Olympic gymnast Nastia Liukin may not be competing in the Tokyo Summer Olympics, but her colorful style has been stealing the spotlight as she provides commentary for the sport.
“Everything is thought out, really symbolic and very detailed regarding the colors that she’s wearing,” said Liukin’s fashion stylist, Gabriela Tena, who spoke to WWD from Spain. “We try to do a different color for each look so it’s not all the same color and it’s like a color storyboard almost.” “He was a big mentor to her and they met at the 2008 Olympics,” Tena explained. “She wore purple to honor Kobe and Gigi.”There was also symbolism in the red Dior dress Liukin wore during the women’s gymnastics team competition on July 27. Tena explained Liukin chose to wear red to represent all eight nations competing in the event, as each country’s flag features the hue.
“Since Tokyo is one of the big fashion capitals of the world, we just wanted to experiment with a bunch of different styles and colors,” Tena said. “She doesn’t really experiment as much as we have for the Olympics, so we just wanted to go for it.”
