Souvenir jackets arerelatively new in the world of fashion, especially compared with other trends which can be traced back centuries. Their origins come from the WWII occupation of Japan by American forces.
Although formed fromtumultuousbeginnings,this souvenir jacket represents the sort of culturallink-up which executes so well. This sheer version uses Kapital's 'Mosquito Net' material for a super light and see-through finish. Breaking up the deep black colour are depictions of the Kapital 'RAIN SKULL' which is a four-eyed skull and bones reminiscent of the imagery young G.I. soldiers would put on jackets as souvenirs of their Japanese tour.
