Giorgio Armani, the Official Outfitter for the Italian Olympic Team, dressed the athletes for the official Opening Ceremony of the Games of the XXXIII Olympiad, held tonight in Paris. For the first time ever, the athletes paraded along the Seine by boat.

Athletes from multiple disciplines wore a special EA7 Emporio Armani design. The tracksuits, embossed with EA7 and Coni logos, are made of neoprene in Armani blue. The upper features two front zips, a hood with tricolour lining and large pixel-effect ‘Italy’ lettering on the back. The uniform perfectly blends Armani elegance, sporting functionality and national values. The entire first verse of the Italian national anthem, in its original version, is printed inside the jacket over the heart.

Giorgio Armani has previously dressed athletes for the London 2012, Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympics, as well as the Sochi 2014, Pyeongchang 2018 and Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics.

The garments worn by the Italian Olympic team at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games are available from Emporio Armani shops, multi-brand stores and online.
