Gold Medal Fashion? Olympics 2010

Let's talk Olympic Fashion. Because let's face it, fashion is every where. And fans want to know who our Olympians are wearing. This year the clothing worn by the United States Olympic Team has been designed by Ralph Lauren and produced by Nike.

Pictured below are American medalists: Katie Uhlaender (skelton), Chad Hedrick (speed skating), and Angela Ruggiero (women's hockey).

The design of the uniform was inspired by the Lake Placid Games of 1932. The ACG considered waterproof down jacket uses some of the warmest and lightest down filling in the world.

Modern. Casual. Vintage. Warm. Nike and Ralph Lauren team up to make a great uniform for our 2010 Winter Olympic Team.

The opening ceremony uniforms were unveiled by Ralph Lauren on Tuesday. The design features a navy puffer jacket with red stripes, a chunky white turtleneck, white pants and an alpine-style hat with moose, evergreens and American flags.

My favorite outfit...er, uniform...is the closing ceremony. This vintage-inspired modern design features a functional cotton fleece pant, a patriotic navy and red wool shawl cardigan, and a newsboy hat with the team logo.


Opening Ceremony for the Winter Olympic games 2010 are tonight. Will you be tuning in?
