Olympians Who Get a Gold for Wacky Style

The only thing more eye-catching than the swimmer's amazing abs is his dazzling blinged-out grill, which he wore to win the gold in the 2009 World Championships. Fun fact: Ryan sported self-promoting footwear at the same event in 2011.

The soccer pro gets her kicks from playful on-field duds, including carefully coordinated socks and jerseys, plus pink sneakers that complement her fuchsia headband.

The reigning Wimbledon doubles champ is also the queen of over-the-top court costumes, including a belly-baring crisscross mini. And we love that she often rocks complementary nail polish shades.

We're not sure what the Brazilian soccer player's goal is with that funky hairdo, but his home country fans dig his frequently spiked, bleached, Mohawked and all-around wacky styles.

Venus's doubles partner (and Wimbledon singles champ) shares her sister's love for out-there tennis attire (as well as eye-catching off-court style). Whether in Burberry on the red carpet or teeny-tiny shorts during play, she's not shy about showing off that super-toned bod.

In the race for wildest track fashions, Michael takes the lead. The eight-time gold medal winner was not content to just wear the shiny shade around his neck; he had special gilded Nikes custom made for his fast feet in the 1996 Atlanta games.

If Dee Dee slows down long enough for you to catch a glimpse of her, check out the sprinter's glam track outfits and one-of-a-kind face paint. Perhaps she'll sport the Olympic rings in London – or go bold and draw on a winning medal?
