A Colombian women's cycling team uniform is causing quite a stir. As some point out, the garment's light-colored section appears to make the riders look partially nude.
近日,哥伦比亚女子自行车队的队服引起了不小的争议。因为这款队服中间的裸色部分让队员们看起来就像是身体中间裸了一截。
Photos of the uniformed Bogota Humana team riders at the women's Giro Toscana race in Italy this weekend have spread like wildfire across social media, where users were quick to point out the unfortunately placed portion of the uniform, or kit.
本周在意大利举行的女子Giro Toscana自行车比赛上,来自哥伦比亚的Bogota Humana队的队员合照在社交网站上被疯转,网友们很快都注意到了队服中间那截让人无法直视的设计。
In the wake of the social media firestorm, the president of Union Cyclist International (UCI), Brian Cookson, took to Twitter to say the uniform is "unacceptable by any standard of decency" and that the UCI is "on the case."
这场风波发生之后,国际自行车联盟主席布莱恩·库克森很快做出了回应,他在推特上表示这款队服无论以哪种标准判断都是让人无法接受的,并称国际自行车联盟正在调查此事。
According to local media, the kit was designed by one of the team's riders and has been worn in previous races. Only now, after images of the kit appeared on social media, has it been made a topic of debate. Some say the section of the uniform may actually be gold and that the color unfortunately appears lighter in photos.
据当地媒体报道,这套队服是由该队的一名队员设计的,在之前的比赛中也穿过。只是现在,合照被上传至社交网络才引起了轩然大波。有人说队服中间那截其实是金色的,只是不幸在照片中出现色差显得更浅了。
"One of the riders appears to have designed it without the intent on making it look as though they were partially nude," Colombian cycling journalist Klaus Bellon told BBC.
哥伦比亚自行车比赛记者克劳斯·贝龙说:这款队服是由其中一名队员设计的,设计时没有考虑到队服穿在身上时会像是中间裸了一截。
Still, many were not pleased. Former Olympian cyclist Nicole Cooke went so far as to say it's turned cycling into a joke.
即便如此,许多人还是表示不能接受。前奥运会自行车运动员妮科尔·库克也表示这次风波让自行车比赛成为了笑话。
