***Strictly Embargoed Until Monday 16th June 2008***

Four of Britain’s brightest young Olympic and Paralympic hopefuls took a break from their gruelling training schedules and usual sports kit, to collaborate with some of the most iconic British fashion designers – including Vivienne Westwood and Giles Deacon – for a pre-Olympic fashion shoot in the lead up to the Beijing Games.

The four athletes – diver Tom Daley; long distance runner Mo Farah; gymnast Beth Tweddle; and Paralympian equestrian Natasha Baker – were given the opportunity to preview the some of the designers’ bespoke creations and future season collections, and each given unique outfits to model in the photoshoot.
