THE 2014 WINTER Olympic Games have been making waves on the internet this week, but not for the reasons you might expect.
The teams taking part have been revealing what they’ll be wearing in Sochi, Russia, and the world can’t help wondering if they’re intentionally committing crimes against fashion?

They’re quite frankly hypnotic and if we didn’t know better we’d swear they were just trying to blind the competition.
Team USA will be wrapped up to the nines in a rather divisive Ralph Lauren get up for the Opening Ceremony.

They’re quite frankly hypnotic and if we didn’t know better we’d swear they were just trying to blind the competition.
The internet can forgive the lads though because wearing terrific trousers is actually their thing and they pull off the look with relative ease.
If only the same could be said for this lot.
