The 27-year-old, who withdrew from the 2020 Tokyo Olympics after suffering a bout of the “twisties” (disorientation gymnasts suffer from whilst airborne), came back in full force at the City of Light’s Bercy Arena on Sunday.
If you’re inspired by the sparkling costumes showcased at the Paris Olympics: here’s how to integrate the style into your summer swimwear.
All that glitters
To make a strong but subtle statement, opting for glitter threaded textiles are a great way to incorporate sparkle into an otherwise basic piece.

Daring diamanté
If swimwear usually leaves you feeling a little exposed, this crystal trend adds a layer of glittering armour, making the costume the star of the show.

Melted metallics
Slip back to the Eighties with wet-look metallics. Having made a mighty comeback last year spurred on by Kardashians and micro-influencers alike, gleaming metallics make as big a statement as their heyday’s silhouette.
A cut that shaped a generation, the high-waisted, hip-bone-grazing suits of the Eighties saturate our swimwear options today.
