Who? Victoria Pendleton
What? A few months ago Victoria Pendleton was best known for an excellence in cycling. Now? It feels like fashion has become her thing. Take last night: Pendo took to the red carpet for the British Olympic Ball in an asymmetric black gown. The result? Effortlessly chic. We just wish some of her Team GB pals would take a leaf out of her book (or wardrobe).
Where? The Grosvenor House Hotel, London. The ball was attended by Team GB Olympians from all 26 summer sports and over 70 London 2012 Olympic medallists including Rebecca Adlington, Anthony Joshua and Greg Rutherford.
