Adam Rippon donates Olympic costume to Smithsonian

Adam Rippon announced on Twitter on Monday that the skating costume he wore at the 2018 PyeongChang Olympics will be donated to the Smithsonian museum.

The costume, consisting of a bejeweled shirt, pants, and even his skates, will be on display “soon” at the National Museum of American History, according to Rippon’s post.

The blades of his boots are engraved with his name. Rippon actually wore three costumes in PyeongChang: his short program costume, plus his individual and team event free skate costumes. They were similar, but it’s the individual free skate costume going to the museum.
