NIGEL CABOURN ARCHIVE
For the seventh installment of our archives series, we were lucky enough to visit Nigel Cabourn’s office and shoot his personal collection of military wear. Nigel’s collection is one of the worlds largest, and contains some really special pieces dating back to the 19th Century. These pieces provide Nigel with a constant stream of inspiration from which to draw ideas for his collections. We feel that this is one of the strongest archive shoots yet.
