進入《中英對照讀新聞》D&G snub China "sandwiches", praise Kazakh hats D&G冷眼看待中國「三明治」，盛讚哈薩克時髦氈帽
◎俞智敏
Kazakhstan came to the Winter Olympics with few hopes of winning a medal but they have already scooped one of the highest accolades in Italy.
當哈薩克隊來到本屆（義大利杜林）冬季奧運時，並未期待會贏得任何獎牌，不過他們已經搶先抱走了義大利一項最高榮譽。
Top fashion designers Dolce & Gabbana voted the Kazakhs the most stylish team to parade at the Olympics opening ceremony and said they would happily cast them on their catwalk.
頂尖時尚設計師 Dolce & Gabbana選出哈薩克隊為本屆冬季奧運開幕儀式中穿著最時髦的國家代表隊，並說很樂意邀請哈薩克隊參加走秀。
"We would hire the athletes from Kazakhstan in a second, so stylish in their black coats and Borsalino hats, so Dolce & Gabbana," the designers wrote in Italian daily La Stampa.
「我們會立刻聘請哈薩克隊運動員，他們的黑色外套和博薩利諾帽非常漂亮，非常有Dolce & Gabbana的風格，」這兩位設計師在義大利LaStampa日報中寫道。
The French were fanciest, although "a little too perfectly tailored", the Russians looked "all Christmas in white jackets that somehow managed to make them look slimmer and taller", and the Italians were, of course, "glamorous".
法國隊穿得最花俏，雖然「有點剪裁太過完美了」，俄羅斯隊「穿著白色長外套看起來極富耶誕氣息，也讓他們看起來更瘦、更高」，義大利隊當然是「最有魅力」的一隊。
So who were the losers？
"The Chinese wore the kitschiest, clad in long down jackets that made them look like sandwiches and even shorter than they already are," Dolce & Gabbana wrote.
那麼哪些隊是輸家呢？
Dolce & Gabbana寫道︰「中國隊的打扮最庸俗，羽絨長外套讓隊員們看起來活像三明治，而且比原本看起來更矮。」
The Germans' tangerine and lime outfits were dubbed an "overdose of vitamin C", the Danes' hats were likened to horrible "waffles" and the Americans' "flabby berets…looked like upside down underwear".
德國隊的橘子與萊姆色制服則被譏為「維他命C 過量」，丹麥隊的帽子被形容為可怕的「鬆餅」，美國隊頭戴「軟趴趴的貝雷帽…看來像上下顛倒的內衣」。
