Physical description
It is a pair of loafers that belong to a costume worn during the opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games, more precisely during the "My ability" painting. Thousands of Paralympic athletes from the 168 delegations present marched up the Champs-Elysée to stroll through the Place de la Concorde, in the middle of 65,000 spectators. Four stages served as unique performance venues, forming a colorful visual show at the foot of the obelisk. From the French singer Lucky Love to the South African dancer Musa Motha and the artist Christine and the Queens, all gathered in honour of Paralympism.
Notes
These are a pair of black loafers from the Geox brand worn by Orel at the Opening Ceremony of the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games.
