Kim Yeji made quite the impression at her Olympics debut. The South Korean sharp-shooter stepped out at the women's 10m air pistol final donning cyborgian shooter glasses and a black track suit, looking somewhat like a sci-fi assassin, and stepped away with a silver medal.

She's one of many athletes bringing style and flair to the tournament - this year, bougie custom nails, relaxed street styles, and personalised hair and makeup trends are all the rage.

Here are some of the athletes serving looks at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
