From Yseult in Dior to Snoop Dogg’s equestrian-chic ensemble, these were the most stylish looks from the Olympic Games

(CNN) — As the Olympic Games in Paris draws to a close, it’s clear there was more on show than world-class sporting prowess. At the closing ceremony on Sunday, LA mayor Karen Bass waved the Olympic flag in a red Sergio Hudson midi dress; while singer Yseult wore a custom Dior black silk faille suit during her headline performance.
Over the last 19 days, celebrities descended on the city, eager to not only watch athletes at the top of their game but to inject a hit of fashion along the way — from Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, who watched the women’s gymnastics dressed in Marni, to Ariana Grande at the opening ceremony wearing Thom Browne. Even Zendaya was pictured in her Parisian hotel room by stylist Law Roach, commemorating the Games in an archival 2008 Olympic ring-themed jumpsuit from Jean-Charles de Castelbajac.
Perhaps it’s no surprise that this Games has felt the most fashion-forward, considering luxury conglomerate LVMH is the official sponsor of the event (a partnership estimated to be worth $166 million). Even the Olympic athletes let their personalities shine through via arty manicures or spray-painted hair.
There were moments of soft political power too, such as the UK’s newly elected Prime Minister Keir Starmer, pictured defiant — and prepared — at the rainy opening ceremony. Sat in a sea of disposable ponchos, Starmer’s Team GB raincoat stood out like a beacon of dependable pragmatism, making fellow Brits feel “insanely patriotic.”
Whether it was foreign dignitaries, Hollywood celebrities or dedicated athletes, brought their sartorial A-game to Paris. Scroll on to see all the chicest moments of the Olympics.
