Olympic athletes will soon don their red, white and blue at the Winter Games in Sochi, but ski goggles, skates, and snow suits were nowhere in sight last night. A variety of winter and summer athletes turned out for the Golden Globe Awards. They hit the red carpet in designer fashions, before celebrating at the “Gold Meets Golden” party.

The second annual “Gold Meets Golden” bash brought together the Olympic sporting world and Hollywood stars, in an effort to give a special send-off to the 2014 U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Teams. Celebrities in television and film, who are also Olympic supporters, were in attendance. The occasion was sponsored by The Coca-Cola company, Proctor & Gamble, and Hilton HHonors. For more details on the “Gold Meets Golden” event, visit here.

Below is a breakdown of the athletes who dressed to impress at the 2014 Golden Globes:

Olympic gold medal winning speed skater, Apolo Ohno, posed on the red carpet wearing a classic black tux. He took time to chat with reporters about the night, which he described as “a collaboration of entertainment and athletics.”

Olympic silver medalist and fencer, Tim Morehouse, added some patriotic flair to his Hugo Boss ensemble, thanks to the “Team USA” mittens. Fans can pick up a pair here.
