The best looks worn by athletes and other stars at LVMH's pre-Olympics event

• LVMH hosted a pre-Olympics party on Thursday called Prelude to The Olympics.
• Many athletes, stars, designers, and influencers attended.

Before the 2024 Olympics officially kicked off in Paris on July 26, fashion conglomerate LVMH — alongside Anna Wintour, Pharrell, and Rosalía — hosted a party for all the A-listers in town.

The influence of LVMH, which owns brands like Louis Vuitton, Dior, Fendi, Loewe, and Stella McCartney, will likely be felt across this year's Olympics. The French conglomerate, overseen by billionaire Bernard Arnault, is believed to have spent $160 million to sponsor the games, Business Insider previously reported. As a result, LVMH has had a hand in everything from uniforms to the design of the medals.

At its "Prelude to The Olympics" event on Thursday, mega-stars like Serena Williams, LeBron James, Zendaya, and Shaun White were on hand to kick off the festivities at the Fondation Louis Vuitton, an art museum owned by LVMH.

Here are some of the best looks of the evening.
