Yves Béhar Limited Edition Cashmere Hoodie
I want one but I can't have one, for three reasons:
1) Only 75 were produced for Lutz & Patmos back in in the Spring of 2002, and I suspect they're long since disappeared into some very stylish drawers and closets.
2) Even if one came up for sale at auction on eBay I'm certain the bidding would start in the high four figures and quickly ascend to five, more than I'd be willing to pay.
3) I'm not nearly cool enough to wear one.
But that doesn't mean I can't love the idea of it.
Consider the hoodie's features:
1) Each cashmere fiber was coated with Teflon to make the garment water-repellent
2) Straight body
3) Ergonomic sideseams
4) Riri zippers
5) Small shoulders
6) All seams fully fashioned
7) Deep tubular hems
8) Packs into separate nylon bag for storage, traveling and protection from "humidity and moths"
My best guess is that the hoodie cost $3,000 new when it came out four years ago.
Note: if anyone reading this knows the model up top, tell her to have that mole on her neck checked yesterday; I don't like the look of it one bit.

It's a mole? I was wondering if that thing on her neck was an insect. Perhaps it's some kind of fashion statement -- it could be a ladybug, a beetle, some kind of smallish cockroach, maybe even an engorged tick (ew) or bedbug (EEW!): "If you wear this hoodie you'll look so hot that even a cockroach on your neck won't detract from your superb sense of style!" Or possibly the remnants of an old hickey: "If you wear this hoodie you'll look so hot that you'll get covered with hickeys!"
Or, a mole -- "If you pose for a photograph wearing this hoodie you'll look so hot that some doctor will see the picture and notice that hideous growth on your neck and advise you to seek out a dermatologist who might save your life!"
