Rio Olympics: best and worst dressed national teams

accreditation
I absolutely loved Brazil's team look. I call it, Tropical Safari. The energy exuded by this team was electric.
The South African team opted for retro yellow and green tracksuits, which let's face it, is so '90s. With so many brilliant SA designers one can only wonder why SASCOC decided on plain tracksuits. Disappointing.
Australia's female athletes resembled air hostesses in this blue and crisp white pairing. The neck scarf sealed the deal.
This might be the worst of them all. Germany was sad in a leggings and skirt ensemble. Never a good look.
Strapping Czech Republican boys.
Love the canary yellow ties Kazakhstan.
Japan classic in red blazers and white pants.
USA sharply dressed in Ralph Lauren.
Spain opted for Panama hats and vibrant primary colours.
Great Britain kept it classic. But I'm not quite sure about those white shorts, though.
Love, love, love team Uruguay's colour palette. Very Wes Anderson.
Ukraine opted for peek-a-boo midi-length skirts, which frankly, doesn't flatter most.
