felipe Oliveira Baptista, creative director of Lacoste, who was in charge of the opening ceremony, podium and Olympic Village outfits for the French team and Paralympic team.
