So I spent my Friday night watching all three and a half hours of the Olympic Opening Ceremony. Some of it was spectacular, some of it not so. It wasn't a complete waste of my time, though - some of the countries were seriously fashspirational, mixing colours and prints, with beautiful embroidery and embellishment, whilst staying loyal to their country's national dress.
Shame about Team GB's NEXT-designed baco-foil applique tracksuits; let's hope their athletic performance is a little more impressive, eh?
