The uniforms (at least the Opening Cenremony ones) were unvieled this past Tuesday and they aren’t getting good reviews. Designed by Ralph Lauren and Made in China, these uniforms seem to be a disappointment everywhere. “Think “Chariots of Fire” meets American Airlines flight attendant.”
Take a look:
Yikes! I am not a fan of the Big Logo, and really, how boring can you get? And the cost:
The price of all this made-in-China preppiness — if you for some reason want to buy it — $598 for the women’s blazer and $498 for the silk skirt. The men’s blazer is a staggering $795, flat front trousers $295 and nubuck shoes are $165. And that damn beret? $55.
The biggest sins seem to be that these uniforms are made in China and that the berets are – gasp! – foreign. Never mind that your US Army wears berets (at least, some of them do).
What do you think about these uniforms?
