Opening Ceremony have just aquired this stunning Nigel Cabourn jacket to be added to their vast inventory of things that are way beyond my budget. But I can guarantee that it won't be staying on shelves very long. It's supposed to be a replica of the one worn by Sir Edmund Hillary's cameraman who accompanied Hillary and his climbing partner, Tenzing, to Everest where together they were eventually able to claim their place atop the world's highest peak, making them the first to ever successfully do so. The detailing on this jacket is unprecedented. Outiftted with metal-clip fastenings, a drawstring hood, and 4 button flapped pockets, there's not much more you can ask for in terms of little accessory pieces. But it's the utilization of contrast fabrics - a Harris tweed lower body and a Mackintosh upper - that really make this a standout from this Fall's collection.
Great jacket although can someone tell me what shoes the model is wearing?
