When it comes to sports with a side of style, there's no place like the Olympics

Of course, the Olympics is the greatest stage when it comes to showing your athletic prowess, but for some competitors, it's also a special moment to make a fashion statement. With all eyes on these stars and their dazzling abilities, there's just as much attention on what they wear to represent their team and their country. 

Naturally, much goes into an Olympic look—there's tradition, nationality, personal style and we can't forget function. After all, these athletes are flipping through the air, moving at incredible speed and essentially defying any notions you had about the limits of gravity.

With the 2020 Tokyo Olympics finally underway, there have been a few more outfits to add to the annals of Olympics fashion history—and we're keeping track of all of them right here.
