I didn't follow the debate on the Chinese OG delegation outfit. Personally I don't find anything wrong with it. Are people advocating for straight up hanfu type outfit to be worn? Cuz that's very impractical and will actually affect their preparations and eventual performance.
In the past Chinese design team incorporated elements of chinese culture to the jacket like clouds and dragons arts etc. I find them quite aesthetically pleasing. But these clothes should above all else be comfy and practical for maximum effect on sports performance.
It is not about the actual sports wear but the delegation's official representative attire.
Tokyo Olympic style official attire as reference, I even prefer the 2020 Tyoko version more because of the flowery accent for the female dress.
Red Suit and white pants just looks like Wendy's or McDonalds Manager kind of fit. Not saying the colour dont match, but in this specific case, especially with the given fabric and design style, it doesnt.
And then the whole shenanigangs why the fuck *CHINESE* wear clearly western style suits when you have literally styles like this in China available.
The performative sports wear actually looks good.
