Bob Marley's daughter to design Jamaican Olympic team clothing

The reggae icon’s daughter will design the entire team’s Olympic, podium and ceremony wear, including that of the fastest man in the world, Usain Bolt.

Bolt is the standout performer in the Jamaican team and a global audience will be watching in London 2012 to see if he breaks the world 100m record.

Cedella Marley’s designs have taken inspiration from the "vibrant colours and patterns" of Jamaica, as well as from the country’s African roots.

A track runner in high school, she began designing clothes while she was on tour with Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers, a band made up of her brothers and sisters.
