LVMH-owned menswear brand Berluti unveiled navy wool suits with colored silk lapels for France's Olympic athletes' opening ceremony outfits on Tuesday.
LVMH, a sponsor of the Paris 2024 games, said the "tuxedo-inspired outfit" reflected Berluti's identity, using "noble materials and patina effects" for an elegant, French look.
The jacket lapels have a red and blue motif inspired by the French flag and the brand's signature color-infused patina leather shoes. The women's jackets have cut-away sleeves.
Berluti was founded in Paris in 1895 by a young Italian shoemaker. The French athletes will also wear Berluti trainers or leather loafers.

Estee Lauder said on Monday its long-time CEO Fabrizio Freda had decided to retire from the company at the end of fiscal 2025.

Freda joined Estee in 2008 as president and chief operating officer and was later named the MAC lipstick maker's CEO.

Estee said the board was considering internal and external candidates as part of its CEO succession planning.

Until a successor is appointed, Freda will continue to lead and oversee the company's strategic, financial and investment priorities, Estee said.

Estee has trimmed its global workforce and is trying to shore up its margins as part of a turnaround plan.

The company's results are due later on Monday.
