The souvenir jacket and its ‘70s oriental embroidery will undoubtedly be sticking around for AW16, as Hayato Shiroyama’s Black by Vanquish produce a sleek rendition into their usual offering of indigo-saturated denim. Evolved past its cultural origins, this authentic revision has an added panther heavily embroidered to the chest and back – a spirit animal that symbolizes courage and power. Originally created for American GIs to bring home after the post-war occupation of Japan, the souvenir jacket is an essential for the coming season.
