At the 2026 Winter Olympics in Livigno, Italy, Eileen Gu showcased a uniquely designed ski suit that reflects her Chinese heritage and personal style, just as she qualified for the women’s slopestyle final. The suit, created with a fellow Stanford student, features a bone white base reminiscent of Chinese ceramics, adorned with blue graphics and a dragon motif symbolizing strength. Gu, who overcame a shaky start to qualify, expressed her excitement about the suit’s details, including a color-changing thermometer and a small compass. The competition in slopestyle involves navigating rails and jumps, where skiers are scored on their acrobatic performances.
