After 16 days, the 2012 Olympics came to an end in London last night with a Brit-centric closing ceremony that included one mega British fashion moment! The most famous faces to ever come from the United Kingdom joined together to strut down a stadium-size, Union Jack-shaped runway to the tune of David Bowie’s “Fashion.” (Fashion! Turn to the left! Fashion! Turn to the right! We are the goon squad, and we’re coming to town!) Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell (both in Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen) led Lily Cole (in Erdem), Lily Donaldson (in Vivienne Westwood), Georgia May Jagger (in Victoria Beckham), and more, all wearing glittering gold gowns designed by the country’s famous fashion houses. Click through the gallery for all the details on the closing ceremony’s model moment. (Next stop, Rio! The Brazilians better bring it! Gisele, that means you.)

I am a little irritated you made no mention of the gorgeous and hard-working DAVID GANDY but, that’s ok, guess everyone has a little lapse in judgement from time to time. It’s a shame that he works just as hard (if not harder) to make a name for himself as the first true male super model and then in magnanimous moments such as these he is still overlooked and not credited for his contrubution to the fashion scene. He woudn’t have been asked to participate in these ceremonies if he was just another random catwalker. Please add credit where credit is due, he has plenty of fans that enjoy celebrating his success.
