Berluti will fully outfit the French team for the Opening Ceremonies of the Olympic and Paralympic Games Paris 2024, scheduled for 26 July and 28 August 2024, respectively.
The team kits are designed to embody the modern spirit of French elegance. ‘Following our partnership announcement with Paris 2024 in July, I am delighted to reveal Berluti’s role alongside Maisons like Louis Vuitton and Dior. Our aim is to blend elegance with performance during the Opening Ceremonies. By leveraging Berluti’s passion and stylistic expertise, we want Team France, encompassing both Paralympic and Olympic delegations, to be proud ambassadors of their country, showcasing French elegance and the traditional savoir-faire prized by the Maison,’ stated Antoine Arnault, CEO of Berluti.
