Stella McCartney did not design the opening ceremony outfits

Stella McCartney did not design the outfits worn by Team GB at the opening ceremony. The white and gold tracksuits were created by high street label Next, which became a subject of controversy over the weekend. Twitter users compared them to Elvis costumes. 

"To clarify, Stella designed the Team GB performance kit, podium suit & villagewear, not the Olympic ceremony suits," the label Tweeted on Friday.
