Bark From The Park, Another Olympic Laugh!

The London 2012 Olympic Games Takes on Star Trek.

The London 2012 Olympic Games Takes on Star Trek.

Futuristic ceremonial costumes are to be worn by Olympic escorts and medal bearers. The male medal bearers get to wear purple suits which are more beam me up Stratford than Saville Row. The Olympic escorts in turn look like they work for a cheap budget airline with hat masquerading as a midget spaceship. These hideous Star-Trek creations make me feel I need to increase boost to warp factor 10 and jet on out of here. Who ever thought these up have definitely, boldly gone to where no fashion designer has gone before. While Captain Kirk and crew could rely on Scotty to beam them up in sticky situations, there will no escape from the chaps and gals in their garish garb this summer. Nevermind at the end of the Olympics they can hop over to a Star-Trek convention without needing to change clothes. Enterprising, it’s certainly not , set lasers to stun we are going to need them!

  8. Hi Molly,
    What can I say, Beam me up Scottie, can your sources at Molly Media confirm that these outfits weren't the ones at auction at last years Star Trek Convention...it could have been worse they could have been out of Doctor Who....may the Force be with you........it was lost on the designers, I;m still howling with laughter.
