The
London 2012 kit British sportsmen and women will be hoping to wear at the
Olympics has been unveiled today
A ‘stella’ line-up of gold medal hopefuls, including Chris Hoy,
Victoria Pendleton, Andy Murray and Jessica Ennis (pictured below) took a
break from their busy training schedules to unveil
the Adidas kit which has been designed by Stella McCartney. No
stranger to sportswear design, having produced a series of collections for
Adidas, Stella McCartney has become the first fashion designer to put her stamp
on an Olympic kit.

Speaking
about the design process, Stella revealed: ‘The first place to start on a project like this is to look at the
Union flag. For me, it’s one of the most beautiful flags in the world and it
was important for me to stay true to that iconic design but also to modernise
it and present it in a contemporary way.’
Using
different shades of blue to build up a stylised representation of the Union
flag the kit has already been criticised in the media for being too, well blue
- but do you think it’s a winning look?
