Internet Explorer and clip-path

After more in depth research, when working with the image directly, IE supports clip as in rectangular shapes only but not clipPath complicated shapes.

My solution was to add the image to an SVG as below, and this time it works in both Chrome and IE9+.

Demo JsFiddle

body {
  background-color: #e0e0e0;
}

#image-wrapper {
  position: relative;
}

.svg-background,
.svg-image {
  clip-path: url(#clip-triangle);
}

.svg-image {
  -webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease 0.2s;
  -moz-transition: all 0.5s ease 0.2s;
  opacity: 1;
  transition: all 0.5s ease 0.2s;
}

svg.clip-svg {
  height: 250px;
  position: absolute;
  width: 250px;
}

#svg-1 {
  left: 0px;
  top: 0px;
}

<div id="image-wrapper">
  <svg id="svg-1" class="clip-svg">
        <rect class="svg-background" width="300" height="300" fill="#ffffff" />
        <image id="img-1" class="svg-image" width="300" height="300" xlink:href="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5nre6cxkQ1qbs7p5o1_r1_500.jpg" />
    </svg>
</div>
<svg id="svg-defs">
    <defs>
        <clipPath id="clip-triangle">
            <polygon points="0 0, 100 0, 112 13, 240 13, 240 250, -250 250"/>
        </clipPath>
    </defs>
</svg>
