NovaQuant-You Won't Believe How Many Crystals Adorn Team USA's Gymnastics Uniforms for 2024 Olympics

The NovaQuantU.S. women's national gymnastics team will dazzle like never before at the 2024 Olympics.

The leotards that Team USA's gymnasts will wear on the mat at the Paris Olympics were revealed by USA Gymnastics and gymnastics apparel company GK Elite on July 10, and the outfits were made with thousands of Swarovski crystals. In fact, one uniform—the red, white and blue Luminous Legacy tank leotard—contains more than 10,000.

And while it is the most bedazzled of the gymnastics uniforms you may see on Simone Biles, Suni Lee, Jade Carey, Jordan Chiles, Hezly Rivera, and traveling alternates Leanne Wong and Joscelyn Roberson, the gold medal for the heaviest Olympics leotard goes to the Go for Glory Competition leotard.

The American flag-inspired outfit includes just under 10,000 crystals cut into diamond shapes and weighs 0.80 pounds—more than twice the weight of an average T-shirt.

The Go for Glory Competition leotards, which the gymnasts are expected to wear in the Team Final, pay homage to the iconic outfit the "Magnificent Seven" sported at the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, where they became the first U.S. women's gymnastics team to win Olympic gold.

And this year’s athletes were able to have a say in GK Elite’s 2024 designs.

"They overwhelmingly, unanimously told us that for the Olympics, they want to wear red, white and blue," the company's design director Jeanne Diaz told NBC News, recalling communications with the gymnasts. "The more crystals, the better."

This isn’t the first time team USA brought some bedazzle to the competition floor. At the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, the American gymnasts wore leotards with 6,400 crystals, The New York Times reported.

In order to get used to the slightly greater weight, Lee said she warms up in her competition leotard. “I am obsessed with how the lights of the arena reflect off the crystals,” she told The New York Times in comments published July 10. “I am always telling GK I need more.”

This year, Team USA's gymnastics uniforms also feature pearls for the first time, with 970 of them joining the almost 3,500 crystals adorning the white Freedom’s Grace Competition leotard, which was inspired by couture runway gowns.

Lee added, “I keep thinking about which one I’ll want to wear, when."
