Dior has unveiled an impressive line-up of 15 international female athletes as brand ambassadors for the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
The star-studded list of athletes representing Dior includes Elaine Thompson-Herah, the Jamaican sprinter who holds the title of fastest woman alive with five Olympic gold medals, and Alex Morgan, the US soccer star who has won Olympic gold and two World Cup titles. These extraordinary women embody the spirit of determination, strength and grace that is perfectly in line with Dior’s values.
The brand’s roster of ambassadors also includes pioneers in various sports. Carissa Moore, the Hawaiian surfer who made history by winning the first Olympic gold medal in women’s shortboard surfing at the Tokyo 2020 Games, brings her unique blend of athleticism and style to the Dior family. Emma McKeon, Australia’s most decorated Olympian with an impressive 11 medals, and Japanese fencer Misaki Emura further diversify the group’s talent.
