Haiti's delegation will impress the world during the Opening Ceremony parade this Friday, July 26, 2024, with their uniforms designed (for free) by the famous Haitian-Italian designer Stella Jean in collaboration with the renowned Haitian painter Philippe Dodard.

Ranked by Forbes Magazine, among the 10 most stylish delegations for the Opening Ceremony and in 3rd position of the Top 10 most beautiful uniforms on the official website of the 2024 Olympic Games, Haiti's costumes are true works of art that stand out for their symbolism.

The Haitian delegation's uniforms were chosen by the International Olympic Committee to enter the permanent exhibition of the Olympic Games Museum in Lausanne (Switzerland).

The female athletes will wear a full skirt highlighting Dodard's work, with light blue chambray shirts, made from the traditional Haitian "blue cotton", as well as sleeveless jackets made from recycled fabric. Male athletes will wear striped shirts, printed scarves and jackets inspired by traditional shirts (Guayabera). Their pants will also feature Dodard's work.
