Team USA’s parade uniform, designed by fashion house Ralph Lauren for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, was unveiled on Thursday, prompting waves of disapproval from social-media critics for its patchwork woolen cardigan of stars and stripes.
Lauren said the uniform was made in the United States, but critics deemed them tacky and old-fashioned. “Team USA will be dressed like your rich aunt at Olympics,” posted @Rio2016 on Twitter. “It was so nice that Ralph Lauren’s grandmother volunteered to knit all the Team USA sweaters herself,” tweeted @My_Lo.
