Hints?

Find out who supplied the unis- Go to the Russian team web sites or go to the Nike, Adidas, Ectonic New Balance sites.

They sponsor teams and may have a site set up to sell products.

DUDE!

I typed in OFFICIAL OLYMPIC APPAREL and got this

I was so about to hug you.... but... I saw that site before ..

no russia nor chinese dress...

the chinese hostess dress (blue and white porcelain) .. was made by like hundrends of people ranging from 60-80 yrs old.. and hand made.. so $$$$$... I just want a replica anyway

....

and I will check those sites to see if any luck about the russian outfit..

thanks anyway... and a hug for trying

Shoot!

Try the Russian Olympic Organizing Committee sites.

Question?

Who was wearing the dresses and where were they worn?

Different companies will sponsor different attire.

The U.S. might have Ralph Lauren do the opening ceremony attire, Nike will do the sweat suits for the medal creemonies and you may get another company to do the outfits/warmups for the athletes in certain sports.

Get as much info about where you saw them and that may help you pin down where you can get them.
------------

If you do find stuff that you like -but there is a chance that you take doing this- wait because the stuff still available will start going down in price as time goes on.

Another idea?

If they were worn at a specific sport check out that sports governing body. It's usually a french
committee, like FIFA or FIVB. They also sign apparel deals with companies.
