Burkina Faso
According to Yahoo! Style, Burkina Faso was hands down the best dressed team at the opening night. This West African nation of 17 million people is being represented by five athletes competing in three different sporting events. Yahoo! Style’s editors said of Team Burkina Faso: “It ticked not one, not two, but three of fashion’s favourite tropes – the stripes, the tunic shape, and the street style-worthy hat. And as a bonus, intricate prints and detailing.”
