For the flag bearers, Michel and Amazonka modernised the Deel into a modest and clean-looking long garment, allowing the ornate, gold-thread-stitched collar to stand out. The athletes’ uniforms feature separate tops and bottoms—trousers for men and skirts for women. The standout pieces are the vests, adorned in Mongolia’s national colours: blue, red, and white. Gold thread stitching ties the uniforms to the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, with the Olympic torch symbolically placed at the centre, surrounded by mountains and landscapes that evoke Mongolia’s topography.
Michel and Amazonka Choigaalaa have wowed viewers of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games with Team Mongolia’s parade uniforms. The fashion company MICHELAMAZONKA, led by the creative duo and their sibling and CEO Munkhjargal Choigaalaa, is no stranger to designing for the Olympics. They previously created the Deel-inspired uniforms for Team Mongolia at the Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympics and the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, featuring intricate gold stitching.
For Paris 2024, the designers have introduced a collection with a streetwear flair, including sweaters, gloves, and winter jackets emblazoned with Mongolia’s name. The updated uniforms for athletes and flag bearers blend traditional elements with modern design, capturing the internet’s attention. Designed to be lightweight for Paris’s summer weather, these uniforms are not only functional but also a visual highlight. As a result, viewers' attention might shift from just the sports to the striking appearance of Team Mongolia during the parade.
