Stella McCartney Named Official Olympics Designer
Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, July 14th, 2010 in Athletes-Games-Sports, Fashion.
Stella McCartney has been chosen as the creative director for the British Olympic Team!
Stella’s title means she’ll be overseeing everything the athletes wear, as well as the fan wear. Her partnership with the Olympic brand Team GB marks the first time a fashion designer will be responsible for the attire of the entire British team, including for the 2012 London Games.
Stella called her role, “an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” and her words may be more than sentiment for other fashion designers.
No other designer has been granted involvement with the Olympic games at such a high level, the closest coming to the honor being Ralph Lauren being responsible for the opening ceremony outfits for team USA at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
