Size 50, made in Italy, with its Gucci hanger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Piece\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmong the garments Tom Ford designed for Gucci, the embroidered souvenir jackets of Spring\/Summer 2003 hold a particular place. They took the Japanese sukajan, a form born in the port towns of the post-war years, and rebuilt it in Italian satin with the needlework of a couture atelier. This example is described as belonging to that period, and it carries the full programme on both faces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first side is ivory satin with grass-green raglan sleeves and a twisted cord piping along each seam. A crested bird perches above a red blossom on the right chest, white flowers open on the left, and a long-tailed bird crosses the back among flowering branches. The colour is calm and the stitching dense, with every feather laid in a separate direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurned inside out, the jacket changes register. The ground becomes a soft sand, the sleeves a salmon pink, and the embroidery follows the shunga tradition of the woodblock print: paired figures in patterned robes at the chest and back, beneath plum blossom, with a small mountain landscape near the collar. The imagery is intimate and intended for adult collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"jp-details\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gucci, Tom Ford period\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reversible zip-front souvenir jacket with rib collar, cuffs and hem\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFabric:\u003c\/strong\u003e 63% viscose rayon, 37% silk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRib trim:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% cotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEmbroidery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Birds and flowers; figure scenes after Edo prints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ivory with green sleeves; sand with salmon sleeves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 (Italian, menswear)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 57 cm (22.4 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 65.5 cm (25.8 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSleeve length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 91 cm (35.8 in), from centre back to cuff\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eZip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Antiqued metal pull with interlocking G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccompanied by:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gucci hanger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade in:\u003c\/strong\u003e Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecorded as clean, with no conspicuous marks; the satin keeps its lustre on both faces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA short opening in the stitching at the hem beside the zip base, and faint toning on the ivory satin, are visible in the photographs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition grade \u003cstrong\u003eAB (very good)\u003c\/strong\u003e on the Japanese scale; see \u003ca href=\"\/es\/blogs\/news\/japanese-condition-ranks-explained\"\u003eJapanese condition ranks, explained\u003c\/a\u003e.
