It’s a long old walk around the stadium, and there are a lot of countries and a lot of athletes taking part. Here are a selection of some (yes, that’s right – my first and probably only fashion post).

Mexico had just about the best outfits, ever.

Germany, with their helpful gender colouring.
America looking very smart and dapper.

Ireland likely had the biggest cheer per athlete.

The Canadian army of red and white, with extra labelling in case you’re unsure.

I don’t remember where these guys were from, but I like their outfit all the same.And finally, after an explosion of sparkly bits, the spacesuit wearing British.
