Ralph Lauren, the official outfitter of Team USA for the Olympic and Paralympic games, has released this year's looks for the opening and closing ceremonies in Paris.

At the opening ceremony of the games, set to be held with boats ferrying athletes down the River Seine, athletes will be sporting a preppy look.

Athletes will be wearing a navy wool blazer with red and white tipping with the company's pony logo on the left side and the Team USA Olympic logo on the right side.


Underneath the blazers will be a blue striped Oxford shirt - with the whole ensemble paired with jeans and a suede buck shoe on the bottom. 

Male athletes will be wearing a dark blue knitted tie while female athletes will be wearing an open collar look without any neckwear.

As for the closing ceremony's uniforms, they'll be much sportier and inspired by motorsport attire.

Athletes at the games will wear a racing-style jacket covered in various Team USA logos - as well as the icon of the sports that each person participates in.

In addition to the jackets, the team will wear white denim jeans with 'Team USA' printed down one side - as well as a Team USA belt, a polo shirt, and a baseball hat.

In a press release, Ralph Lauren says this collection is American inspired, but that it also 'draws inspiration from the dynamic and vibrant host city of Paris.'

The fashion brand also says the uniforms 'embody the spirit and pride of Team USA' while serving also 'as a symbol of unity and inspiration for both our team and the millions of fans who will be cheering them on.' 

This is the ninth time that Ralph Lauren is designing the looks for Team USA at the opening and closing ceremony parades.

While Ralph Lauren has the opening and closing ceremony looks covered, any medal ceremony attire will be taken care of by Nike.
