Beijing 2008: Australia’s Olympic Uniform

We got a lot of hits blogging about Canada’s Olympic uniform so let’s blog about the outfits of the other Olympic teams. Maybe we should stick to Olympic fashion if that’s what it takes to be world famous? Joke joke.

Anyways, here’s the uniform of Australia’s Olympic team which was unveiled last February. For some reason, this set of uniform reminds me of Leonardo Caprio’s “Catch Me If You Can”; you know, that movie where Leonardo’s a pilot (or a pretend pilot) running away from authorities.

Apparently, I’m not the only one who thinks that this set of uniform is kinda like the stuff that flight attendants wear. Patty Huntington thinks so too. Great minds think alike, eh Patty?

See, the girls even run like the girls in the di Caprio movie.

Fortunately, the other set of uniform below — which seems to be what the athletes will wear during their practice sessions and the competition — looks appropriately more “Olympian”.

So that’s the uniform of our friends from Australia. If you want to see what other athletes are wearing click the following links: New Zealand Olympic uniform and Canada Olympic uniform.
