ALARYAN DAILY: Germanier's 'Golden Voyager' Takes Center Stage at Paris 2024 Olympics
In a dazzling display of fashion and athleticism, designs from French label Germanier made their mark on the world stage this summer during the Opening and Closing Ceremonies of the Olympic Games in Paris. The house, known for its avant-garde style, showcased stunning costumes that wowed audiences globally.
A particular highlight was the otherworldly "Golden Voyager" ensemble, which has since joined the Olympic Museum's collections as a testament to fashion's enduring legacy at the games. The eye-catching design took center stage, setting the tone for a spectacular viewing of fashion and sport.
Other French brands lent their expertise to the fashion extravaganza, with Lacoste presenting its first-ever vintage collection curated from its archives in history. This move underscored the brand's commitment to showcasing timeless elegance and style.
Celebrity visitors included Swiss Olympians Léa Sprünger, Maëline Triponez, and Kim Métraux, rower Nicolas Chambers, and Paralympian Sofia Gonzalez, all who dazzled on the catwalk alongside a diverse range of models. The presence of athletes highlighted the seamless fusion of sport and style that defined the event.
In recognition of the "Fashion and Sport" exhibition, which also celebrated the Olympic Museum's grand reopening in an 800sq.m temporary space, Thomas Bach, President of the International Olympic Committee, was joined by Olympic Museum officials, Bénédicte Gady, Interim Director of MAD Paris, Yasmin Meichtry, Associate Director of the Olympic Museum, and exhibition curator Sophie Lemahieu. Their official ribbon-cutting marked a fitting conclusion to this unprecedented moment in fashion history.
The "Fashion and Sport" exhibition promises an immersive experience that invites visitors to explore the intersection of high-speed athletics, cutting-edge style, and legacy of international sportsmanship – an ultimate tribute to athleticism that transcends borders and generations.
