Olympic Coverage In Style

Bigger and better-two words to describe what could be seen at the XX Olympic Games held in Torino, Italy, February 10-26, 2006.

With a population of over one million, Torino is the largest city to host any Olympic Winter Games.
Located in the northwest region of Italy, the area lets spectators immerse themselves in the Italian culture and experience the unique attributes of the Alpine Valleys, while taking in such sports as cross-country skiing, figure skating, ice hockey, snowboarding and ski jumping. NBC offered more live coverage than any Winter Olympic broadcast in history.

Mary Carillo, host of USA Network's "Olympic Ice," figure skating broadcasters Sandra Bezic and Andrea Joyce, and women's hockey studio analyst and Olympic hockey gold medallist Cammi Granato kept in style during the Torino Games with the help of Liz Claiborne's contemporary and versatile clothes.
