The Good The Bad And The Ugly

Thank goodness the British Olympic kit for the opening ceremony wasn't designed by Stella McCartney. I may not be a dedicated follower of fashion, but I think she has done very well with the activity wear for the teams and couldn't possibly be responsible for that. She wasn't, it was Next.


Ideal Chav-wear of white with gold patches, they were presumably designed by the Dale Farm branch, in the style of a particularly awful handbag. Only someone from the 'Traveller' community, the big fat Gypsy stylist, a community famous for recycling scrap metal -sometimes stuff you hadn't thought of recycling- and lucky heather, could have put gold armpit patches as a highlight.

Genius is an overworked word, but my God it was taking a rest whilst the British opening ceremony uniforms were being designed. Someone of course accepted the design, but then with the 'fame' of the entirely taste-absent Emin, I'm sure the 'artistic' world has a surfeit of blind judges.
