According to The Daily Mail, Moss and Campbell will wear classic outfits by top designers such as Vivienne Westwood and Alexander McQueen in a ­spectacular music show at the London stadium on Sunday, August 12.

"Organizers wanted the best of British - and that's exactly what they've got," The Mirror quoted a source as saying. "The models were all keen to take part because it will be such a memorable event."

"British style is known around the world for innovation and creativity, so it's right that it will be celebrated as part of the show - it will look amazing," the source said.

Moss, 38, and Campbell, 42, were part of the original generation of supermodels and lingerie model Huntington-Whiteley, 25, is regularly voted as one of the most beautiful women in the world.

The closing ceremony, as London hands over the torch to Rio de Janeiro for 2016, is titled 'A Symphony of British Music' and will feature work from classical composer Edward Elgar to pop star Adele.

Kim Gavin, who has been appointed as creative director and choreographer for the ceremony, has promised an extravaganza involving "our most globally successful musicians" as well as rising stars.

Gavin, who also directed the Diana memorial concert in 2007, said it would be "the biggest after-show party the show being the sport".

"We want to create a fabulous emotional experience, something that people will remember for years to come. It will be an elegant mash-up of British music," he added.

Stars rumored to perform include Sir Paul McCartney and Sir Elton John.
