At London Olympics, Stella McCartney becomes creative director for Team GB

The creative director for Team GB will be Fashion designer Stella McCartney at the London Olympics in 2012.

The 38-year-old will be overseeing the athlete kit for the Games in two years’ time, also the fan wear for the Team GB range by Adidas.

The final time a fashion designer worked with a brand on the kit was 26 years ago in 1984.

Speaking regarding the task ahead of her, she said: As a British fashion designer, it is an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime chance to be creative director of Team GB as the host nation of the London 2012 Olympic Games.

Victoria Pendleton, an Olympic winner, added: ‘I’m a massive fan of Stella McCartney and with London hosting the Olympic Games, it is actually important as the host nation to set the standards.

To have a British designer inputting into the British kit is going to be extremely special.
