With some of the world's top designers getting involved in the Games, viewers can look forward to one giant fashion show!</P><P>Designers such as Ralph Lauren, Gucci and Alexander McQueen are taking advantage of the opportunity to establish a connection with the sports world and build brand recognition, and are using the Games as an outlet to showcase their work to billions.</P><P>As the official outfitter of the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic teams, Ralph Lauren will have a greater presence at the Games than any other designer. Members of the U.S. teams will wear apparel from his collection during the opening and closing ceremonies. The opening-ceremony outfits are reminiscent of the classics reflected in the 1920s and '30s, while the closing ceremony outfits have a much sportier feel and edge.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://myitthings.com/TheSweetestThing/Post/fashion/It_Designer/Style_Watch_at_the_2008_Olympics/92852008201738646.htm"><div align="center"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/myitthings.com/img/C1575827-38DE-4401-A285-765E35D5D2C6" alt="" /></div></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/3A086AEA-F138-4980-A0A3-B5295E78F03B/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
