Cute Chic HOSHIHIME Vintage Japanese Japan Pheonix Phoenix Embroidered Yokosuka Jumper Bomber Sukajan Souvenir Jacket S

Jewel-Tone Hō-ō Bird and Rose Embroidery on Black Satin with Silver Sleeves

Description

A striking vintage Hoshihime sukajan centered on a flamboyant phoenix-inspired bird surrounded by richly colored flowers. Worked across a glossy black satin ground, the embroidery glows in coral red, violet, lavender, cobalt blue, ivory, and deep green.

The large back composition features the long-tailed bird in flight among three oversized blossoms. Its dramatic wings and curling feathers sweep diagonally across the jacket, giving the design a lively, almost theatrical sense of motion.

The front continues the story with a smaller bird embroidered over one chest and red-and-blue floral emblems over the other. Pale silver sleeves frame the dark body, while black-and-gray striped ribbing lends the jacket a crisp monochrome structure.

Bold without becoming visually heavy, this is a particularly wearable Hoshihime design for collectors of Japanese street fashion, embroidered outerwear, floral tattoo imagery, and expressive vintage bomber jackets.

Collector’s Hook

The palette is the magic here: icy silver sleeves, midnight satin, jewel-toned flowers, and a fantastical phoenix that seems to unfurl directly from the fabric. It is dramatic from across the room and unexpectedly delicate when viewed up close.

Embroidery & Color Architecture

Back

The back is dominated by an elaborate long-tailed bird with outstretched wings. Layered blue, lavender, ivory, purple, and coral threads create a softly iridescent effect against the black satin.

Three large blossoms anchor the composition: one red, one blue, and one violet-red. Their exaggerated scale gives the embroidery a tattoo-art sensibility while preserving the ornamental elegance associated with Japanese souvenir jackets.

Front

One chest features a smaller matching bird in flight. The opposite side carries a red flower and a blue rosette containing a decorative character-like emblem.

Condition

Pre-loved vintage condition with signs of age-appropriate wear.

The satin retains an attractive sheen, and the embroidery remains vivid and visually strong. Natural surface creasing, light handling wear, and minor irregularities consistent with previous use may be present.

No major damage is immediately apparent in the supplied photographs. Please examine every image carefully, as the photographs form an important part of the condition description.

Measurements

Approximate measurements in centimeters:

A = 60 cm
B = 50 cm
C = 74 cm
D = 50 cm
E = 35 cm

Please consult the shop’s Sukajan Sizing Guide for the corresponding A–E measuring positions. Comparing these measurements with a jacket that already fits comfortably is recommended.

Styling & Display

This jacket pairs naturally with black denim, wide-leg trousers, cropped pants, boots, sneakers, or a simple monochrome base that allows the embroidery to remain the focal point.

Its compact vintage proportions also make it an appealing option for women, smaller-framed wearers, and collectors seeking a fitted sukajan rather than an oversized bomber silhouette.

When not worn, the large back composition gives the jacket enough presence to be displayed as textile art.
