Fashion Notes from the Olympics

National teams of athletes entered BC Place in alphabetical order for the opening ceremonies of the 2010 Winter Olympics.  This meant that the fashion highlight of the evening came early.  We refer, of course, to the multi-colored floral print trousers worn by the pride of Azerbaijan.

We note that Ralph Lauren's designs for the US team may be purchased by the rest of us, even if we compete only in the Indoor Chug-a-Lug. But, our eyes are on other Olympic outfits, beginning with Garou's black, double-breasted, Edwardian coat.  And Bobby Orr's perfectly knotted silk four-in-hand.  And how about Donald Sutherland's all-white ensemble (with cleverly matching beard and coiffure)?

Or, we'd settle for k.d. lang's white tuxedo.  Shoes optional.
