Um, yes, that IS a lion and a toucan you’re seeing.

3. Catalina Ponor’s Sheer Fierceness

This illusion neckline is giving me J.Lo at the 2000 Grammys, but with even less possibility of a wardrobe malfunction.

Hi yes, I would like to order four of these umbrella suits.

Gems AND a sheer top? This is some Grade-A Dynasty realness.

All the good parts of Hernandez’s look, plus mesh side panels with a geometric motif! *Does the Italian chef finger kissing thing*

Sparkly purple fabric AND a three-quarter sleeve? You go, Tiny Mighty.

11. Lolita Ananasova and Anna Voloshyna’s Nagel-esque Numbers

Like 1980s hair salon art, just all over your torso. Slay, girls.

12. Xuechen Huang and Wenyan Sun’s Fab Faces

The mythical mugs on these suits may mark the closest a mouth has ever gotten to a crotch at the Olympics. The summer ones, at least.

13. Yan Wang’s Milky Wa-haaaaay

This half-sleeve number has the whole sky on it. THE SKY, PEOPLE.

What are those even, soccer balls? I don’t care. I’m not like a regular mom, I’m a cool mom.

18. Alexa Moreno’s Shiny Stunner

Giving serious mermaid vibes… except for the whole two separate legs thing.

19. Natalia Ishchenko and Svetlana Romashina’s Shells ‘n’ Scales

Okay, I take it back — these two were the true Olympic mermaids.

Keep shining, ladies.
