An article in the Wall Street Journal mentioned that while there was plenty of opportunity for fashionistas to make waves at the summer Olympics in Beijing, it wasn't happening.

The author notes that country uniforms fell into one of three categories - colorful national costumes (ie, the bright scrambled egg with tomato colors of the Chinese), flight-attendant flair types suits (nothing wrong with the onesy, right?), and tracksuits (a la The Royal Tenenbaums).
I don't know about you, but I'm okay with this lack of fashion. I know it's not deliberate - the fashion icons just missed their mark this year - but there should still be some places where the human form rules. Especially if the form takes the shape of those guys on the US men's swimming team.
That new Speedo LZR Racer sure looks like a catsuit to me. Meow.
